FIRST DRIVE: The Sportage is receiving some big changes from Kia for 2023. This SUV is meant to compete with the Honda CR-V, Mazda CX-5, Nissan Rogue, Hyundai Tucson and Toyota RAV4. On the outside you will notice a little larger Sportage, LED headlights, optional 19in wheels, and new bodywork. On the inside you will be greeted by more passenger volume, (2) 12.in screens, and new styling. Under the hood is a 2.5L inline-4 that is mated to an 8-speed automatic and AWD. Is the 2023 Kia Sportage X-Line a BETTER compact SUV than a Toyota RAV4?

My wife picked up one about a month ago, SX prestige in wolf grey. Amazing to say the least, it also has full LED lights all around outside & inside. Ventilated cooling seats, heated steering wheel, turn signals views on the dash, 360 view, & comes with a year of Kia Connect unlimited. Paid MSRP at $37,055 as well!!!

I love this new sportage! Not only is it class leading in cargo room and passenger room but also very distinctive not to mention the tech that most vehicles in this segment that don’t offer. However I think I would love to see the DRL’s were also the turn signals because honestly that would look really cool but then the whole headlight setup is different enough. The luxury is pretty decent or even better than it’s competitors and thank god a CVT was not added which a lot of the competitors do. Great review Joe excellent as always, keep up the work!

Probably wont be quite as reliable and trouble free as a comparable Honda, Toyota or Mazda, but about the same or better than anything from Nissan, GM and Ford. I do gotta say the rear seat amenities are second to none among affordably priced, non premium badge crossovers. Some real thought went into the design...especially the "hooks" on the back of the headrests where you can hang a tablet (with a holder that has a strap, if one doesnt exist I will design it and make millions😁) and plug it in to usb on the seatbacks themselves. Big kudos for that solution!

When my wife and I saw the reviews for the production model in Asia a few months ago, she said, "I NEED THAT"! I know you're in Florida and everything but those of us in NYC (and everywhere else North of the Masie-Dixie) wear sweaters in the spring/fall and big puffy coats in the winter. And the ladies carry those big honkin' bags year-round. Now...no more designer bags on the floor. No more wrinkled suit jackets. No more sweaters that slide off the back seat onto the back floor when I take a turn too hard. This is a great vehicle and that's a small but extremely convenient feature.

I love the color. I feel like I haven’t seen it since the 05 Mustang and 07 Camry.

Joe, question? What sub compact would you recommend in terms of horsepower? The new rogue 3 liter cvt scares me a little, the sportage hybrid has the outdated 6speed auto, the RAV4 physically does nothing for me. Never looked towards Mazda but could. My biggest issue is simply horsepower for a sub compact. I want more power and torque for the size. Please advise!!

CX 5 with the turbo. 256 hp over 300 lb ft torque. Great reliability and fun to drive. They are AWD, too

Sorry. I misread the post. Yes the CX 30 would be the one to consider. It has the same turbo engine, hp and torque with standard AWD as the CX 5. Also a fun to drive vehicle. Zoom, zoom 😉

Kia/Hyundai a really upping their game. this will seriously undercut the RAV4 and CRV which cost a great deal more. They are pursuing a winning strategy of giving the customer more for less. This is how you gain marketshare. Korean products are becoming excellent.

This is a nice redesign. The back of the vehicle should get a zunk. Because the lower part of vent does look awful. Other then that I'm not completely sold on this model.
