Leading is in the Sportage’s DNA – just as it’s in the DNA of Sportage drivers.
The 5th generation Sportage does not break tradition and continues to be a leader on all the most important aspects – including some aspects most vehicle manufacturers would not even think to pay attention to.
With features such as state-of-the-art technology, advanced designs and world-beating driver and safety experiences, it’s no wonder why everyone is talking about the Kia Sportage. Here’s an in-depth look at why the Sportage may be for you.
SPACE
The Kia Sportage redefines how we look at interior space in a vehicle. At the center of this luxurious and sporty cockpit sits a wonderfully sculpted curved display, integrating a 12,3 inch driver instrument cluster and a 12,3 inch high-tech multimedia touchscreen with split screen display for your driving requirements, information, connection and entertainment needs.
LUXURY
The Sportage offers the ultimate experience in comfort – from cloth and artificial leather to premium suede and artificial leather. Maybe you would like the luxury of having an all leather interior. Furthermore with the Sportage GT-line you can have GT-line emblem embossing designed to perfection.
This is an urban-centric SUV that connects you with your mind the way only a Sportage can. The clean, powerful contours rippling along the side, are highlighted by its new chrome and glossy black window surround mouldings. Accentuated by the dynamic rear spoiler, with razor-style signature LED taillights and sporty rear bumper – what a sight it really is.
The subtle ambient lighting creates luxurious touch points, consisting of a 6-speaker sound system making sure you’re always surrounded by the sounds that move you and get you where you need to be.
On top of that, it comes with a fully automatic dual-zone climate control system with separate controls for driver and passenger aids in creating a space that will inspire you wherever you may go.
And with so many colours on display, it’s really up to you which one you want. There’s Tricoat white pearl, Orange fusion, Experience Green, Blue flame, Splash lemon and many more.
INNOVATION
Without a doubt the Sportage has a dynamic, optimal and engaging driving experience debuting various technological breakthroughs such as a wireless phone charger, rear USB charging ports and multimode control display.
In addition if the intelligent front lighting system detects another car driving in either the same direction as you or the opposite direction to you, it will automatically switch the LEDs to low beam to prevent dazzling the other driver.
The rotary gear shift dial operates using shift-by-wire technology, enabling effortless gear shifting. Just as importantly from a safety perspective, it will automatically shift to the parking gear P if the driver forgets to do so. This feature is only available on GT-line S.
When creating the interior for the all-new Kia Sportage, the idea was to create a space that felt like home. Another incredible feature is the special ambient mood lighting system that you can customize to suit your mood whenever you’re on the road. There’s a wide range of colours to choose from to suit your journey, however you can also choose to automatically change the colour when you change drive modes. This feature is only available on GT-line S.
Most importantly the drivewise technology is ideal for all-round safety – keeping you and your loved ones protected, constantly inspiring us to put safety as a top priority while developing the Sportage. That’s why every Sportage comes with Kia’s acclaimed in-house developed DriveWise technology. This industry-leading system integrates a variety of advanced features to minimise the potential of accidents and maximise on all-round protection. Encompassing features such as Blind-spot Collision warning, Care follow assist & smart cruise control, Forward collision-avoidance assist and 360 degrees surround view monitor (SVW).
As far as SUV’s are concerned we are really proud of this one. The new Kia Sportage is the perfect catalyst for convenience and luxury in a motor vehicle. With world class technological innovations in place, this is the ideal car for you, your friends and your loved ones.
Stand out and lead by example with the all-new Kia Sportage. Your best journey is yet to come but with Kia it’s already here.
