What are the running and servicing costs of a Kia Sportage?
You should service yourSportage at your authorised Kia dealer or service centre, however servicing it at third party mechanics that follow OEM servicing instructions should not impact the Sportage's warranty.
What is the warranty on a Kia Sportage?
The Kia Sportage offers a 7 year unlimited kilometre warranty. This is separate to the warranty on offer under Australian Consumer Law which can be greater for certain parts based on what is deemed as a reasonable period of time.
Choosing between the Kia Sportage and Hyundai Tucson comes down almost entirely to styling preference, as they share their underpinnings. That includes the three powertrains available across both model ranges. The Tucson has lower capped-price servicing rates but the Sportage has a longer warranty.
The Mazda CX-5 also offers a choice of petrol, turbo-petrol and turbo-diesel four-cylinder engines, though its turbo-petrol is considerably more powerful than the Sportage's. However, the CX-5 is one of the smaller models in its class and tighter inside than the spacious Sportage.
Kia has no rival for the Toyota RAV4 hybrid in Australia, but the Sportage has a similarly well-sorted ride/handling tune to the wider RAV4 range and a similarly spacious interior while offering more modern infotainment.
Speaking of modernity, the Sportage is much fresher than the venerable Nissan X-Trail. The Mitsubishi Outlander is as new as the Kia and offers the option of a third row of seating, though it's no longer available as a diesel.
The cheapest Kia Sportage is the S (FWD) that starts from $31,300.
The most expensive Kia Sportage is the GT-LINE HEV (FWD) that starts from $53,000.
