2006 Kia Sportage review from Korea

Nothing has gone wrong.

I just got my Sportage EX with the Luxury package. We have two young children and with the car seats in the back seat, there is still plenty of room. My wife and I love driving it. We live in Colorado and it handles perfectly through the snow. One of the good features with the Sportage is the side curtain airbags. That was a huge seller with having kids. We love the sporty look with having a family. The controls are super easy to adjust and use. Plus with having the leather seats, the messes the kids make are super easy to clean. I'm 5'10 and the seat doesn’t raise high enough for my legs and after long periods, it gets a little uncomfortable. With only 300 miles on it, I'm seeing about 18 miles per gallon, so hopefully it will get better. I also like the split rear door. You can open the whole door or just the window part. Definitely the best value in a SUV.
