2006 Kia Sportage Lx By billtkatt on - Updated Oct 15, 2011
I purchased this vehicle used with about 11,000 miles on it. I have had absolutely no mechanical problems with this vehicle, and am very pleased with the gas mileage! It is approxmately 27 MPG, and i only have to fill it up about once every couple weeks.
I was looking for a vehicle that could hold four persons and our two dogs, and this holds that many fine. It's not very comfortable for the kids in the back seat, but they fit!
The sound from the stereo is better than expected and as i love listening to music while i drive, this is good!
For a Kia and a SUV, this looks great and fits me perfectly. The LX version has a better interior than the standard version and i'm glad i purchased this.
There is a 4 and 6-cylinder version, and i have the "4 banger" which is able to get up hills and get up to speed fine with me. If your looking for more power, then get the 6 instead, but this may decrease the gass mileage for you.
The price was a little high but it was worth it. If your looking for a lower-priced SUV i would recommend this vehicle.
