User Review Comparison --
  • Love the design, powerful engine and AWD

    Among the top features and tech, the Kia Sportage L shines for its overall performance. Available in multiple powertrain options, this SUV suits for all types of driving conditions in Saudi Arabia. The 1.5L turbocharged engine especially impressed with power and torque with great refinements. But there is a bigger powerful engine also available, and with all wheel drive, the Sportage L could be a great SUV. Overall, be it highways, urban roads, and challenging landscapes, it works well.
