New to the Forum - 1st time Kia owner

Hi all,

I purchased a 2025 Sportage EX Hybrid AWD about a month ago. First Kia for me. Absolutely loving it and super awesome to find this group.

Welcome aboard! And thank you for signing up. I'm glad you found us. Congratulations on your new Kia Sportage! :) What did the Sportage replace for you?
 
Thank you!

My trade was a 2020 Nissan Rogue that I bought used in '23. I just never grew to like the CVT. 🤮

Rental company put me in a '24 Sportage last summer and I loved it after a week of driving it. I've been waiting for the Hybrids to be included in the 1.99% financing and they finally did.

Nice upgrade! The Nissan Rogue isn't a bad vehicle, but not as nice as the Sportage, in my opinion. I'm not crazy about CVTs, but I hear Toyota/Lexus does them really well. 1.99% financial is pretty good these days!
 
I really loved the cabin of the Rogue. Super comfy and roomy. The vehicle had been in an accident and had had the whole front end rebuilt so I was happy to move on from it. Just took the Sportage on its first road trip to a concert in Detroit. I love how this vehicle rides. I think KIA has arrived.

Yes, I've liked the Rogue for a few generations now. And NIssan has been making some pretty good products - despite not selling a whole lot lately...

Yes, Kia has certainly arrived. The playing field has been leveled!
