Just purchased a 2026 Kia Sportage SX Prestige HEV

I purchased a 2026 Kia Sportage SX Prestige HEV on 13 August and I'm loving it compared to the 2024 Toyota Crown Limited HEV I traded in. The Sportage engine and overall interior noise is so much quieter and the engine is smoother than the Crown. I would have waited another year to trade, but my wife doesn't drive anymore so we gave her 2018 Kia Sportage SX (12,834 miles) to our grand daughter to reclaim space in the garage. Besides, I like having access to a SUV and my sportier car driving days are over, so I traded early and I'm glad I did!

Welcome aboard! And thank you for signing up. I'm glad you found us. Congratulations on your brand new Kia Sportage SX Prestige! I'm a little surprised to hear the Sportage has a quieter interior and smoother engine than the Toyota Crown. But I guess Toyota leaves that sort of thing for Lexus. That's one of the things I love about Kia - there's no "luxury" brand to save the good stuff for. The seating position is definitely going to be higher in the Sportage as the Crown is sort of an in-between kind of vehicle... I'm sure both Sportages will take good care of you and your family for years to come...
