Kia Sportage 2011
Kia Sportage 2011 Specs and Features
The 2.4 liter DOHC 16-valve-4-cylinder engine of the car is capable of producing 176 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and the car comes with both, 6-speed manual and automatic transmission. The top speed of the car stands at a handsome 114 mph and it takes the CUV 9.3 seconds to hit 60 mph from 0. The vehicle is an everyday car that might not do so well if you plan to go off-roading with it (though it does have a AWD system). The curb weight (3,186 pounds) of the car is lower as compared to its competitors which makes your drive a smooth one.
Used Kia Sportage Models
While the Kia Sportage 2011 is not a very costly SUV, you might still want to have a look at the used Kia Sportage models available in the markets. The last Kia Sportage model ran from 2005 to 2010 with additions to the Sportage model that was released in 2002. There were no significant modifications in the design and the quality of the material used but the interior of the car was bettered with more room and leg space.
In 2002, which was the final year of production of the Kia Sportage model, Kia Sportage 2002 was revealed with a number of changes to the looks and the interior of the vehicle. The first ever model hit the market in 1995 but buying the earlier models would not be highly recommended. If you absolutely have to cut on the cost, you can go in for Kia Sportage 2002 and the models released after that.
The Final Say: Kia Sportage 2011 Review
The high-end features, improved quality of material, better performance and a striking new design make the Kia Sportage 2011 a perfect choice for people looking to buy crossover SUV. Equipped with all accessories and riding not so high on the price, both the LX and the EX Kia Sportage 2011 models are among the best in the market.
