The 2008 Kia Sportage is the company’s compact crossover SUV. It’s built off of the Kia Spectra (which is the same as a Hyundai Elantra) car chassis, and this is good because it gives the little SUV a smooth ride and comfortable handing dynamics. The current-generation Sportage was introduced as a 2005 model.
While more recent Kia models feature better styling, the Kia design studios hadn’t quite hit the mark when they designed the Sportage back in 2002-03. Some lines are a bit off: awkward but not offensive (unlike the Pontiac Aztek that was considered awkward AND offensive). Inside, the design is much better. Curves are everywhere, and there is plenty of room.
