2017 Kia Sportage revealed at LA Auto Show



2017 Kia Sportage Redesign

Kia first gave us a look at the new Kia Sportage back in August, and now the company is set to reveal all the details on the new crossover at the LA Auto Show. The 2017 Kia Sportage features a complete redesign from the models of previous years.

The 2017 Kia Sportage has a more rounded exterior, but keeps the distinctive Kia grille. The new Sportage is 1.6-inches longer than the previous generations. The wheelbase is 1.2-inches longer while maintaining the same width. The larger size helps to increase the cabin space of the Sportage. New materials and technologies help to update the interior of the Sportage.

Kia has added a more premium feel to the interior of the 2017 Sportage. The cabin is available in two different color schemes, a single-tone black or a two-tone dark and light grey or black and beige.
