CarGurus Analysis: 2022 Kia Sportage
overall

Summary
With 118 currently listed for sale near Orleans, ON and an average price of $23,375 CAD, 25.4% of 2022 Kia Sportages for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favourably reviewed: Owners rated the 2022 Kia Sportage 4 / 5 stars and CarGurus experts gave it a 7.67 / 10.
100.0% of 2022 Sportage models on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2022 Kia Sportage stands out as a stylish, sophisticated, safe compact SUV with an available turbocharged engine that gives it a speedier character than its size might suggest. Kia had not redesigned it since 2017, yet the Sportage still comes across as current, with technology that remains up to date. It also sits in the middle of Kia’s crossover lineup, which helps define it as a practical, mainstream choice rather than the brand’s smallest or largest SUV.
For 2022, the Sportage is offered in LX, LX Nightsky, EX, EX Premium S, and SX trim levels with front- or all-wheel drive. LX Nightsky is new for this year, replacing the LX S version, and the EX gains a standard panoramic sunroof. In Canada, pricing ranges from $25,995 to $40,195, plus a destination charge of $1,850. The SX test vehicle was equipped with the turbocharged engine and standard AWD, and the review notes that it was also fitted with a cargo mat and a tow hitch.
Buyers are likely to be drawn to the 2022 Sportage for its mix of features, value, and performance. Owners also praise the comfortable interior and power. On the other hand, some reviewers mention limited rear legroom, low acceleration, and the absence of remote start functionality, so it is not without compromises.

The front panel is geared to the driver making everything easy to use and see. It's very roomy considering it's compact size. Handles well even in snowy conditions.

I had a Kia Sportage for twenty-five tears and it was a great vehicle. This 2022 I purchased seems to be just as good and even better with all the updates. Plenty of power, simple but doable controls, good looking, perfect use of the fold down seats and comfortable interior.

Reviewed a 2022 Kia Sportage on Jul 13, 2024
The car was not the same one pictured . It had a broken windshield, and had uneven sharp sheet metal riveted to both side view mirrors . The rear view mirror was found broken in the back seat. The front bumper was scraped white. I was assured it was it was a new car while they acknowledged it had 2 previous owners. I offered a lower price to compensate for the repairs the car would need. They then showed me their website with a much higher price than advertised on CarGurus. I couldn’t believe that they were trying to convince me the price on this site was inaccurate . I thanked them for their time and decided that my money would be spent elsewhere on a car that isn’t so obviously damaged.

Is the 2022 Kia Sportage a good car?
Generally — the 2022 Kia Sportage earns a 4/5 user rating and a 7.67/10 expert rating. The standout strength is Look and feel at 9/10.
Owners consistently praise its features, value, and performance, while also highlighting the comfortable interior and strong power. In practical terms, that makes it a sensible compact SUV if you want a mainstream crossover with a more upscale feel and enough capability to suit everyday commuting and family use.
There are 31.8% of listings priced as good or great deals, which points to a market with some attractive opportunities.
Is the 2022 Kia Sportage reliable?
Owners rate it 4/5, a solid signal of long-term satisfaction.
Owner feedback also points to a dependable, trouble-free ownership experience for many shoppers, with praise centred on its long-term value and overall satisfaction. The powertrain is described as competitive, and the SUV’s smooth, compliant ride adds to the sense that it is built to be easy to live with.
Kia also frames the Sportage as a value-focused choice, which can help reduce ownership stress if you buy a well-kept example. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is finding one that has been neglected or poorly maintained.
What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Kia Sportage?
Key things to evaluate:
- Trim level: The LX is the entry point, while the LX Nightsky adds equipment over the base trim and the EX gains a standard panoramic sunroof. The EX and SX also bring more safety equipment, so base-trim shoppers should check which features are missing before deciding.
- Powertrain: Most Sportages use a 2.4-litre four-cylinder engine with 181 horsepower and 175 lb-ft of torque, while the SX gets a turbocharged setup with 237 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque. The standard engine is competent, but the turbo model is the one to seek if you want stronger acceleration.
- Safety package: The EX and SX include forward-collision warning with pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, and lane-keeping assistance. Blind-spot warning with rear cross-traffic alert is also fitted to those trims and the LX Nightsky.
- Infotainment: You get an 8-inch touchscreen, Bluetooth, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The SX adds UVO Intelligence connected services, satellite radio, wireless smartphone charging, and an 8-speaker Harman Kardon audio system.
- Fuel efficiency: No fuel-consumption figure is stated in the provided data.
Which 2022 Kia Sportage trim should I buy?
The 2022 Kia Sportage is offered in 5 trim levels: LX, LX Nightsky, EX, EX Premium S, and SX.
Here's the short version:
- LX: This is the starting point if you want the Sportage’s core design, standard touchscreen, and basic everyday usability at the lowest entry cost.
- LX Nightsky: This is the better-value pick if you want a step up from the base trim, especially because it adds blind-spot warning and rear cross-traffic alert.
- EX: This trim is the sweet spot for many shoppers because it adds the panoramic sunroof and the full safety suite, making it a strong balance of comfort and equipment.
- EX Premium S: Choose this if you want a more upscale-feeling version of the EX with additional equipment, while staying below the top trim.
- SX: This is the one to buy if you want the turbocharged engine, standard AWD, the best audio system, and the most complete feature set.
The safety-package trim note is simple: the EX and SX carry the most complete driver-assistance equipment, while the LX Nightsky adds blind-spot warning with rear cross-traffic alert.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Kia Sportage?
This is a moderate market for selective buyers, with enough inventory to shop carefully and enough deal activity to find value.
- Deal availability: 31.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 503 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 12.98% compared with last year.
If you find a listing below $22,105 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2022 Kia Sportage's resale value?
The current average of $22,175 CAD sits slightly below last year's $25,484 CAD.
That softer pricing suggests the Sportage has become more accessible for used buyers, but it also means future sellers may face a more competitive resale environment. If you buy well and keep the vehicle in strong condition, you may be better positioned to protect value when it is time to sell. The current market also suggests that buyers are still willing to consider the model, especially when the price is right.
Vehicles with solid owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Is the 2022 Kia Sportage safe?
The 2022 Kia Sportage earns an Acceptable headlight rating from IIHS, which is enough to put it over the line for an IIHS Top Safety Pick laurel.
It earns an 8/10 safety score from our experts.
The EX and SX trims include forward-collision warning with pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, and lane-keeping assistance. Blind-spot warning with rear cross-traffic alert is also included on those trims and the LX Nightsky, while the SX adds adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go capability.
One caveat is that only the SX earns the Acceptable headlight rating mentioned above, so trim choice matters if safety equipment is a priority.
Should I buy a 2022 Kia Sportage or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2022 if:
- 31.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 12.98% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4/5 — a solid satisfaction signal.
- It keeps the stylish, up-to-date feel of the pre-redesign Sportage.
Consider the 2023 if:
- At $27,298 CAD, the 2023 costs more than the current year's $22,175 CAD average.
- It brings a more distinctive design and a stronger all-around appeal.
The bottom line: If you want the better value today, the 2022 is the smarter buy. If you can stretch for a newer and more distinctive Sportage, the 2023 is the better long-term choice, but price-sensitive shoppers should focus on the 2022 while deals remain available.
