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 entry point, so it makes sense if you want the lowest-cost way into the Sportage lineup and are comfortable with the most basic equipment.
• LX Nightsky: This is the best-value pick if you want a little more safety equipment without moving too far up the price ladder, since it adds blind-spot warning with rear cross-traffic alert.
• EX: This is the smart middle-ground choice if you want a more complete feature set, including the core driver-assistance package and a standard panoramic sunroof.
• EX Premium S: Choose this if you want a more upscale feel and are willing to pay for extra equipment beyond the EX.
• SX: This is the one to buy if you want the turbocharged engine, standard AWD, adaptive cruise control, and the most premium tech and audio setup.
