Which Kia Sportage trim should I buy?

• LX: The entry trim uses the 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine with a six-speed automatic transmission, and it is the least expensive way into the lineup.
• X-Line: This trim adds off-road appearance touches, including different front and rear bumpers, a tread-like stitching pattern for SynTex artificial leather upholstery, and all-season tires on 19-inch wheels.
• EX: This trim adds to the equipment list while keeping the Sportage’s practical, mainstream character.
• EX Premium: This trim adds 19-inch wheels and is a strong choice if you want a more upscale feel without moving to the top of the range.

What Kia Sportage do most buyers choose?

The Kia Sportage years with the most listings are 2024, 2023, and 2025.

These higher-volume years tend to be popular because they give you a wider selection of trims, prices, and equipment levels. They also tend to sit in the sweet spot between newer features and used-car value.

What is the Kia Sportage's resale value?

Most Sportage model years are down year over year, which is good news if you’re shopping used and want more value than a new one. The biggest drops are concentrated in older and mid-cycle years, while the newest model years are falling by smaller amounts. That pattern suggests recent inventory is still holding closer to its original pricing, even as the broader used market for this model softens.

The 2026, 2016, and 2025 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
