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 more inventory to compare, which can make it easier to find the right trim, colour, and price. They also often 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, and many of the declines are double-digit drops. That pattern is favourable if you are shopping used, because it opens up more room for value compared with newer pricing. A few years are falling by smaller amounts, which suggests some versions are softening more slowly than others.

The 2014, 2016, and 2025 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
