This car was the right fit for me. I have been driving a 2 door sports car and trying to pile in a larger dog and my boyfriend is not very convient. I needed something bigger to take on adventures and this was it. My dog already loves it and will take naps in the back. Other than a rattling noise it is great. Oct 28, 2021

This SUV was a great value for what I paid. Overall it's austere vehicle, but very solid, well built and reliable. I'm not someone who pays extra for catchy/cliched marketing and Kia definitely fit that bill. I would definitely buy another Kia. Korean engineering is the best around these days, better than Japan, Germany, US - I think.Jan 13, 2015

Rear seats do not fold down all the way flat which is dissapointing when trying to "haul" stuff. Would be nice to have driver's side window go up automatically in addition to going down automatically. Other than that, really like the car - fabulous to drive!Jun 18, 2009
