2018 Kia Sportage LX AWD

Meet the 2018 Kia Sportage in Burnished Copper—a compact SUV that manages to look classy in the parking lot and confident when the road turns unpredictable. That warm, metallic copper finish has just the right amount of glow, and it pairs perfectly with a straightforward, comfortable black cloth interior that’s ready for daily duty.

Under the hood is a responsive 4-cylinder gasoline engine matched to an automatic transmission that can still feel engaging when you want it to, thanks to a driver-selectable mode and Sportmatic-style shifting. And because life doesn’t always happen on perfectly dry pavement, this Sportage brings the reassurance of full-time all-wheel drive—great for rainy commutes, sketchy gravel driveways, or those surprise weather days when you’d rather not white-knuckle it home.

It’s built to feel steady and composed, with a suspension tuned for real-world roads and the kind of confident braking and control systems that help you stay planted when hills, slick spots, or sudden stops show up. Steering is light and easy in town, but still precise enough to make errands and lane changes feel effortless.

Inside, it’s refreshingly practical: supportive seating, smart storage throughout, multiple power outlets for your gear, and a cabin layout that makes sense the moment you sit down. The rear seat folds to adapt when your “quick stop” turns into a larger haul, and the cargo area is made even easier to manage with liftgate access and helpful lighting.

Visibility is on your side, with fog lamps for murky mornings and a back-up camera that takes the stress out of tight parking situations. Add in everyday conveniences like cruise control and an easy-to-live-with climate system, and you’ve got an SUV that’s ready to be your dependable sidekick.

And for extra peace of mind, a CARFAX report is available for this Sportage—so you can shop with confidence before you hit the road.
