2024 WHAT CAR? AWARDS Kia Sportage: ‘Best Family SUV’

For the second consecutive year, the Kia Sportage was awarded the ‘Best Family SUV’ award. The judges rated it ahead of all other rivals in one of the most popular and hotly contested classes in the UK.

The judging panel, made up of the magazine’s team of expert road testers, commented: “The Kia Sportage has a more comfortable ride than key rivals, yet it inspires confidence on winding roads, thanks to strong grip and accurate steering. You also get a smart-looking and user-friendly interior that offers a properly elevated driving position. And no matter where in the car you're sitting, there's plenty of head and leg room, and the Sportage feels pleasingly airy.”

The fifth-generation Kia Sportage was introduced early in 2022 and won What Car?’s ‘Best Family SUV’ award in 2023. Last year it was the UK’s fourth best-selling car overall, with 36,135 units finding homes with UK buyers. Available from Clarks of Kidderminster and offering a wide range of petrol, hybrid and plug-in hybrid options, the Sportage is priced from £29,375 on-the-road.
