The all-new Kia Sportage crossover is now on sale in the UK, earlier than expected, with a high speci cation Sportage First Edition version. The full line-up, including petrol and additional diesel versions, will go on sale in the UK from November.
The Sportage First Edition is a unique version that comes complete with All Wheeldrive, a choice of manual or auto transmissions and an ef cient common-rail turbodiesel engine. The 2.0-litre CRDi engine emits 156g/km CO2 and achieves a combined cycle economy of 47.1mpg – 31g/km less and 7.3mpg more respectively than the outgoing model.
Available in a choice of five colours, the First Edition includes a full leather interior, dual zone climate control, automatic rain-sensing wipers, LED daytime running lights and 18in alloys.
Final development of the Sportage’s chassis in the UK has ensured that the ride and handling are optimised for British road conditions.
