Kia Sportage
Featuring a bold front end, the Sportage is another vehicle to have benefitted from the wisdom of Peter Schreyer. Kia adds to the fun this year by introducing a turbo engine. The SX will thus be equipped with a 2.0L 4-cylinder that delivers 260 hp via a 6-speed automatic transmission. Meanwhile, the base version comes with a 2.4L engine with a 6-speed manual or automatic.
