Superb Capabilities Impress Vancouver Island Kia Motorists

The 2012 Kia Sportage is a four-door compact crossover SUV that is available to Duncan Kia drivers in four well-equipped models, so there’s an updated Sportage for every consumer: the base LX, the upgraded EX, the deluxe EX Luxury and the top-of-the-line SX. All of these trims are able to tow up to 2,000 lbs.

The LX, EX and EX Luxury employs a 2.4L four-cylinder engine under the hood that is capable of producing 176 hp and 168 lb/ft of torque. Six-speed manual transmission is paired with the engine in the LX, while six-speed Steptronic automatic transmission is optional for Vancouver Island Kia customers getting the LX and standard in the EX and EX Luxury.

For Parksville Kia Sportage lovers looking for more power, the SX uses a 2.0L turbocharged GDI four-cylinder engine that can deliver an exceptional 260 hp and 269 lb/ft of torque. This engine is equipped with six-speed Steptronic automatic transmission and a DYNAMAX Intelligent AWD system, which is optional for the rest of the trims.

Depending on the transmission and drivetrain, Vancouver Island Kia buyers and lessees can get gas savings as amazing as 6.2 L/100-km on the highway and 9.4 L/100-km in the city for the 2.4L. The SX exhibits fuel efficiency of 7.7 L/100-km highway and 10 L/100-km city.
