Thomas, at 9:55, the Smart Trunk function works even when you sit at the back corner of the vehicle, on the side, close to the rear tire. Trust me, I use the Smart Trunk on my Hyundai everytime I go shopping :D

Thank you for this great review! I actually prefer the Sportage over the Tucson in terms of side and rear design, but I prefer the Hyundai front. I also must say that the new cockpit with connected screens looks great. It's certainly going to be a hit, I've already seen three in the past few days:)
We wanted to buy the Tucson but bought the Sportage mainly because of the cockpit. And delivery time (UK): 3 weeks compared to 6 months! Had it for 8 days and loving it

Wow haha I was thinking on the same. As I have two SUV options to buy: The "cheap" one (The all new Sportage) or the "expensive" one: Lexus NX 350F Sport.
Why doesn’t Kia offer the new Sportage with adaptive dampers in the UK like they do in other markets? I actually tweeted to the author of an Auto Express review on the new Sportage asking why they weren’t offered in the UK, and he said that - and I’m quoting directly here - “it's probably down to the UK market aiming for a certain price on the car and choosing the manufacturing variances accordingly.” So maybe that could be why?
Of course this is always the reason, if the market doesn’t demand this feature, it will not be available. KIA is a mainstream car manufacturer and they need to sell lots of vehicles to make money because their profit margin is lower than the luxury brands. As a result, they do market analysis on each country and determine what are the best options/trims/packages to offer. Compared to Porsche for example where the available options will be the same throughout the entire world because they can have very high profit margin

Complaining about the noise at high speed? You forget that your car is fitted with winter tyres! I have this car (gt line s, hybrid) and its very quiet.
Thanks for helping me decide my next car. Kia have upped their game and their price. Love the interior but that face takes some getting used to. It’s the new T Roc for me despite the prospect of a lengthy wait.
just need to get the MFI certified cables for Apple. It's more expensive because cable manufacturer had to pay the license to Apple to get it certified
Very beautiful review bro 👌, actually i'm very confused between buying the sportage , the tucson (both hybrid ) or the skoda octavia e-tsi 1.5 mild hybrid I'm a person who really care about a very silent cabine in the road so what you recommend for me ?
I bought the kia and find it quiet. This review is on a car fitted with winter tyres and they are loud usually. Also tested on German motorway, which is fine really noisy : I travel every year from the uK to poland (through France, Belgium and Netherlands) and German motorways are the worst ( not even talking about construction zones every 20km, lol)
Why does the US not have the new one yet? But also look at all the rear features this thing has. This is why people are not looking at traditional car bodies for their next car asuch anymore. The automakers put a lot more effort into practical features in their CUVs!
Fantastic review, thank you Thomas! I have to say, the 'broken design' in the back looks much better with the two-tone scheme where the upper part is blacked out, alongside the rooftop all the way to the A-pillar. Shame they gave you the most boring color for the outside too, looks gorgeous in the green, blue and the moon grey.
Hey Thomas! Thank you for this great review. I just want to ask you a question. How do you compare this 2022 Kia Sportage with the Volvo XC40? Which one do you prefer in terms of practicality, driving experience, fuel consumption, and infotainment system? It would be very nice if you can make a side-by-side comparison of the two vehicles in another video.

Really wish these car youtube videos would have an actual idea. This isnt the GT line, this is the GT Line S. Totally different, higher spec and much more costly.
They make some good looking cars but this is not one of them. Overuse of common automobile tropes to look expensive but is really cheap like rear chrome lip and piano black everywhere
We can at this moment only review Kia vehicles we can get over the dealer, because Kia Germany refuses to work with us because we speak English. We are always trying to find other solutions for you guys however, working on it.
Thomas you are right about the steering feel. Horrible. Gives no confidence at all at Highway Speeds. Just no. Rest of the car had a lot to admire. But the steering. Just no for me.
I had mine for a week but only did 140miles in small journeys (max 5 miles at a time) and achieved 42mpg, which translates to 6.7l/100km so I'm happy with that. Gt line S auto, 1.6l turbo hybrid.
Well done. A great shame that the design is so Baroque, far too over- detailed to be smart. After the initial surprise of the appearance it will date very quickly.
Saw it in the saloon. Awful plastics inside. Great trunk space. Interior is tight. The price is too high. 45000E for a hybrid. The dashboard is nice. Consumption is terrible for a MHEV. I would not dare buy it. Bye Kia, best of luck.

Ah, Kia, why oh why. Rightly pointed out - the "design break" is awful. The use of chrome on the outside is also an Asian-origin giveaway of sorts. Moreover, in Europe, larger SUVs sell best and Kia decides to offer a SWB version of the Sportage.... In my opinion, since it's shorter, the C-pillar section looks unfinished or finished hastily. Really disappointed with it... Sorry, hard pass from me. Kia can do so much better, just look at the amazing EV6! Now I have to look elsewhere for my new car..

2:00 they need that c pillar trim so they can offer a contrasting roof colour, it hides the blending of colours that happens at that junction.

Great review. Please review the new Skoda Karoq Sportline 190 ps tsi when available. 😊
I like it better than my golf 8 🤣 the golf dash is a disaster
Is the GT Line coming to the US for 2023? All I've been able to find are the SX Prestige & the XLine models.
Is your mic setup comparable with your recent EV- reviews? Lots of different noises and louder than on EV's.
How does this car compare to the facelifted Mazda CX-5 or the Peugeot 3008?
Forget Mazda. Drove them both. Kia is 2-3 times quieter and more comfortable...eve more responsive. Mazda has a very noisy engine.
which color is this ? Penta Metal ??
we here in slovakia says : KIA KIA SLOVA KIA :D
Is it Lunar silver colour?
Thomas will you review the new Sorento as well ?
The car has a lot of problems with the hybrid
Seriously I prefer today KIA than offset steering wheel of Mercedes-Benz and waste of money to buy Audi, BMW, etc
