2024 Kia Sportage near Rio Rancho, NM: Standard and Available Features

With the base Sportage LX, drivers get a combination of essential and several convenience features, including remote keyless entry, automatic LED headlights, cloth upholstery, a USB type-C charging port, manual AC, a dual-level cargo floor, and a 60/40-split rear seat. Heated front seats and heated exterior mirrors are optional. Stepping up to the EX trim brings all the amenities of the LX, plus remote start, proximity keyless entry, push-button ignition, two USB-C charging ports for the second row, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a wireless charging pad, synthetic leather seating, dual-zone auto climate control, a power adjustable driver’s seat, and optional roof rails. 

The mid-range X-Line is even more eye-catching with trim-specific synthetic leather upholstery and high-utility roof rails.

Expanding upon the EX trim, the SX comes standard with the optional X-Line features, plus position memory for the driver’s seat, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, and a leather-wrapped shifter. At the next level, the SX Prestige has standard ventilated front seats with power-adjustable front driver and front passenger seats, LED fog lights, a heated steering wheel, and superior synthetic leather upholstery. A top-tier trim, the X-Pro skips on the power front passenger seat and ventilated front seats and instead comes standard with a heated windshield, exclusive X-Line upholstery, high-utility roof rails, stainless steel pedals, and knobby, all-terrain tires. Choosing the X-Pro Prestige brings back the omitted amenities of the previous trims.
