If you want to take trips to Natural Bridge Caverns or Guadalupe River State Park, make sure you’re fully equipped with the available 2,500-lb. maximum towing capacity2

Interior

Within the 2023 Kia Sportage, you will discover the adjustable tilt and telescopic steering column. This will allow more for a customized driving experience, no matter what your height is. If you’re traveling with your friends, no more fighting over cupholders after coffee runs. The rear seats each have armrests with cup holders they can utilize. Manual control air conditioning with rear vents will enable for a cool or warm driving experience, and little to no disagreements. Sit comfortably atop the woven cloth seats or opt for luxury with the available SynTex seating. Finally, the 6-way manual adjustable driver seat will come in handy when you’re stuck being the designated driver back from family parties on holidays. 

Technology

Last but not least, the technology features this vehicle contains will entertain and facilitate the driving process. The steering wheel-mounted controls will allow you to change songs and answer phone calls on the road without looking away from the road. Keeping you updated of your vehicle’s fuel tank capacity and your speed, the 12.2-inch instrument display keeps all of your specs in one place for easy access. For entertainment purposes, utilize the standard 8-inch touchscreen display to change between AM/FM/HD radio.

What can I say...exceptional customer service at World Car KIA off of I35 South! The young gentleman named Andre who helped us went above and beyond from the time we walked in the door until she drove off the lot in her new KIA Soul! When my fiance and I are ready to purchase a new vehicle we will definitely be back to see Andre. He made the experience of buying a new car a very easy and enjoyable one. Thank you again to Andre and World Car KIA! You guys were the BEST!

My husband and I had talked about getting a new car for a while now. We wanted a new car to replace our current car that had definitely seen some better days. We put directions in our GPS and drove to the closest Hyundai dealer, which lead us here. We had the pleasure of meeting Dylan, who went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. We had a couple of bumps in the road of our own accidental making, but he was patient with us. We went through multiple options and every time, Dylan made sure we knew all of the ins and outs about each vehicle. Thanks to Dylan, we are the proud owners of a 2018 Hyundai Elantra GT. Thank you so much for making our first time car buying experience a breeze, Dylan!

Just had to leave a review. Joshua Ytuarte is great at what he does. I usually get extremely annoyed with sales people, but I felt confident that he wasn't BS-ing me, and beyond that, that he was genuinely being helpful. Found just the car I was looking for. So excited. If you read this, ask for Joshua!

When I was treated unfairly at another dealership I stopped here on my way home and was met by a very nice salesman named Jose. It was close to closing but Jose took the time to hear my story about my experience before arriving here and sat me down to ask how he could help. We set up an appointment for the following day in which Jose got me into a vehicle I wanted and the payments I needed. The process was very easy and prompt.
