“Taking inspiration from an ethos we created where nature meets technology, the all-new Sportage challenges the norm with an adventurous and contemporary exterior and a carefully conceived, beautifully detailed interior,” said Karim Habib, Senior Vice President and Head of Global Design Center. “With the all-new Sportage, we were fully focused on challenging ourselves and pushing our fifth-generation SUV to a new level.”

At the front there’s a large black grille that spans the entire width of the Sportage’s face, which is flanked by thin vertical daytime running lights. Kia also calls out the Sportage’s “taught character lines” and a “strong yet refined silhouette.”
