Kia Sportage weight

Kia Sportage curb weight affects the fuel efficiency, handling, and overall driving experience. A heavier Sportage may have a more stable ride and handle better in adverse weather conditions, but it may also require more fuel and have slower acceleration.

On the other hand, a lighter Kia Sportage may boast of better MPG and quicker acceleration, though it may also have reduced stability and less control on the road.

The lightest Kia Sportage was produced in 2002 with a weight of 3102 lbs. And the heaviest model came off the production line in 2017 with 3997 lbs pounds in curb weight.

Explore the data below and compare how other Kia Sportage body mass parameters like gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) and payload capacity changed between the generations.
