2022 Kia Sportage vs. 2021 Toyota RAV4: The Sportage Offers More Value and Performance

2022 Kia Sportage vs. 2021 Toyota RAV4

The Sportage offers outstanding value in the segment with loads of equipment, top performance numbers, great driving dynamics and more. It also offers a warranty that surpasses what its rivals offer and a price that is literally a game changer in the segment.

There are many competitors in this Kia's segment. Here, we compare it to the 2021 Toyota RAV4.

The 2022 Kia Sportage provides better equipment and more power

Inside, the Kia Sportage deploys an upscale environment that surpasses what you will find in any RAV4 model. For example, the base Kia Sportage model comes with a large 8-inch infotainment touchscreen loaded with the latest UVO system that gives you access to a myriad of applications and functions. The RAV4’s base model only offers a smaller, 7-inch screen with a much less intuitive infotainment system.

The 2022 Kia Sportage takes the lead in terms of top performance compared to the RAV4’s gas lineup. The Sportage SX boasts a 2.0 Turbo GDI four-cylinder engine that produces 237 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque – which is much more than the RAV4’s gas engine.

The Kia Sportage is offered with the available Dynamax all-wheel drive (AWD), which is a much more evolved system than the one you will find in the RAV4, helping you conquer the worst conditions in the winter, but also providing more fun at the wheel for your summer trips, in the city or on curvy country roads.

The 2022 Kia Sportage is more affordable, and has a better warranty

Every new Sportage has a warranty package that not only adds value, but places the vehicle in a unique place in the warranty world that is practically out of reach for the RAV4. Kia provides each model with a 5-year/100,000 km comprehensive warranty covering the vehicle. The RAV4's competing warranty reduces basic coverage to 3 years/60,000 km. Needless to say, with Kia, you don't have to worry.

The 2022 Kia Sportage is also much more affordable than the Toyota RAV4. With a starting price of $27,729 for well-equipped base Sportage model compared to $30,949 for a base Toyota RAV4.

The 2021 Kia Sportage offers a value-packed package that should be on your shopping list. You can shop for your car online with us. Our representatives are waiting for your call and can answer all your questions.
