DOUBLE WIN FOR SPORTAGE AT CAR DEALER USED CAR AWARDS 2018

Kia Motors UK Limited’s best-selling model, the Sportage, has picked up two further awards at the Car Dealer Magazine’s Used Car Awards. The awards focus on those in the market who provide the best peace of mind to customers.

John Hargreaves, Head of Fleet and Remarketing said: “Sportage has won numerous new car awards but to also pick up two awards for the used car market highlights the cars’ longevity and underpins the confidence that our Dealers and customers have in the Sportage and the Kia brand”.

Wheeler Dealer Presenter, Mike Brewer said at the awards 'There’s big money in these big cars, if you can buy them at the right price and find the right buyer. Here in the UK we just can’t get enough of them and a lot of that comes down to the prestige of ownership. The Kia Sportage has been a huge success for the dealers who sell them both in the new market and used. It impressed our judges with its great quality and it flies off forecourts.’

Celebrating 25 years in the UK the Sportage has remained Kia’s best-selling model for six years in a row, with over 240,000 sold in the UK since its launch in 1993 and five million produced globally. The Sportage has recently been updated with fresh exterior and interior design, adding new safety and infotainment technologies, as well as efficient new powertrains and cutting-edge EcoDynamics+ 48-volt mild hybrid technology.

Commenting on the award, Rebecca Chaplin, Head of Editorial, Blackball Media; 'Congratulations to Kia, they should be extremely proud to pick up not just the Used SUV of the Year for the Kia Sportage, but also the top Used Car of the Year award!

‘When we speak to Kia’s dealers, they always tell us how much they love the Sportage. It’s still desirable in the used market and the great warranty keeps customers happy long after they’ve purchased one.’
