What's New on the 2022 Kia Sportage?

The Kia Sportage has some minor changes to the vehicle from the previous model year. It now features the formerly optional Nightfall Edition, which was a special package, as a vehicle that totally replaces the S trim level. There's also a new package on the 2022 Kia Sportage LX called the Value Edition, which includes quality features often reserved for higher trims such as 18-inch wheels, heated front seats, keyless entry and push button start. The new Sportage EX also now offers a panoramic sunroof, plus there's now 10 years of complimentary map updates on the navigation system for the EX and SX Turbo editions.
