Kia continues to attract more young buyers with the 2011 Sportage

Looking at Kia’s redesigned 2011 Sportage crossover makes it apparent that the South Korean automaker aims to continue its emphasis on styling.

Sportage is Kia’s longest-running nameplate sold in the US. Its third-generation has picked up styling cues from Kia’s 2007 Kue crossover concept, which was developed at Kia’s design center near Los Angeles. Set to arrive in showrooms in August, the Sportage will be the fourth new or redesigned model sent to dealerships in the last 18 months that was created in California. The first three are the following: the Kia Soul subcompact, Sorento crossover, Forte and Forte Koup.

Who did they copy for the Sportage?

Seriously get over this crap. Kia is definitely putting out its own unique take on popular styling cues, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Not everyone can accept the KIA-Hyundai invasion of the world. Accept it and it's here to stay for a long time. They're making moves without making too much noise about it and slowly they are capturing the market.

So true. This whining little huu-freak sounds desperate to discredit anything that actually looks good and is exciting, since the company he's down on his knees before CANNOT and has NO clue how to do the same.

I suppose you only buy local produce, make your own cloths, and live an a grass hut too right?

Lets just add to your post a little: "Yup, Japan, China, and Korea are feeding off of the west's greed for cheap goods to live beyond their means (why buy 1 television when you can have 5?), regardless of how it destroys their economy.

Ignorance is such a powerful weapon."
