1. Kia Sportage - Is Kia a good brand?

Honestly, we can’t give an exact answer Yes or No to this question, as it depends much on the type of cars you want or simply the comparison of different criteria.

However, Kia surely surpasses this formidable name when it comes to production cost, then ultimately the price. Check the price of Kia Sportage in Nigeria below and you’ll understand why we say so.
