How much does the 2020 Kia Sportage facelift cost in the U.S.?

When Kia launched the refreshed Sportage crossover vehicle a couple of months ago, there was a lot of interest generated in the updated design.

But for many, the excitement only really gets to fever pitch once they know how much it’s going to cost to get behind the wheel.

We can now reveal the 2020 Kia Sportage price by trim level, so let’s take a look at the breakdown.
