What do you mean the price is a bit cheaper because you live in England? All my research suggests that lots of cars cars in the US are listed for roughly $10,000 (£7,500ish) OVER what the price is in the US. The Kia Sportage in the US starts at $27,190 (£20,409) meanwhile in the UK it starts at $39, 154 (£29,390).

Lol with the USB stolen issue and potential fires from Kia . I was going to get one but now I have to look otherwise. By me all Kia dealers have a markup. Not worth the risk right now
There’s literally little risk at this point. Please educate yourself. All impacted Kia and Hyundai’s were eligible for a software update to fix the theft issue, which keep in mind was only effecting key ignition vehicles, push buttons were not part of the issue. The 2023 and on Sportage model years all have push to start. No Kia’s and Hyundai’s are catching on fire, since the recall and free engine replacement for any impacted models. Most new model years don’t even use the synonymous GDI engine anymore. Kia has some of the biggest price markups out of anyone, simply because these vehicles are high demand and people want them. Coming from a 2018 Kia Sorento owner, Kia’s are very reliable and dependable. No issues whatsoever. Kia has done a lot to repair its brand image, and there is definitely still a stigma. Kia received the lowest rate of reported problems among mass market brands in the J.D. Power 2021-2023 U.S. Vehicle Dependability Studies. It is the 3rd most reliable car brand.
BS! JD Power has no study on reliability, they have this newly labeled "dependability" / Initial Customer Satisfaction. The only good reliability survey comes annually from Consumer Reports and Kia is not in the Top 10 reliability. The Korean fanbois are stupid and/or liars.

Kia has evolved to become more than a cheap brand. It’s higher end models tailor to customers who want a more luxury feel. Keep in mind that 40% of Kia buyers have salaries over $100,000.

Pretty true, Kias are good to lease, but not buy. They are nice cheap bang for the buck cars. But don't expect or plan for them to last beyond anything like a Toyota or Honda. I'm sure there are some good ones, like there are some bad Toyotas and Hondas out there (the way of manufacturing goes), but they just aren't in the range of a Japanese car reliabilty wise.
