2011 Kia Sportage SX Turbo



The 2011 Sportage SX Turbo with a 256-horsepower, turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with 264 pound-feet of torque. That makes the Sportage the automaker's all-new direct-injection engine bolted to a six-speed automatic transmission, which should help the Sportage SX get 27 miles per gallon on the highway in front-wheel-drive guise. The automaker says that the figure gives its CUV better fuel economy than any of its competitors.  The Sportage SX Turbo will use a firmer suspension compared to its naturally aspirated kin, and a host of aesthetic changes will set the vehicle apart from the rest of the Sportage line. Look for special 18-inch wheels, dual exhaust and a different grille to adorn the new turbo model. Prices start at $25,795 for the front-wheel drive version. Opting for all-wheel drive will set you back an additional $1,500.
