There are many cars on the secondary market, but not all of their versions are trouble-free. One has a motor, the other has a gearbox. But there are optimal versions, which are told by the expert of Za Rulem, the oldest and most authoritative automobile publication in Russia, Sergey Zinoviev.
This time he pointed to the optimal version of the popular crossover kia Sportage 2016-2021 of release, which can be purchased at a price of 1,441,000 to 2,318,000 rubles.
This is a crossover with a two-litre petrol engine, automatic or manual gearbox and no four-wheel drive. Such versions are more economical than others and will not burden the new owner with investments in repairs and maintenance.
The G4NA 2.0 naturally aspirated engine (150 hp) is capable of driving 300 thousand kilometers, but of course with good maintenance: no sudden acceleration when the engine is cold, premature oil change and the like. It is better to prefer the 2017 version or younger – then additional oil nozzles were added to the engine, eliminating the risk of scratches on the cylinder walls.
If necessary, this engine can be re-shrouded, although no such operation is provided by the manufacturer. The only weak point is the water pump.
Six-speed mechanics M6CF4 and automatic A6MF1 / A6MF2 are trouble-free from the word “absolute”. Therefore, more attention should be paid to the safety of the body, and not to them.
