Kia Sportage prices in the UK

The average used Kia Sportage listed for £16,957 in the UK as of July 2026 (median £16,242), based on 16,983 ScanAuctions price observations. The value sweet spot is a 2015 car at around £5,518 — 29.1% less than a 2016.

The Sportage in the used market

The Sportage sells on Kia's seven-year warranty, and the used market prices it in: cars still inside the warranty window hold value noticeably better than equivalent-age rivals. Fourth-generation cars (2016–2021) are the volume play; the 2022-on model jumped in both style and price. Diesel automatics dominate the higher-mileage end — the petrol manuals are the simpler used buy.
