Kia Sportage depreciation is one of the key factors that make the 2012 model a smart buy. Newly released cars typically lose 15–20% of their value in the first year, and the Sportage follows this trend closely. Over the next four years, it usually drops an additional 30–35% of its original retail price, which means a 2012 Kia Sportage can retain around 45–50% of its initial value after five years of ownership. This steady but moderate depreciation rate is ideal for drivers who want a mid‑priced SUV that won’t break the bank during a resale.
When evaluating the Kia Sportage 2012 price, it helps to compare it with comparable vehicles in the same segment:
- Hyundai Tucson (2012): Roughly 2–3% pricier, similar powertrain, but often comes with a slightly larger cargo area.
- Ford Escape (2012): Usually 10–15% more expensive, with a distinct design language and a more aggressive fuel economy rating.
- Nissan Rogue (2012): Comparable price point, yet features a dual‑saddle seat design that boosts rear passenger comfort.
In a comparative snapshot, the 2012 Kia Sportage sits comfortably in the middle price bracket, offering a well‑balanced mix of cabin refinement, power, and safety features that is often seen as a value proposition in the compact SUV segment. Despite the arrival of newer models,
