The 1999 KIA Sportage, powered by a 2.0L four-cylinder engine, represented a significant step forward in the Korean automaker's journey towards establishing itself as a player in the global automotive market. As a compact SUV, the Sportage offered a blend of practicality and affordability, catering to a growing demand for vehicles that could handle both city driving and occasional off-road adventures. While it shared similarities with its predecessor, the 1999 model benefitted from improved styling, a more refined interior, and a refined powertrain. The Sportage's design showcased a boxy, utilitarian aesthetic, with a high roofline for ample headroom and generous cargo space. Despite its robust exterior, the Sportage aimed to provide a comfortable and user-friendly experience for its occupants, with features like air conditioning, power windows, and a tilt steering wheel becoming increasingly common even in this segment. In terms of performance, the Sportage's 2.0L engine delivered adequate power for everyday driving, while its 5-speed manual transmission provided a direct connection to the engine's output. The 1999 KIA Sportage's success was further amplified by the availability of a comprehensive Factory Shop Service Repair Manual (FSM).
