Browns of Richmond are delighted to offer this exceedingly handsome latest generation Kia Sportage PHEV for sale. With it being the GT-Line spec its hugely desirable and sure to be high on any used car buyers shopping list. Finished in Blue Flame and complimented by a beautiful set of 19-inch diamond cut unmarked alloy wheels, we think its one of the best-looking versions of the Sportage to date. A nice low mileage means the car is in great condition, so were not expecting it to hang about, surely the first person to see it will buy it. Like its predecessor, this generation of Sportage is a massive leap forwards in terms of quality, equipment and appearance. Premium high-quality materials make the inside a really nice place to be, function and form with modern amenities make for a timeless design. Kia have certainly outdone themselves as they continue to dominate in a hugely competitive market sector. Mating two powertrains into one to provide a super simple means of benefiting from what each has to offer is pure genius. Maximise fuel efficiency by driving on pure electric for shorter journeys and take advantage of the easy of refuelling a petrol engine for longer journeys. The fact of the matter is, for the vast majority of people in the UK the daily commute is around 30 miles, in which case a driver could save a fortune in petrol by using only the EV option! The petrol engine is 1.6, capable of decent fuel economy on its own, mated to an automatic transmission. In addition, the car is fitted with a 13.8-kWh battery capable of powering the whole car for around 25 to 320 miles. With clever and innovative technology, the two between them can deliver some mind-boggling economy stats, not only that but combined they generate 261 bhp! One of the biggest differences between a Full Hybrid such as a Toyota Rav4 and a Plug in Hybrid like this Sportage PHEV is control over the battery, in a plug in hybrid the driver has the ability to drive the car on pure electric for longer periods of time and at higher speeds. Essentially if you have a short commute this car can be driven in the same way you would a normally aspirated car but only via the battery, making it incredibly fuel efficient. Unlike a full Battery electric vehicle, the PHEV driver doesnt need to worry about longer journeys and having to plan stops, it can completely rely on its petrol engine full time if required. You get all the benefits of EV driving (over short ranges) and none of the disadvantages, this truly is a great way to begin a journey into alternative fuelled cars. At Browns we love a car thats been well maintained and that was precisely the reason we selected this one for sale. Weve got all records of the service history, meaning the remainder of the 7-year warranty is intact. Always serviced on time, plus we just carried out an RAC inspection to ensure the car has a complete and clean bill of health. Its plain to see this car has had some of the very best care and attention and we think that speaks volumes about the kind of person that perhaps owned this car previously.
