Kelley Blue Book's KBB.com has released their annual list of 'Best Back to School Cars' for 2013, and we here at Kia of Waldorf are very pleased to announce that the 2013 Kia Sportage was one of the models named to the list.
KBB develops this list every year as a guide to aid college students and parents in their car search. This special 'Back to School' designation is given to models that fit into both the lifestyle, and the budget of the average student. Kelley Blue Book editors examine various models in terms of their style, safety features, value, fuel economy, and technology offerings.
The Sportage ended up scoring incredibly well due to its balanced offering of exterior and interior design, technology like the KIA UVO voice-activated infotainment system, as well as good efficiency and safety ratings.
"Kelley Blue Book's recognition of the Sportage as one of the 10 Best Back-to-School cars validates Kia's competitive presence within the ever-growing compact CUV segment," said Michael Sprague, the Executive Vice President of Marketing & Communications for Kia Motors America. "And given KMA's commitment to education, through partnerships with organizations such as the B.R.A.K.E.S. Teen Pro-Active Driving School and DonorsChoose.org, an online charity that makes it easy for 'citizen philanthropists' to support public school students and teachers - having Sportage named as a back-to-school favorite is an even greater honor."1
