The Kia Sportage already grabs attention with its modern and bold design. With expressive lines and balanced proportions, the Korean SUV attracts looks wherever it goes.
H&R Sport Suspension: The Perfect Combination
For those seeking an even more striking look and superior handling, H&R, a specialist in suspension components, offers the ideal solution: sport lowering springs. This upgrade elevates the Sportage to a new level of style and performance.
The H&R springs lower the vehicle’s center of gravity by approximately 25 mm. This subtle change in height makes a significant difference, giving the Sportage a more aggressive and elegant stance. Besides aesthetics, handling is notably improved.
Enhanced Handling and Safety
With a lower center of gravity, the Kia Sportage equipped with H&R suspension responds more precisely to steering commands. In corners and sudden direction changes, the body remains more stable, reducing roll and providing greater safety and confidence to the driver.
Comfort on long trips is not compromised, and the vehicle’s original load capacity is preserved. In other words, the H&R upgrade delivers sportiness without sacrificing the practicality and versatility you expect from an SUV.
Technical Details
The H&R lowering springs are specifically designed for the Kia Sportage models (type NQ5e) manufactured from 04/2020, including models with a 1.6 CRDI (diesel) and 1.6 T-GDI (gasoline) engine, both with or without a 48V mild hybrid system and 2WD or 4WD traction.
The lowering is approximately 25 mm for both the front and rear axles. The suggested price for the set of springs is €359 (reference value as of March 2025).
Trak+ Wheel Spacers: Extra Customization
For a final touch of personalization, H&R offers the “Trak+” wheel spacers. Available in high-strength aluminum and in silver or black anodized colors, they allow you to align the original or replacement wheels of the Kia Sportage millimeter-perfectly to the edges of the wheel arches.
The width of the spacers varies starting from 30 mm per axle, with prices starting from €174 (reference value as of March 2025). This accessory complements the sporty look and further improves the vehicle’s stability.
Reversibility and Guaranteed Quality
An important point for vehicle leasing owners: the H&R suspension upgrades can be reversed without leaving a trace. If the leasing company requires the vehicle to be returned in its original configuration, removing the H&R components is simple and quick.
All H&R components have quality certifications and are produced in Germany, ensuring the durability and safety you expect for your Kia Sportage.
