Note 10: The correct U.S. SL third-generation Kia Sportage Sport Utility lifecycle is MY2011–2016. Use the independent AMS twelve-SUV comparison: seventh column Kia Sportage 2.0 CRDi 4WD Vision, build 08/2010–01/2014, test August 2013, Lenkraddurchmesser 370 mm, source grade 8. The test calendar date does not establish an exact source model year. Preserve this actual diesel Vision source configuration separately from the supported U.S. Base/LX/EX/SX same-body application. No affirmative SL wheel change or competing SL physical measurement was established; carry this anchor through the full verified MY2011–2016 SL phase. Exterior facelift language is not a wheel event, and the failed official 2014 page retrieval proves neither presence nor absence of one. Replace the false QL/SL labels and old wrong-generation source applications, including both old numeric bindings on MY2016. Their 370 mm grade 8 physical QL claims remain valid for their actual MY2017–2022 QL consumers; those consumers are preservation checks, not additional corrections. Preserve the exact MY2016 owner ROUND scope; do not generalize it to every option/year or infer ordinary geometry from diameter. Return to measurement

Data sources and methodology
SteeringWheelSize.com compiles steering wheel size data from model-year references, manufacturer materials, parts listings, and marketplace sources. The table on this page presents the measurements as diameter x grip circumference.
Trim rows and size classifications are shown when that information is available for the Kia Sportage. Always verify fitment on the wheel before driving with an installed cover.
