Kia sportage awd

[Timothy_de2b81]

Hello im new and this is all I have, yes a crossover, kia sportage 2012, all season tyres, all weather mats, traction control and centre diff lock. I've done a little bit of gravel track off road and it tackles the gradients great with the hill descent activated. I have done research on this crossover and not properly sure what its fully capable off and im sure a 4x4 instructor would laugh at me. Any thoughts?

From the little I have taken my wife's 26 Sportage off road I do think the drive system is adequate for light trails. Big difference between the 2012 and the new ones though, so I can only talk about the newer ones.
By light trails I mean fire trail type driving, the clearance is no good for anything much more than that.
Big thing to remember is that it is all wheel drive and not four wheel drive, so getting unstuck is more of a challenge.
