The interior of the new 2017 Kia Sportage has been revealed.

Ahead of its official debut at the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show in less than two weeks, Kia has released more information on the fourth-generation crossover with the new interior sporting better materials and a focus on practicality. A wide range of technologies aim to improve comfort, convenience, connectivity and safety on the Sportage.

According to the Korean automaker, the all-new interior is one of the most significant improvements made over the previous-generation Sportage. The design team focused on creating a cabin with a wide, driver-oriented dash but with a simple, modern design. By blending metalwork with soft materials, the interior features clearly defined horizontal lines. The Sportage also gets a more upscale looking steering wheel and a cleaner infotainment setup.

Greater soundproofing has been added to the 2017 Kia Sportage to help make the cabin quieter. Customers will also be able to opt for a two-tone interior finish in either Dark and Light Grey or Black and Canyon Beige for the cabin. Regardless of the interior colors chosen, however, the console will always be finished in black.

Check back on September 15 when the 2017 Kia Sportage makes its official debut for more information on the next-generation crossover.
