Has the hunt for your next daily driver led you to the compact SUV class? Well, if so, please allow your friends at Kia of Fargo to throw you a bone:

Ours -- the recently remade 2017 Kia Sportage -- is one that should absolutely hold a spot on your short list.

And, evidently, Autotrader commentator Jabari Jones agrees. Hear his take on the Sportage in the clip below:

Arguably one of the most alluring offerings across the Sportage range, the mid-level EX definitely doesn't skimp on the good stuff.

Standard equipment on this trim includes 18-inch wheels, foglights, heated mirrors…

When it comes to the spanking-new 2017 Cadenza, we here at Kia of Fargo have half a mind to pronounce this big-bodied sedan one of the industry's best!

However, in the interest of egalitarianism, we encourage you to form your own opinion on the matter.

Get the inside scoop from Kelley Blue Book Managing Video Editor Micah Muzio; his critique of the Cadenza is as follows:

The top-of-the-line Limited trim delivers a dapper, button-downed vibe.

Standard amenities on this iteration include 19-inch wheels, LED head- and foglamps, heated and ventilated front seats, wireless phone charging ...

Kia vehicles such as Nappa leather seats with quilted inserts, 19-inch dark satin alloy wheels, a 12 speaker Harman Kardon audio system and Clari-Fi technology, a navigation system with eight-inch touch schreen, HUD that displays speed and navigation information, and many other technology and safety features.

Many of these features were put to the luxury test when pitted against the luxury vehicle expertise of valets. The Cadenza stopped the valets in their tracks when they sat in the vehicle blind folded, and when they found out they were in a vehicle they were forced to rethink luxury.

No doubt one of the more intriguing rides across the roster, we here at Kia of Fargo have nothing but love for the 2017 Soul.

And why's that?

Please allow Cars.com pundit Bill Jackson to explain. His appraisal of the Soul is as follows:

There are three unique engine options within the Soul catalog. The first, a 1.6-liter four-cylinder, is rated at a respectable 130 horsepower and 118 pound-feet of torque.

The mid-level Plus model, meanwhile, receives a 2.0-liter four-cylinder. Here, output grows to 161 horsepower and 150 pound-feet of torque.

And, last but not least…

Should you find yourself seeking a midsize sedan for your next daily driver, we here at Kia of Fargo would be quick to match you up with ours, the 2017 Optima.

Wondering why we would?

Well, if so, click "play" on the clip below. Here now to highlight some of the Optima's most salient qualities are the motorway mavens over at AutoGuide.com:

The Optima's entry-level trim -- the LX -- delivers a straight-up staggering degree of standard appointment.

Such amenities include 16-inch alloy wheels, a six-way power driver seat (with power lumbar), a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, a 60/40-…

If we here at Kia of Fargo had the time -- and requisite digital real estate -- we'd discuss the appeal of our beloved South Korean brand's full-size sedan, the spanking-new 2017 Cadenza, for days on end. It's just that impressive.

However, since such an approach isn't necessarily the most sensible one, we prefer to link the following clip, instead.

Check it out to receive the inside scoop from Kelley Blue Book Managing Video Editor Micah Muzio:

Want to fly first-class with the Cadenza? Then, look no further than its range-topping model, the luxury-loaded Limited.

Has your search for a new vehicle led you to the compact crossover class? Well, if so, please allow your chums at Kia of Fargo to throw you a bone:

Of the Sportage's three available trims, we believe the mid-level EX is the one that provides the biggest bang for your buck.

Standard features on this…

There are a lot of incredible reveals and debuts going on right now at the 2016 Paris Motor Show and, with only a couple days left before the show is over, we knew we had to show you something that caught our eye: the 2018 Kia Rio! This small car has a new look to the front and rear fascias, a longer wheelbase for more interior space and comfort, features like pedestrian detection and automatic braking, and much more, you can expect that it will be the best version of the Rio ever. See it in action below:

At Kia of Fargo, we're beginning to enter our favorite time of the year as new models continue to grace our Fargo, ND showroom. That said, early 2017 is looking to be more exciting than we expected thanks to the reveal of Kia's newest vehicle: the Kia Niro. The Niro is proudly the world's first hybrid-only crossover utility vehicle, combining the utility of a crossover with the impressive EPA-estimated 50 combined MPG. Check out the video below to take a look for yourself:

Whenever we get news about the Kia Soul, it's always good. And usually, it's always heralded by our favorite dancing hamsters. This past week, the Korean automaker put out a new--and quite long--spot about the new Soul. In it, we see our favorite fuzzy rodents take on a rather epic take on Dueling Banjos, and learned a turbo Soul is coming.
