The 2013 Kia Sportage with a 2.0 L 4-cylinder engine requires 5W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil, while the 2.4 L 4-cylinder engine needs 5W-20 Synthetic Oil. Both engines have a capacity of 4.9 quarts with a filter change. To maintain performance, it is recommended to change the oil and filter every 3,000 to 5,000 miles. The price of oil can vary from $6 to $11 per quart, depending on the brand and location. Taking the car to a mechanic for an oil change typically costs between $40 and $50.
