The Kia Sportage Needle Bearing minimizes internal friction to allow power to reach the wheels without any disruption and gear changes to be sharp to ensure a confident feel in each and every commute. The Needle Bearing is constructed using slim rollers that ride between the sturdy inner and outer races, which are essential in ensuring that the gearbox is not bulky and thus remains light and responsive, like the compact Kia gearbox. Since the rollers have a larger surface area of contact than ball designs, it spreads heat, which helps to keep transmission fluid and component life longer. Early Sportage editions employed the open roller designs whereas newer models have the caged Needle Bearing design, and both designs fit perfectly into the various model years, starting with the first adventurous SUV up to the new city-friendly crossover. Regardless of the generation, the Needle Bearing is perfectly matched to factory tolerances and is immediately compatible without having to guess at the generic parts. It reduces drag to allow the Sportage to attain better fuel economy, supports the Kia tradition of value, and reduces vibration along the output shaft to maintain cabin silence and protect the vehicle with the highly rated safety systems. The small size of the Needle Bearing also allows stronger gears and thicker casings, a design that supports the already established reputation of reliability of all Kia drivetrains. A frequent check of noise or looseness allows owners to change a worn Needle Bearing before overheating of gears or seals is a problem, and road trip plans, as well as family schedules, can be saved. Customers of loyal Sportage value that with proven strength, smart packaging, and precise installation to the rest of the popular Sportage brand, this little but important part carries the bigger image that Kia has of reliability and performance.
