Additional Notes

The luggage compartment bulb specifications for the Kia Sportage span model years 1995 through 2023, with five distinct bulb sizes appearing across that period: DE3425, DE3175, DE3423, DE3022, and 6461.
The DE3423 is the most frequently specified bulb across the listed model years, appearing in the 1995-1996, 1997, 2007-2018 (excluding 2017-2018 where 6461 applies), and covering the largest share of entries overall. It is a festoon-type bulb with a 41mm length, end-cap contacts, and a 12V rating conforming to ANSI standards for the US and Canada.
The 6461 bulb differs from the other festoon types in the specifications by using an SV8.5 base rather than end-cap contacts. It carries an explicit 5W power rating and a 36mm length, operating at 12V. Its SV8.5 base makes it physically and electrically distinct from the end-cap festoon bulbs also listed.
The 2020 Kia Sportage specifies the 6461 bulb specifically for vehicles equipped with Halogen Capsule Headlamps, indicating that headlamp configuration is a relevant fitment variable for that model year.
The DE3425 and DE3423 share the same 41mm length and end-cap contact design, both operating at 12V under ANSI standards. Despite these similarities, they carry separate part designations, and substituting one for the other without confirming full specification equivalence is not supported by the data provided.
The DE3175 and DE3022 are both 31mm festoon bulbs with end-cap contacts rated at 12V. They share physical and electrical characteristics but hold distinct ANSI designations, and the specifications assign them to different model years without indicating cross-compatibility.
The DE3022 is specified for model years 1999-2002 and 2005-2006, while the DE3175 appears only for the 2019 model year. Both occupy the 31mm festoon format within the Sportage luggage compartment bulb history.
All five bulb types listed in the specifications are festoon-style bulbs operating on a 12V circuit, conforming to ANSI standards applicable in the US and Canada. Their differences lie in physical length and base type, which determine fitment compatibility within the lamp housing.
