The 2026 Kia Sportage Hybrid has arrived with more power, updated tech, and a refreshed design while keeping its place as one of the top compact crossovers.
The hybrid system pairs a 1.6-liter turbo four with a 64-hp electric motor, delivering 232 hp and 271 lb-ft of torque — 5 hp more than before. Fuel economy remains excellent at 42 mpg combined with FWD and 35 mpg with AWD, far ahead of the gas-only versions.
Inside, the Sportage Hybrid offers two 12.3-inch screens, smart infotainment controls, and exceptional space. Rear passengers enjoy 41.3 inches of legroom, while cargo volume stretches to 74.1 cubic feet with seats folded and the floor lowered.
Pricing starts at $31,735 for the LX trim with FWD, while the top SX Prestige at $41,835 adds heated and ventilated seats, a surround-view camera, remote parking, and more. With its mix of efficiency, comfort, and technology, the 2026 Sportage Hybrid continues to be a smart choice in the competitive compact SUV market.
