2024 Kia Sportage Hybrid

The Sportage hybrid's electric drive and turbo four-cylinder, which together yield 227 hp, make it quicker and quieter than the conventional version, transforming the driving experience. We measured an impressive 36 mpg overall. Power delivery is smooth and prompt. The plug-in hybrid's electric-only range is 34 miles. The Sportage has responsive handling and a firm yet absorbent ride. Most controls are easy to use, though the touch-capacitive panel for climate and media systems is annoying. The front seats are comfortable, and rear-seat headroom and legroom are generous. Each Sportage comes with FCW, AEB with pedestrian and cyclist detection, LKA, LDW, LCA, automatic high beams, rear occupant reminder, and rear parking obstruction warning. Options include BSW, RCTW with rear automatic braking and collision avoidance, and ACC.

About Kia

For almost any modern vehicle category, there’s a Kia that’s worth considering buying. Among small and midsized SUVs, models like the Sportage and Sorento rank near the top in their respective classes for their nice interiors, ride comfort, and appropriately powerful engines. SUVs like the Telluride have ride comfort, interior space, and overall value that earn it regular placement near the top of Consumer Reports’ ratings. Fuel economy across the brand is generally good, but hybrid and plug-in hybrid options are available for even more miles per gallon. Plug-in hybrid options have useful all-electric driving range. Kia EVs are generally competent, ranging from compact sedans up to a three-row SUV. Kia’s reliability scores have been improving, but other brands score higher in our rankings. Specific Kia models have earned our recommendation among used cars.
