2025 Kia Sportage

Power Meets Efficiency in the Kia Sportage Hybrid

The Kia Sportage Hybrid features a turbocharged 1.6L hybrid powertrain, delivering a solid 227 horsepower and 258 lb.-ft. of torque. With an EPA-estimated 44 MPG HWY, you’ll get performance and efficiency all in one complete package.

Classified as a compact SUV, the Sportage offers available all-wheel drive with 8.3 inches of ground clearance. This will give drivers stellar handling in multiple driving conditions whilst still maintaining a smooth, comfortable experience no matter where you go.

Infotainment and Connectivity

One thing that stands out on this year’s Kia Sportage is the available 12.3-inch dual panoramic displays and the Harman Kardon Premium audio system (available on the SX Prestige trim). The displays provide 24 inches of display space for entertainment and convenience. And if you aren’t looking to upgrade, the LX base trim packs a handy, 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for easy connection for all of your devices.

With other available features like Kia Connect, SiriusXM radio, Amazon Alexa, and Remote Start, the Sportage provides plenty of tech to keep you and the family connected. The vehicle also features a wireless phone charger and multiple USB charging ports to keep devices charged on the go.

Interior Space and Comfort

Inside the cabin, the Sportage feels modern and stylish with interior lighting, woven cloth seat trims, Privacy Glass, and a Sound Absorbing Windshield. A heated steering wheel and SynTex Seat Trims (available on higher trims) add additional luxury and comfort. Dual-Zone Auto Climate Control comes standard on all models, while higher trims can add ventilated front seats and a stunning, panoramic sunroof.

Another great feature of the Sportage is its impressive amount of cargo space with a class-leading 41.3 inches of legroom and 39.5 cubic feet of rear cargo space. The space also expands to 73.7 cubic feet with the rear seats folded down.

Exterior Style and ConvenienceĀ 

Bold, LED projector headlights and matte gray 17-inch Aero Alloy wheels decorate the LX base trim, with an option to upgrade to 18-inch alloy wheels with a machined finish. Roof Rails, a Shark Fin Antenna, and Auto Headlight Control also come standard on all trims.

Kia takes high-end features, practicality, and efficiency to the next level with the new Sportage Hybrid. And if you’re ready to experience the future of Hybrid driving, we’d love to help. Contact us at DARCARS Kia of Frederick, MD and schedule a test drive today.
