The Kia Sportage compact SUV rolls into the 2027 model year with few changes, but the good news is that the automaker held pricing relatively flat. All trims see a modest $200 price increase for 2027, and there was no change to the $1,495 destination charge.

All-wheel drive (AWD) is an $1,800 upcharge for models equipped with front-wheel drive (FWD). Kia Sportage Hybrid and Plug-in Hybrid models saw a $100 base price increase for 2027.
The only changes for 2027 come to the X-Line trim, which gains a standard panoramic sunroof and a power liftgate. Kia also offers a new Road Rider Brown exterior color with an available two-tone roof paint scheme.
Standard features include a 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine making 187 horsepower and 178 lb-ft of torque. It’s paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission and either front- or all-wheel drive. Models equipped with all-wheel drive add driving modes for snow, sand/mud, and other terrain.
A 12.3-inch touchscreen and 12.3-inch gauge cluster with a 4.2-inch display screen come standard. Stepping up to the SX trim brings a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster and a Harman Kardon sound system. All Sportage models come with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
The 2027 Kia Sportage hasn’t been crash-tested yet, but it should see similar scores to the 2026 model, which earned a Top Safety Pick+ designation from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the highest available. It offers generous driver-assistance features, including adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assist, front and rear parking sensors, and more.
