2-Line Blurb

140-Character Blurb

The 2026 Kia Sportage Hybrid compact SUV brilliantly blends style, technology, and high fuel efficiency.

Cons

<ul>
<li>Audio/HVAC control learning curve</li>
</ul>

Power, Ride, and Handling

Driving Impressions

If higher fuel efficiency isn’t reason enough to choose the Kia Sportage Hybrid over the standard gas model, perhaps more power will move the needle. And for 2026, the Sportage Hybrid improves there, too. The gas-electric hybrid powertrain with its 1.6-liter turbo 4-cylinder engine sees a power bump to 232 horsepower, five more ponies than the prior year. Compare that to the 187 hp in the gas-only model, and you can see how hybrids make so much sense.
In our testing of this powertrain over the years, we’ve found its smoothness just a step behind its Toyota and Honda rivals, but pleasant and eager enough all the same. And one aspect we like about this Kia hybrid SUV not found on those rivals is its use of a transmission with traditional gears — six, in this case — instead of a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) that can tend to drone, especially in hybrid applications.
<h3>Fuel economy</h3>
If gas stations are your kryptonite, the base Sportage Hybrid LX is actually the one that will keep you away from them the most. It’s the star of the efficiency show here with an EPA-estimated 42 mpg in combined city/highway driving. The other trims get 35 mpg. The difference is because the LX is front-wheel drive, while the others have all-wheel drive standard.

Upmarket Design

Exterior

The Kia Sportage Hybrid was already arguably the most sophisticated-looking mainstream compact SUV, and even that aspect has been upgraded for 2026. Kia’s “opposites united” design language has tweaked the LED “star map” lighting and the Sportage’s can’t-miss amber daytime running lights. We think the whole thing is one striking and cohesive design. And what’s more, it doesn’t crimp on interior space.
We also appreciate that Kia gives the all-wheel-drive models – that is, all trims except the base LX – more ground clearance: 8.3 inches, vs the 7.1 of the front-drive LX.

FAQs

Our Favorite Features and Tech

Favorite Features

Tech and more tech: Where some rivals max out at 9-inch screens as standard, the Kia Sportage Hybrid has a 12.3-inch unit. Combined with the 12.3-inch instrument display, it makes a slick setup.
HUD: New to the 2026 model range, the top-line Sportage Hybrid SX Prestige gains a 10-inch head-up display that displays vital information on the windshield so you don’t have to take your eyes off the road.
Wireless connectivity: All 2026 Sportage Hybrid models have wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and the EX, X-Line, and SX Prestige trims get a wireless charging pad.
Over-the-air updates: You know how your phone and computer can get better over time? Thanks to OTA updates, the Sportage Hybrid can, too. No visit to the dealer is needed.
Highway Driving Assist 2: While all Sportage Hybrid models have adaptive cruise control, this system in the SX Prestige takes semi-autonomous driving to another level thanks to features like automatic lane changes and advanced lane centering.
Ventilated front seats: Another perk of the SX Prestige, your posterior will thank you on a hot summer’s day. This model also has a heated steering wheel and heated rear outboard seats.

Innovative Interior

Interior

Our editors have long been impressed with the Kia Sportage Hybrid’s interior, and for 2026, it only improves. All models now come standard with Kia’s innovative 12.3-inch dual panoramic displays, and a 10-inch head-up display is now fitted in the top-line SX Prestige trim. This kind of tech used to be the domain of expensive luxury cars.
Even the base model has a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and upholstery ranges from woven cloth to standard or premium SynTex, a synthetic leather.
One aspect we’ve found takes some getting used to is the dual audio/climate controls, which can be toggled to adjust each. Kia promises that switching between the functions is now more natural. We give the Sportage Hybrid kudos for making dual-zone climate control and rear AC vents standard, something human and canine passengers can both appreciate.
One aspect no one can quibble with is space. The Kia Sportage excels here, and that includes the hybrid. Behind the rear seats are 39.5 cubic feet of cargo room, which expands to 73.7 with the seats folded. That first figure is a touch bigger than the CR-V Hybrid’s, and the latter just a few behind. Rear-seat legroom is also impressive at 41.3 inches, a hair more than the Honda’s.

KBB Editors' Overview

A do-it-all compact SUV makes a lot of sense for a lot of buyers. And almost everyone can appreciate excellent fuel economy. Combine these two things, and you get a result better than PB&amp;J. This is our way of saying the 2026 Kia Sportage Hybrid is an incredibly sensible, practical, and innovative vehicle. It marries the best traits of the standard gas-powered <a href="https://www.kbb.com/kia/sportage/">Kia Sportage</a> and the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/kia/sportage-plug-in-hybrid/">Sportage Plug-in Hybrid</a> (both reviewed separately) into a model that’s high on value, ease of use, and features. The Kia Sportage lineup as a whole is quite vast, but we think the Sportage Hybrid, in particular, is the Goldilocks of them all.
We’ve logged hundreds of hours driving and evaluating this generation of <a href="https://www.kbb.com/hybrid/best-hybrid-suvs/">hybrid SUVs</a>, including the Kia Sportage Hybrid.

Optional Equipment

Pricing - Dynamic

Pricing - Static

We admire the overall value of the Kia Sportage Hybrid, when purchased and the potential fuel savings in the years ahead. Consider that the base Sportage Hybrid starts at $31,685. That’s just $1,600 over the base, gas-only version. According to the EPA, the hybrid version can save you roughly $600 a year in gas, which means in less than three years of ownership, the Sportage Hybrid’s small price premium will pay for itself.
If you can afford a bit more, we suggest stepping up to at least the new S trim, one trim up from the base LX. It includes standard all-wheel drive (AWD), blind-spot monitoring, 10-way power driver’s seat, heated front seats, 18-inch wheels, and more, all for just $2,300 extra. The caveat is that this trim and the higher ones have decreased fuel economy since they are all-wheel drive rather than the front-wheel drive (FWD) of the base LX model.
Yet even the second-to-the-top Sportage Hybrid X-Line, at $36,885, is below the starting price of the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/honda/cr-v-hybrid/">2026 Honda CR-V Hybrid</a> at $37,025. The all-new <a href="https://www.kbb.com/toyota/rav4/2026/">2026 Toyota RAV4</a> will be hybrid only, but pricing for that model is still to be announced. We expect the Kia’s cousin, the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/hyundai/tucson-hybrid/">Hyundai Tucson Hybrid</a>, to remain a bit higher, as does the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/mazda/cx-50-hybrid/">Mazda CX-50 Hybrid</a>.
Before buying a new Sportage Hybrid compact SUV, check the Kelley Blue Book Fair Purchase Price to know what you should really pay. Resale values are about average for the class. Recouping more money when selling a vehicle can mean a bigger down payment and lower monthly payments on the next one.

Engine & Transmission

Under the Hood

The Sportage Hybrid combines a turbocharged 1.6-liter 4-cylinder gasoline engine with two electric motors to create an appreciable 232 hp and 271 lb-ft of torque. Power goes through a 6-speed automatic transmission to either the front wheels (LX) or an all-wheel-drive system that’s standard in the higher trims. The 2026 Kia Sportage Hybrid can tow up to 2,000 pounds, twice the amount as the 2026 Honda CR-V Hybrid.
5-Year/60,000-Mile Warranty
Kia offers unbeatable warranties. New-car coverage is five years or 60,000 miles, whichever comes first (a typical warranty here is three years or 36,000 miles). The powertrain warranty lasts 10 years or 100,000 miles, much better than most competitors. The hybrid battery is also covered for 10 years or 100,000 miles.
Safety Ratings
This generation of Sportage (regardless of drivetrain) has been made a Top Safety Pick by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (<a href="https://www.iihs.org/ratings/">IIHS</a>), the institute’s second-highest accolade. It has also earned the top 5-Star crash rating by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Standard safety features include forward collision warning with pedestrian/cyclist detection and junction turning detection, lane-keeping assistance, driver attention monitor, adaptive cruise control, and more.
