What Owners are Saying About the 2027 Kia Sportage
"The Hybrid part is good; The Kia part is terrible"
"We’ve owned our Sportage HEV for 2 years. In that two years, we’ve had the car at the dealership several times for things that fall under warranty….but what fun is it to have the following replaced on a garage-kept, hand washed, meticulously maintained car: door handle replacement, headlight replacement, rear hatch lock replacement. Now that the car has 30K miles, it’s time for another headlight replacement, another door handle replacement and the turbo is malfunctioning. The dealership assures us that everything is fine but I will not be purchasing another Kia. We love the hybrid feature. We do not enjoy the lackluster sound system and terrible build quality. Eight trips to the shop to have things fixed in the first 2 years isn’t my idea of a good vehicle."
"Second Sportage Hybrid"
"My 2019 Kia Optima EX, which came with the same 1.6 liter turbo used in the hybrid, was totalled last November when I was stopped for construction traffic. So I had to get a new car. My wife has a 2023 Kia Sportage hybrid SX Prestige which is close to 3 years old. We have had no problems with it and it rides better than some luxury cars we have ridden in so I ended up replacing the 2019 Optima with a 2026 Kia Sportage hybrid SX Prestige with the only option being the homelink self-dimming mirror. The ride is similar to the 2023 Sportage, including how quiet the vehicle is. My 2026 has less than 1,500 miles on it and is averaging 34.7 mpg; the EPA rating is 35! The 2026 come standard with even more standard features than the 2023: automatic folding side-view mirrors, heated rear seats and heads-up display. I am tired of black and/or gray interiors. My Sportage is wolf gray with, what I call, a terracotta interior. My Optima was virtually trouble free in the seven years I owned it and the 2023 Sportage has been trouble free in over two and a half years of ownership."
"Transmission Hesitates"
"I have a 2026 KIA Sportage X Line where the transmission has a hesitation and hard shift. I have had this car at the dealers 4 times now and the car has a little over 11,000 miles. I have been told this transmission has a dual clutch and once was told it has the CVT. So far no answers or suggestions. The dealer says the next step will be to keep the car a few days to see if they can experience the hesitation and or hard shifting. The car does this in regular mode and sport mode."
