The Sportage Hybrid is the hybrid version of Kia's top selling medium SUV, with the same sharp styling, roomy cabin and seven year warranty, but with a turbo petrol hybrid that pairs strong power with real world economy. It's the pick for city and suburban driving, and for 2026 it's offered in both front wheel drive and a grippier all wheel drive. The range runs from the well equipped S through SX to the luxury GT-Line. The petrol and diesel models are listed separately.

The AutoFocus Verdict

The S Hybrid is the cheapest way into the hybrid, and in FWD form it uses the least fuel of any Sportage. It still comes with the big screen and the standard safety features, so the essentials are covered. The real decision here is drivetrain: FWD is the frugal pick, while AWD costs a little economy but helps on wet or loose roads. Spend more only if you want the comfort gear the SX adds.
