Gas, Hybrid & Plug-In Hybrid Models
The 2026 Kia Sportage maximizes versatility to fit different people’s needs with three powertrains. You can choose from a gasoline engine, hybrid, or plug-in hybrid (PHEV). Each option pairs with the new Sportage’s tech-forward design, which features intuitive connectivity and an AWD system for added confidence on different terrain. Moreover, all of them offer a 2,000 lb (908 kg) towing capacity, which ensures they’re as practical as they’re powerful.
New Heads-Up Display
The 2026 Kia Sportage comes with an available Head-Up Display (HUD). It projects key driving information like speed, navigation and safety alerts directly on the windshield, perfectly positioned below your natural sightline. Moreover, this system can dynamically adjust brightness and contrast to stay crystal clear in both sunlight and dark environments.
Over-The-Air System Updates
The 2026 Kia Sportage is equipped with over-the-air (OTA) update functionality, which allows your kia to receive updates for various electronic control systems without frequent visits to the dealership. Whether it’s optimizing hybrid battery performance, enhancing navigation or updating collision-avoidance algorithms, your 2026 Sportage evolves alongside Kia’s latest innovations. It means you can continuously access new Kia features and performance tweaks, all while parked in your garage.
Highway Driving Assist 2
The 2026 Kia Sportage’s Highway Driving Assist 2, a smarter evolution of Kia’s driver-assistance tech, takes highway safety to the next level. Based on the previous generation of adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping features, Highway Driving Assist 2 now can automatically adjust steering to keep your Kia centered, even on curves. Moreover, it can subtly shift your Sportage within its lane if a neighbouring vehicle drifts too close.
Your Phone Is Your Key
The 2026 Kia Sportage lets you get rid of key fobs with Digital Key 2, which turn your smartphone into an all-access pass. Simply approach the vehicle and keep your phone in your pocket, then the Sportage unlocks automatically. With a simple tap on your phone, the engine starts. In addition, if you need to lend your SUV, you can share full or restricted access to your family members or friends via the Kia Connect App.
