Miles Overview
The 2026 Kia Sportage is a compact SUV that slots between the smaller Seltos and the larger Sorento, offering a blend of style and practicality. It competes directly with the Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4, and Mazda CX-5, standing out with its bold design and available hybrid powertrains. The Sportage drives with a composed, refined feel, and the hybrid versions deliver strong acceleration while keeping fuel costs low. Its ride is smooth and well-controlled over most surfaces, though the larger wheels on upper trims transmit more road imperfections. Inside, the cabin is roomy and modern, with a dual-screen layout and generous cargo space that makes it a practical family choice. The LX is the base trim in the Sportage lineup, sitting below the EX and X-Line, and it skips the hybrid powertrain for a lower starting price. Its 2.5L I4 makes 187 horsepower and 178 lb-ft of torque, routed through a eight-speed automatic to all-wheel drive, and it returns 26 mpg combined. Standard 17-inch alloy wheels help keep the ride smooth, and the LX still includes the full Drive Wise safety suite and a 12.3-inch touchscreen.
