Nov 17, 2021 at 2:15pm ET Show Last month Kia debuted the new Sportage, complete with a sharp new exterior design, stylish cabin, and a brand-new 2.5-liter engine option. Today we get our first look at that same Sportage, now with a hybrid powertrain that gives it up to 500 miles (805 kilometers) of range on a single fill-up. The 2023 Kia Sportage Hybrid boasts a turbocharged 1.6-liter engine paired to a 1.5-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack and a 44-kilowatt electric motor. Total system output sits at an impressive 226 horsepower (166 kilowatts) – a huge improvement over the base gas model's 187 horses (138 kW) – and fuel economy is listed at up to 39 miles per gallon. This hybrid Kia will even tow up to 2,000 pounds (907 kilograms).  400 miles | |
