2022 Kia Sportage

Under the hood, the new Sportage has a choice of two engines; the Smartstream Diesel 2.0L engine that produces 186PS of power, 42.5kg-m of torque, and up to 14.6km/L of fuel economy while mated to an 8-speed AT and the high-performance Smartstream Gasoline 1.6L Turbo engine that produces 180PS of power, 27kg-m of torque, and up to 12.5kmpl of fuel economy while mated to a 7-speed DCT. Both the petrol and diesel variants are offered in front-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive configurations.

And for the first time in a Sportage, a hybrid variant is offered and it comes with the Smartstream Turbo Hybrid powertrain where the turbocharged 1.6L petrol engine is bolted to a 44.4kW electric motor and a li-ion battery, while mated to a 6-speed automatic gearbox. With this setup, the fuel economy is around 16.7km/L. The catch? It’s front-wheel-drive only so don’t expect much.

2023 Kia Sportage PHEV X-Line. 261 HP in a compact crossover not bad.


The 2.5L is naturally aspirated

I wish they did make a 2.5 Turbo, would be pretty quick :smiley:

Maybe if it gets added we can do that ourselves.
