2025 Kia Sportage
Compact-crossover SUVs are popular for their combination of versatility and space along with a modicum of style, but performance is not a priority. So, it’s not surprising to find that the Kia Sportage offers a generous list of standard equipment and an enticing array of options along with versatility and space at an affordable starting price. The two-row Sportage’s reasonable tariff comes with a caveat: its 187-hp four-cylinder engine doesn’t supply nearly the thrust found in the pricier Sportage Hybrid and plug-in hybrid (PHEV), which we review separately. Front-wheel drive is standard. All-wheel drive is available on all trims save the SX and standard on upper trim levels. The Sportage’s prices are more affordable compared to those of competitors such as the Mazda CX-5 and Honda CR-V. Redesigned for 2023, the Sportage wears the latest in Kia automotive couture, sharing much of its underpinnings with its corporate cousin, the Hyundai Tucson, including its vehicle architecture, powertrains, and overall size. However, the Sportage seems more fashion-forward compared to its more traditionally styled relative.
Pricing and Which One to Buy
The price of the 2025 Kia Sportage starts at $28.785 and goes up to $39.685 depending on the trim and options.
Engine, Transmission, and Performance
The Sportage's default powertrain is a 187-hp 2.5-liter four-cylinder that mates to an eight-speed automatic transmission and either front- or all-wheel drive. A hybrid is also offered, but we review that model separately. Rugged-looking trims such as the X-Line give the compact ute an off-road vibe in terms of looks, but the X-Pro trim actually has some equipment to help tackle the rough stuff. It rides on black 17-inch rims and all-terrain tires and features a selection of drive modes.
0-60-MPH Times
We sampled both the base four-cylinder and the hybrid powertrain during our initial test drive and were more satisfied with the hybrid. At our test track, the nonhybrid Sportage delivered sleepy acceleration, needing 9.1 seconds to hit 60 mph—versus only 7.4 seconds for the hybrid.
