The 2025 Kia Sportage comes in two efficient versions: the hybrid (HEV) and plug-in hybrid (PHEV). Each offers distinct advantages depending on your driving patterns and preferences. The Sportage HEV provides excellent fuel economy without changing how you refuel, while the PHEV adds the ability to drive on electric power alone for daily commutes.
Both models maintain the spacious interior, all-wheel drive capability, and practical features that make the Sportage popular, while significantly reducing fuel consumption.
