Spacious and capable on all terrains, the 2025 Kia Sportage is a versatile crossover SUV for families. This year's lineup includes three versions that use gas, hybrid, and plug-in hybrid powertrains. This guide highlights each option's strengths to help you find your match. 3 Powertrain Options for the 2025 Kia Sportage Lineup Conventional Gas Powertrain A great choice for active families, the Sportage and its conventional gas powertrain boasts terrain-conquering abilities and great towing capacity. This setup pairs a 2.5L inline-4 engine with an eight-speed automatic transmission for a net output of 187 horsepower and 178 pound-feet of torque. Front-wheel drive is standard for many trim levels and comes with Normal, Sport, and Smart drive modes so you can easily adjust the output to your needs. All-wheel drive is available and is a great upgrade if you need off-road prowess. The Sportage offers a towing capacity when properly equipped with trailer brakes of 2,500 pounds, which is more than enough for a variety of camper trailers. more Conventional Hybrid Powertrain If you need a spacious SUV for city driving and road trips, the Sportage hybrid engine can be the ideal choice for you. This powertrain uses a 1.6L turbocharged inline-4 engine and a full parallel hybrid system, generating a combined output of 227 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. Front-wheel drive is standard on the base Sportage Hybrid trim and provides an EPA-estimated 43 MPG combined. All-wheel drive is optional on the base trim and standard on the upper models.

Like the gas-powered Sportage, the Sportage Hybrid can be customized with trailer brakes for a towing capacity of up to 2,000 pounds. Plug-In Hybrid Powertrain The Sportage PHEV pairs the benefits of a gas engine with ​those of an electric vehicle, allowing you to enjoy the best of both worlds. Like the Sportage Hybrid, this model uses a 1.6L turbocharged inline-4 engine, but pairs ​it with an 88 kW battery and an all-wheel drive system to ​generate a net output of 261 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque ​combined.
