The 2016 Kia Sportage is perfect for the road ahead. Whichever road you choose, the 2016 Sportage is more than ready. With agile handling, an exceptionally smooth ride, and a range of first-class features, every drive is more fun.

Under the Sportage's Hood

The 2016 Kia Sportage is likely going to get a new 1.6-liter turbocharged base engine which will match the performance of the old 2.4-liter mill. The top of the line model will still get the old 2-liter turbocharged engine which should be good for more than 260 horsepower, more than enough to make the tiny crossover blazing fast. However, the big news will likely come in the form of a new hybrid powertrain which should receive a 2-liter turbocharged diesel engine coupled to a six-speed manual and a 15-hp electric motor, option which could easily get as much as 50 miles per gallon on average while having decent performance thanks to its total of 148-hp and 305 pound-feet of torque.

Design of Kia Sportage

The new 2016 Kia Sportage will resemble a lot of the design showed in the chinese only Kia KX3, especially the front end. Inside, the Sportage will follow what we have already seen into the new Sorento. According to the report, Kia design team already finished Sportage's design.

How many trim levels are there on the Kia Sportage?

There are three trim levels: the LX, EX and SX. The 2016 Sportage stands out in the compact CUV segment with cutting edge design that doesn't compromise on space or utility.

What does Kia mean?
