Performance Upgrades from the Outgoing Model

The first change with the 2023 model is the standard 2.5L four-cylinder engine that pumps out 187 horsepower. For the low 2023 Kia Sportage price, you’ll have a hard time finding another model that can compete against this. Plus, it pairs with an 8-speed automatic transmission, which is an upgrade from the previous 6-speed automatic. You can choose front- or all-wheel drive with this gas powertrain.

However, what’s most exciting is the addition of the 2023 Kia Sportage Hybrid lineup. With a single electric motor and the 1.6L turbo-four, you can expect 226 horsepower. There’s also a plug-in hybrid variant with a bigger battery, a more powerful motor and standard all-wheel drive. Heading off the beaten path is also fun with the new Sportage lineup. Choose the 2023 Sportage X-Line to get 19-inch wheels along with 8.3-inches of ground clearance or splurge on the X-Pro for the standard all-terrain tires.

Style Never Looked So Good

The 2023 Kia Sportage received a nice facelift for the new model year. The updated headlights give it a new style with its fancy grilled design. The body is bolder than it ever was before and it’s slightly larger. This extra space offers you a roomier cabin and added cargo space, so you can take it all with you.

Speaking of the 2023 Kia Sportage interior, you still have room to hold five people, but they have more space to spread out and get comfortable. The digital dashboard display is sure to catch eyes, while the center console has everything you need to control your SUV. The 40 cubic feet of cargo space matches well with the dual-level floor to offer the versatility you never knew you needed. You’ll find the same level of capability within the doors of the 2023 Sportage Hybrid models too.

Tech at Every Angle

You should never lack anything whether you choose to drive a Sportage LX or you seek to enjoy the 2023 Kia Sportage Hybrid SX Prestige. Standard with the base model is an 8” touchscreen display, but you could easily choose the larger 12.3” model instead. With the standard Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ connectivity, you have access to everything that matters to you on the road.

If you are ready to be blasted out of the front seats of your 2023 Kia Sportage, upgrade to the available Harman Kardon sound system. It comes standard with the Prestige trims, along with wireless device charging so your compatible phone isn’t dead when you arrive at your destination. May we also recommend the benefits of having an available navigation system onboard, especially when you are trying to get through a new area? The capability is priceless.

Advanced Safety Measures Unite

In the 2023 Kia Sportage, you never have anything to worry about with all of the high-tech safety features working on your side. The standard automatic emergency braking system can prevent a collision from occurring, thereby ensuring your safety. With the electronic stability control system, you also prevent body roll from occurring.

Beyond these systems, you may choose to equip the 2023 Kia Sportage with the available adaptive cruise control technology. Without worrying about how fast you are traveling, you will spend less time stressing and more time experiencing what’s around you. Plus, the available blind spot monitor keeps an eye on the areas you can’t see as well.
