Air of change at home Come onmore precisely for the Sportagethe most important SUV in the Korean manufacturer’s range. Launched in 2021, the current generation will undergo a restyling in the coming months, with significant innovations not only in terms of aesthetics, but also in terms of interiors and engines.
Here it is in preview in our render.
Evolution based on Sorento (and not only)
Based on the spy photo of the Kia prototypes from the past few months, our graphic reconstruction highlights above all the stylistic evolution of the front area.

This is where the main aesthetic innovations of the Sportage will be concentrated, which will most likely adopt a style closer to what has already been seen on the Sorento, EV9 and K4, the compact sedan on sale (at the moment) only in the USA.
The current “broken” headlights should be replaced by even sharper graphics, while in the center we should find a grille “Tiger Nose” redesigned and thinner. Apart from new alloy wheels and body colours, the dimensions.
In fact, the Kia should retain its 4.52 m length, 1.87 m width and 1.65 m height.
The engines
Given the strong relationship with the Hyundai Tucson, it is likely that the Sportage will inherit a good part of the engines present in the range of its “cousin”, which has also recently been renewed with a restyling.

Currently, the Tucson can be ordered in the following versions: mild hybrid a benzina 160 HP, full hybrid 215 HP and plug-in hybrid 253 HP, with the latter allowing for ranges of over 60 km in electric mode. The price list also includes the 1.6 diesel mild hybrid 136 HP.
