The 2025 Sportage at a Glance
Sportage Overview The 2025 Kia Sportage is one of the highest-rated compact SUVs on sale today. Though the 2025 model doesn't have many upgrades, that's okay because it's coming from a strong foundation. Kia introduced the fifth-generation Sportage for the 2023 model year, and its combination of comfort, tech, and space - not to mention three different engines to choose from - stands out in a crowded market.
The Sportage aims for an upmarket vibe. You can tell by the dramatic, swooping headlights and classy rear styling. Inside the cabin, it's more of the same. Kia uses a creative mix of materials to create a soothing, comfortable interior. While there is a fair bit of affordable plastic to keep costs down, there is also a range of soft surfaces and satisfying metals. To top it off, models with the upgraded 12.3-inch touchscreen have a theater-like presentation rarely found in this class.
Space is, of course, a priority for buyers in this realm. The Sportage has a considerable advantage here, with an impressive 39.6 cubic feet of cargo capacity behind the second row of seats.

What is the Interior Like in the 2025 Sportage?
To answer your question in simple terms: stunning!Â
The Kia Sportage was redesigned in 2023, and that translated into more room for people and cargo. Although the Sportage keeps its compact-crossover designation, it is now at the top end of the class.
Front passengers also get plenty of space in addition to supportive and plush seats. All cabin materials have a quality look and feel. Base trims have cloth seats, while higher trims use synthetic leathers for a more upscale vibe. Leather, wood, and metal accents add to the appeal of the Sportage. Farther up the lineup you get heated and ventilated seats and a 10-way power-adjustable driver's seat. Though not a true luxury crossover, the Sportage has a comfortable, roomy, and attractive interior with an exceptional range of features for the price.Â

How does the 2025 Sportage Handle on the Road?
The 2025 Kia Sportage is available with a gas, hybrid, or plug-in hybrid engine, depending on the trim. There's also a choice of front-wheel or all-wheel drive. The base engine is a 2.5-liter four-cylinder with 187 horsepower and 178 pound-feet of torque paired to an eight-speed automatic transmission. However the Sportage handles well, providing an engaging driving experience, and there's minimal body roll which indicates high build quality. Steering is controlled and centered, with good feedback on twisting roads.
Up to four drive modes are available, depending on the configuration. Base trims offer Normal, Sport, and Smart with the availability of a Snow mode. The X-Pro and X-Pro Prestige enhance those modes with tuning for use with all-terrain tires. While this isn't a hard-core off-road vehicle, those trims can manage some bumps on the trail to a camping site. Whether it's a simple dirt track, a rutted incline, or a steep descent with soft dirt, the Sportage is ready for adventure.
