Exterior Design

Reimagined Design

The 2023 Kia Sportage has cultivated a new design aesthetic centred on harmonious contrast. An “Opposites United” philosophy highlights and celebrates the versatility of the new Sportage. LED boomerang-shaped daytime running lights embrace sleek, horizontal positioning lights, diamond-shaped headlamps, and a textured hexagonal grille. Combined with strong, sculpted flanks and a wide set liftgate, the 2023 Kia Sportage design is both clean and distinct.

Lighting

Along with the stunning new light designs, the 2023 Sportage is equipped with LED lights across the board for the best possible illumination on the road ahead. Automatic LED headlights, a high mount stop lamp, positioning lights, multi-reflector headlights, and
trailer lighting all come together to brighten your path and secure your safety.

Interior Design

Cargo Space

The mark of a good SUV is ample cargo space and the 2023 Kia Sportage offers this in spades. Up to 2,098L of cargo space (rear seats folded) graces an already spacious cabin and plenty of small item storage. The available Smart Power liftgate is also a great attribute when it’s time to take advantage of all that cargo space.

Driver-Centric Interior

The 2023 Sportage’s driver-oriented cockpit is practical, ergonomic, and empowering. Select trims offer heated front seats, a leather-wrapped heated steering wheel, power adjustable driver’s seat, driver memory technology, and much more for optimal comfort and driving longevity. The available 24.5-inch dual panoramic HD display serves as both your infotainment and vehicle information/control panel for maximum convenience.

Performance

Fuel Efficiency

Kia’s reputation for great fuel efficiency is further bolstered by the 2023 Sportage with one of the best fuel efficiency ratings in its class. The base trim of this SUV (the LX FWD) offers a tight 8.5L/100km in combined fuel economy with higher trims only one litre behind at 9.5L/100km. Clearly, the 2023 Sportage reaffirms Kia’s power without compromise stance.

Engine Options

The 2023 Sportage has ushered in gas, plug-in hybrid, and a turbo hybrid options, effectively upping its green driving game into the quickly-expanding zero emissions auto industry aspirations. An impressive 1.6L Turbo Hybrid (HEV) engine brings 227 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque to the Sportage’s performance; a leap of almost 25% and 40% (respectively) from the 2.5L gas engine.

The other side is a driver instrument panel with a plethora of vehicle information including live-feed data on fuel economy.

Safety

Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) Technology

Aside from great style, comfort, and efficiency, a well-rounded SUV is nothing without elevated safety. The 2023 Kia Sportage delivers this with its Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) technology. Where your vision ends, the ADAS begins. With sophisticated sensors and cameras, this technology will help prevent rear collisions with audio and visual proximity alerts in addition to emergency braking intervention.

Blind View Monitor

Take the shoulder check, neck strain, and anxiety out of lane changes with the Sportage’s available Blind View Monitor. This extra set of eyes will display a live feed of the rear traffic when you activate your turn signal.

All-New 2023 Sportage Model Changes

This all-new generation of the Kia Sportage has undergone a total redesign to reflect the versatility and modern insight of the beloved SUV. High contrast design elements, the incredibly intuitive dashboard-mounted infotainment screen, and an upgraded chassis all come together for a revitalised character and dynamic driving experience. The 2023 Sportage’s new hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrains also offer a new channel towards emissions-free driving.
