2026 Kia
Sportage Trims
The popular Sportage sports a refresh for 2026, with Kia concentrating on design and technology while also simplifying the trim choices. While the core layout and powertrain remain familiar, this mid-cycle version shows off new styling at the front and rear, along with updated LED lighting featuring amber “Star Map” daytime running lights. These exterior changes give the Sportage a more confident and modern look without straying from its recognizable profile. As for the interior, the reworked dashboard incorporates a seamless dual-screen panoramic layout for a cleaner and more cohesive look.
Kia has also added to the model’s connectivity features with improved over-the-air update capability, a built-in Wi-Fi hotspot, and deeper integration with smart devices through Kia Connect. Among the newly available amenities are a digital key, which allows drivers to lock, unlock, and start the vehicle using a compatible smartphone. Plus, a multi-mode terrain system with snow, mud, and sand settings for improved traction is included within the all-wheel drive option.
