2024 Kia Sportage Hybrid SUV Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2024 Kia Sportage Hybrid is a small SUV that's offered in three trim levels: LX, EX and SX Prestige. It's powered by a turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine mated to a hybrid system. Overall, this powertrain produces 227 horsepower. You have a choice of front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive in the base LX trim, but the EX and SX Prestige are only available with AWD. Keep reading for our breakdown of the significant features you get with each trim level.

  • Rear automatic braking (applies the brakes automatically to avoid an imminent collision with an object behind the vehicle)
  • Surround-view camera system (gives you a top-down view of the Sportage Hybrid and its surroundings for tight parking situations)

Which Sportage Hybrid trim does Edmunds recommend?

Unless you're aiming for the most efficient model, we recommend going with the midlevel EX trim. It comes with desirable features such as synthetic leather upholstery, heated front seats, a larger touchscreen and a wireless charging pad. All-wheel drive is included as well. You also have the option of adding the EX Premium package, which adds a panoramic sunroof, a hands-free liftgate and sharper-looking LED interior lighting.
