The 2026 Kia Sportage HEV offers families in Manitoba three distinct hybrid trim levels, each designed to match different priorities and budgets. With a revised hybrid system delivering 231 hp, standard all-wheel drive, and 2,000 lb (907 kg) towing capacity across the lineup, the Sportage HEV pairs efficiency with versatility for daily commutes and weekend adventures.
Understanding the differences between the EX HEV, EX Premium HEV, and SX HEV trims helps you identify which configuration aligns with your family's needs. Each trim builds on the same efficient hybrid foundation while adding features and refinements that enhance everyday usability and capability.
Every trim features the same 1.6-litre turbo gasoline direct injection engine paired with a 47.7 kW electric motor, delivering 231 hp through a 6-speed automatic transmission. This revised hybrid system achieves a fuel economy rating of 6.7 L/100 km while maintaining 2,000 lb (907 kg) towing capacity when properly equipped.
All Sportage HEV models include active all-wheel drive, regenerative braking, and e-Handling technology that enhances cornering stability through electrically assisted handling performance. The dual-level cargo floor provides flexible carrying capabilities for gear, groceries, or weekend project supplies. Safety features like e-EHA (Electrically Evasive Handling Assist) come standard, helping drivers maintain control during sudden manoeuvres.
The EX HEV starts at $41,245. Pricing shown reflects the price at the time of writing. Final pricing may vary. This entry trim delivers the full hybrid powertrain, all-wheel drive capability, and essential comfort features that define the Sportage HEV lineup.
Families choosing the EX HEV receive the complete suite of hybrid technologies including regenerative braking and e-Handling, along with the dual-level cargo floor for flexible storage. The trim provides everything needed for efficient daily driving and weekend versatility.
New for 2026, the EX Premium HEV at $44,245 bridges the gap between the foundation EX and the top-tier SX. This newly added trim expands the range of price points available to Canadian families considering the transition to hybrid vehicles.
The EX Premium HEV builds on the EX foundation with additional features that enhance daily usability. This trim appeals to families seeking more refinement than the base model offers while maintaining a more accessible price point than the SX HEV.
At $47,745, the SX HEV offers the pinnacle of the Sportage HEV lineup. This trim adds the highest level of features, technology, and refinement available in the hybrid configuration.
Families choosing the SX HEV gain access to premium materials, advanced technology features, and enhancements that improve every journey. The SX trim delivers the complete Sportage HEV experience with all available refinements for those who prioritize maximum comfort and capability.
