The SUV features a 226-horsepower turbocharged hybrid powertrain within that aims to offer an impressive 39mpg performance for more than 500-miles of driving range. The brand reports that the vehicle would also reduce CO2 emissions by almost 40% over the previous model.

The 2023 Kia Sportage Hybrid is based on the all-new Sportage model that was revealed last month, and will also provide a comfortable in-car experience thanks to ample rear seat legroom, cargo space and more.
