Performance and Snow Driving Capability
Power meets poise in the 2026 Sportage. A 2.5L 4-cylinder engine generates 187 horsepower and 178 lbs.-ft. of torque, paired with a responsive 8-speed automatic transmission. For more adventurous drivers, the available AWD system with Multi-Terrain Mode optimizes traction on snow, gravel, or mud, giving the Sportage the versatility to adapt to any environment.
The X-Pro Prestige trim, equipped with 17-inch alloy wheels and all-terrain tires, maximizes grip and confidence on rougher terrain. Its elevated 8.3 inches of ground clearance inspires trust on unpaved routes and in deep winter snow.
