Kia unveiled the hybrid version of the fifth generation of the Sportage at the 2021 Los Angeles Auto Show.

After 28 years since the Sportage's first generation, Kia unveiled the fifth sequel of its compact SUV, with a version designed exclusively for the European market.

The 2018 KIA Sportage represents an enhanced iteration of one of the most popular medium-sized SUVs globally. It introduces a refreshed exterior and interior design and enhanced safety and infotainment technologies. Moreover, KIA's powertrains and auxiliary systems comply with upcoming emissions standards, demonstrating a commitment to environmental responsibility and a promise toward a greener future.

In 2015 Kia introduced the fourth generation of its compact-sized crossover Sportage at the Frankfurt Motor Show, and the new model boasted a more refined look and upscale amenities.

Revealed in 2013 for the 2014, the new Sportage’s exterior design was heavily enhanced and made it stand out in the crowd.

Kia introduced a facelift for the second generation of its small-sized SUV in 2008, improving both the look and the powertrain.

The second generation of the Sportage was hugely different than its predecessor, and, starting with the 2004 model, it came with unibody construction, replacing the body-on-frame solution that was previously used.
