The 2026 Kia EV9 delivers spacious adult seating across all three rows while starting thousands of dollars below luxury rivals. Built on an ultra-fast 800-volt architecture, the EV9 recharges from 10% to 80% in under 25 minutes to significantly outperform competitors in real-world charging speed. Every EV9 comes backed by Kia's industry-leading 10-year/100,000-mile warranty and standard Drive Wise safety technologies. The three-row family EV segment is where automakers are pushing the boundaries of space, tech, and performance. While luxury and boutique EV brands were early to market, the 2026 Kia EV9 continues to change the paradigm. It combines an ultra-fast 800-volt charging architecture, adult-friendly third-row seating, and pricing that comfortably undercuts its luxury competitors. The 2026 EV9 makes a compelling case against the Rivian R1S, Volvo EX90, and Tesla Model X. 2026 Kia EV9 Overview Following its award-winning debut, the 2026 Kia EV9 carries forward as the benchmark for practical, family-sized electric SUVs. Building on its ultra-versatile platform, the 2026 EV9 offers both rear-wheel drive and dual-motor all-wheel drive configurations across multiple trims. Highlights include standard 800V DC fast charging capable of going from 10% to 80% in under 25 minutes, standard 3-row seating, and available VIP relaxation seats. Starting around $55,000 and topping out near $75,000, the 2026 EV9 delivers luxury-level features without the luxury-brand markup. 2026 Rivian R1S Overview The 2026 Rivian R1S is built for drivers who want off-road capability combined with three-row utility. Available in Dual, Tri, and Quad-motor setups, the 2026 R1S delivers immense horsepower, high towing capacity, and impressive ground clearance. However, that capability comes with a starting price pushing near $76,000 and quickly reaching six figures for top-tier configurations. 2026 Volvo EX90 Overview The 2026 Volvo EX90 brings classic Scandinavian minimalism into the flagship 3-row electric space. Focused on understated luxury, sustainable interior materials, and industry-leading sensor technology, the 2026 EX90 appeals to safety-conscious luxury buyers. Starting around $80,000, it delivers smooth performance and refined road manners, though it commands a premium price tag over mainstream family EVs. 2026 Tesla Model X Overview The 2026 Tesla Model X remains the veteran contender in this class. Known for its signature Falcon Wing rear doors, swift acceleration, and integration with the Supercharger network, the 2026 Model X continues to attract tech enthusiasts. Starting around $80,000 for basic configurations and climbing rapidly for the Plaid variant, its higher cost and unique door layout present trade-offs compared to traditional SUV designs. Performance & Powertrain Comparison Each of these three-row EVs takes a different approach to power delivery. Rivian R1S shoppers want maximum horsepower and off-road grit, Volvo EX90 buyers want composed, air-suspended cruising, and Tesla Model X drivers want the fastest straight-line acceleration in the segment. The 2026 Kia EV9 slots in as the balanced option 2026 Kia EV9 Performance The 2026 Kia EV9 offers a choice between a single-motor rear-wheel-drive layout producing 215 horsepower or a dual-motor all-wheel-drive powertrain. It delivers up to 379 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque (with Boost mode). The AWD variant accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in roughly 4.5 to 5.0 seconds. 2026 Rivian R1S Performance Performance is the 2026 Rivian R1S headline feature. Output ranges from 533 horsepower in the base Dual-Motor setup to over 1,000 horsepower in high-end Quad-Motor trims. It sprints from 0 to 60 mph in as little as 2.6 seconds when equipped with the highest-output powertrain. Range options span between 270 and 410 miles, though its heavy curb weight impacts energy efficiency. 2026 Volvo EX90 Performance The 2026 Volvo EX90 features standard dual-motor all-wheel drive, generating 402 horsepower in standard form or 510 horsepower with the Performance package. Acceleration to 60 mph takes roughly 4.7 seconds in the Performance trim. Its estimated range reaches up to 300 miles on a full charge, backed by an air suspension system tuned for composure and ride comfort. 2026 Tesla Model X Performance The standard 2026 Tesla Model X dual-motor powertrain produces 670 horsepower with an EPA-estimated range of around 335 miles. Stepping up to the 2026 Model X Plaid adds a third motor for a massive 1,020 horsepower and a 0-60 mph time of 2.5 seconds. While unmatched in straight-line speed, its ride firmness leans more towards performance than plush cruising. Interior Luxury and Comfort Comparison Cabin materials and passenger space set these four SUVs apart just as much as what's under the hood. Rivian and Volvo lean on premium, sustainability-minded materials, Tesla trades traditional comfort touches for a minimalist, screen-first cabin, and the 2026 Kia EV9 counters with third-row space and available relaxation seating. 2026 Kia EV9 Interior The 2026 Kia EV9 boasts one of the most versatile cabins in the segment. It offers genuine 7-passenger capacity or a 6-passenger layout with second-row captain’s chairs. Higher trims feature executive VIP Relaxation Seats with power leg rests, heating, and ventilation. Cargo space behind the third row is a generous 20.2 cubic feet, expanding to a massive 81.7 cubic feet with all rear seats folded down. Synthetic SynTex leather, ambient lighting, and acoustic glass create a refined, quiet cabin atmosphere. 2026 Rivian R1S Interior The 2026 Rivian R1S blends rugged utility with premium materials, incorporating vegan leather and real wood accents. It offers seating for seven and exceptional cargo capacity, including a large front trunk (frunk). However, space in the third row is noticeably tighter for adult passengers compared to the roomier floor plan of the  2026 EV9. 2026 Volvo EX90 Interior True to Scandinavian design, the 2026 Volvo EX90 cabin uses Nordico synthetic upholstery, wool blend options, and backlit wood trim. The seating is ergonomically designed for long-distance travel, though third-row legroom is best suited for kids or shorter trips. 2026 Tesla Model X Interior The 2026 Tesla Model X cabin is ultra-minimalist, dominated by a large central screen and an optional steering yoke. While visually striking, the cabin lacks traditional physical controls. The Falcon Wing doors make third-row entry unique, but interior storage flexibility falls slightly short of standard boxy SUV layouts. Technology and Charging Speed Comparison Charging architecture and infotainment design vary widely across this group. Rivian and Tesla build their own proprietary systems without native smartphone mirroring. Volvo centers its cabin around Google Built-In, and the 2026 Kia EV9 pairs an 800-volt platform with familiar wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support. 2026 Kia EV9 Technology The 2026 Kia EV9 leads the class in real-world charging convenience thanks to its 800-volt architecture. When connected to a 350 kW DC fast charger, it recharges from 10% to 80% in approximately 20 to 24 minutes. Up front, a panoramic triple-screen display combines a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster, a 5.0-inch climate display, and a 12.3-inch infotainment screen. Wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Digital Key 2.0, and Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) bidirectional power capability come standard. 2026 Rivian R1S Technology The 2026 Rivian R1S uses a custom infotainment system centered on a 15.6-inch touchscreen. While feature-rich with built-in navigation and off-road telemetry, it notably lacks native support for Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. Its 400V architecture results in typical 10-80% DC fast charge times around 30 to 40 minutes. 2026 Volvo EX90 Technology Centering its layout around a 14.5-inch vertical display powered by Google Built-In, the 2026 Volvo EX90 provides seamless integration with Google Maps and Assistant. Fast-charging capability allows a 10-80% charge in about 30 minutes under ideal conditions. 2026 Tesla Model X Technology Tesla’s 17-inch cinematic center screen controls virtually every vehicle function in the 2026 Model X. Access to the Tesla Supercharger network remains a major convenience benefit. However, like the Rivian, the 2026 Tesla Model X does not support Apple CarPlay or Android Auto natively. Safety and Driver Assistance Comparison Safety is a strong suit across this entire segment, though each automaker approaches it a little differently. Kia leans on a comprehensive Drive Wise suite, Rivian backs its system with an extensive camera and radar array, Volvo builds its reputation around sensor technology and occupant monitoring, and Tesla pairs standard driver assistance with a chassis built to earn top crash-test ratings. 2026 Kia EV9 Safety Kia equips every 2026 EV9 with the robust Drive Wise suite. Coupled with Kia's proven track record in IIHS crash testing, the 2026 EV9 provides complete peace of mind for families. 2026 Kia EV9 Standard Safety Technology: Auto Emergency Braking Blind-Spot View Monitor Highway Driving Assist 2 (HDA2) Automatic Lane Changing Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance 2026 Rivian R1S Safety Rivian's Driver+ system comes standard on the 2026 R1S, offering hands-free highway driving assistance backed by an extensive sensor array. 2026 Rivian R1S Standard Safety Technology: Driver+ Hands-Free Highway Driving Assist Adaptive Cruise Control Lane-Keeping Assistance 11-Camera / 5-Radar Sensor Suite 2026 Volvo EX90 Safety Volvo makes safety its headline feature with the 2026 EX90. It builds the cabin around sensor technology designed to protect both occupants and vulnerable road users outside the vehicle. 2026 Volvo EX90 Standard Safety Technology: Roof-Mounted Lidar Sensor Interior Driver-Understanding System Occupant Detection (To Help Prevent Leaving Children Or Pets Behind) 2026 Tesla Model X Safety The 2026 Tesla Model X comes standard with Autopilot and consistently earns top ratings in crash testing thanks to its rigid chassis architecture. 2026 Tesla Model X Standard Safety Technology: Standard Autopilot Driver-Assistance Suite Optional Full Self-Driving (Supervised) Rigid Chassis Architecture 2026 Pricing and Value When looking strictly at standard equipment relative to sticker price, the 2026 Kia EV9 delivers unmatched value in the 3-row EV segment. Additionally, Kia backs the EV9 with a 10-year / 100,000-mile Powertrain and EV System Limited Warranty alongside a 5-year / 60,000-mile Basic Warranty. This far outlasts the 4-year coverage offered by Rivian, Volvo, and Tesla. Kia EV9: Starts between $54,900 and $73,900+ Rivian R1S: Starts between $75,900 and $99,000+ Volvo EX90: Starts between $79,990 and $90,000+ Tesla Model X: Starts between $79,990 and $94,990+ Test Drive a 2026 Kia EV9 at Lawton Kia Each of these 2026 three-row electric SUVs caters to a distinct buyer profile. The 2026 Rivian R1S excels off-road; 2026 Volvo EX90 delivers minimalist luxury; the 2026 Tesla Model X emphasizes straight-line speed. However, the 2026 Kia EV9 hits the sweet spot for Southwestern Oklahoma families. It offers adult-sized third-row comfort, ultra-fast 800V charging, comprehensive safety tech, and an unbeatable 10-year warranty, all at a price point thousands less than the competition.

The 2026 Kia Carnival is powered by a 287-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 engine and offers up to 145.1 cubic feet of cargo space. It’s available in five trim levels including the LX, LSX, EX, XS, and the XS Prestige. The 2026 Kia Carnival is backed by Kia's industry-leading 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty. If you're shopping for a vehicle that can handle the chaos of family life without looking like it gave up on style, the 2026 Kia Carnival deserves a long, hard look. It seats up to eight passengers, packs in more standard technology than most luxury SUVs, and starts at a price that won't keep you up at night. With its bold SUV-inspired exterior, a genuinely impressive interior, and a safety suite that covers nearly every scenario, the Carnival has evolved far beyond what people used to call a "minivan." This is a modern family vehicle done right. 2026 Kia Carnival Overview The 2026 Kia Carnival is a three-row, front-wheel-drive multi-purpose vehicle available in five gas-powered trim levels: LX, LXS, EX, SX, and SX Prestige. A 2026 Carnival Hybrid lineup runs parallel with four trims of its own. The gas model is assembled in South Korea and seats seven or eight passengers depending on second-row configuration. For 2026, available exterior colors include: Aurora Black Pearl Snow White Pearl Panthera Metal Flare Red Ceramic Silver Deep Chroma Blue Ivory Silver The SX Dark Edition package is also available on upper trims, adding a blacked-out grille, dark mirrors, dark badges, and 19-inch dark-finish wheels for a more assertive urban look. Wheel sizing scales with trim. The base LX rides on 17-inch alloy wheels, while the EX, SX, and SX Prestige step up to more prominent 19-inch designs. Front-Wheel Drive Performance Every gas-powered 2026 Carnival is powered by a 3.5-liter DOHC V6 engine that produces 287 horsepower at 6,400 rpm and 260 lb-ft of torque at 5,000 rpm. Power is sent to the front wheels through an 8-speed shiftable automatic transmission. All-wheel drive is not available on the gas powered 2026 Carnival, but the front-wheel-drive setup is well-sorted and predictable. The four-wheel independent suspension features front and rear stabilizer bars for composed, controlled handling. Ground clearance sits at 6.8 inches, and the 2026 Carnival can tow up to 3,500 pounds when properly equipped, making it surprisingly useful for light trailering duties. For shoppers who want better efficiency without giving up practicality, the 2026 Carnival Hybrid pairs a 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with an electric motor for a combined output of 242 horsepower and 271 lb-ft of torque. EPA-Rated Fuel Economy The standard V6 2026 Carnival is EPA-rated at 18 mpg city and 25 mpg highway, with a combined rating of 21 mpg. The 19.0-gallon fuel tank gives you a highway range of approximately 475 miles on a full tank, and the engine runs on regular unleaded gasoline. Step up to the 2026 Carnival Hybrid and the numbers improve dramatically: the hybrid earns an EPA-estimated 33 mpg combined, nearly doubling the gas model's city fuel economy and making a compelling case for the higher upfront cost over time. Top Speeds The 2026 Kia Carnival's 3.5L V6 engine reaches 60 mph from a standstill in roughly 7.0 to 7.5 seconds. The newly introduced 1.6L turbo-hybrid powertrain, however, is a bit more leisurely off the line, with 0-60 mph times estimated between 7.8 and 9.2 seconds. Best In Class Interior The 2026 Kia Carnival interior is where this vehicle really makes its case. Cargo capacity reaches 145.1 cubic feet with all seats folded, and even with all three rows in use, there's still 40.2 cubic feet of space behind the third row. That's the best-in-class room by a significant margin. Color-selectable ambient interior lighting is available on higher trims, adding a polished, atmospheric feel to the cabin during evening drives. Both front seats come with multi-level heating standard, and ventilated front seats are available on the SX Prestige. Seating materials vary across the lineup. The base LX comes with cloth upholstery. The LXS, EX, and SX trims are fitted with leatherette surfaces. Available interior color combinations include: Tuscan Umber/Off-Black Leatherette Off-Black/Taupe Leatherette Deep Navy/Misty Gray Leatherette Caramel Leatherette The second row is where the 2026 Kia Carnival separates itself from the competition. The available Slide-Flex seating system lets the center second-row seat slide and fold into a flat table surface that passengers in both rear rows can use. On SX and SX Prestige trims, optional VIP Lounge Seats feature one-touch power recline, power footrests, and individual heating and ventilation for a genuine first-class experience. Strong in Technology Every 2026 Kia Carnival trim comes standard with a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment display. On upper trims, a second 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster display joins the party, creating a sweeping dual-screen panoramic setup that spans the entire width of the dashboard. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard across all trims. Seven USB ports are distributed throughout the cabin, and wireless device charging is available. Google Assistant integration comes standard, and a Bose premium 12-speaker audio system is available. Available dual 14.6-inch rear-seat entertainment screens make long road trips dramatically more peaceful. Kia's Digital Key 2.0 lets you use a compatible smartphone as a key fob on upper trims. A Smart Power Tailgate allows hands-free access to the rear cargo area. An available Passenger View Camera with Night Vision uses the infotainment display to show rear-seat occupants even in low-light conditions. Standard Safety Features The 2026 Carnival comes equipped with 18 standard driver assistance features, placing it at the front of the class for standard safety content. Every trim includes: Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist Lane Keeping Assist Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist Driver Attention Warning Safe Exit Assist, and Rear Occupant Alert Pre-Collision and Post-Collision Safety Systems Upper trims add additional safety features including: Navigation-Based Smart Cruise Control With Stop And Go, Highway Driving Assist 2 For Semi-Autonomous Highway Travel, And The Full 360-Degree Camera Suite The airbag system includes dual front side-mounted airbags, front and rear and third-row head curtain airbags, and passenger airbag occupant-sensing deactivation. Four-wheel ABS, electronic stability control, and traction control round out the passive and active safety systems. Price of the 2026 Kia Carnival The 2026 Kia Carnival price starts around $37,000 MSRP for the base LX trim. That starting price puts it in a strong position against rivals like the Honda Odyssey and Toyota Sienna, both of which start higher and offer less standard content. You can expect the top SX Prestige trim to cost around $52,000. Price by Trim It’s important to note that the prices listed below are strictly estimates. We highly recommend you visit your local Kia dealer in person to ensure accurate prices. LX: $37,390 LXS: $39,390 EX: $41,590 SX: $46,490 SX Prestige: $51,490 Kia Warranty Kia backs the 2026 Carnival with one of the most comprehensive warranties in the automotive industry. The basic bumper-to-bumper limited warranty runs 5 years or 60,000 miles, covering defects in materials and workmanship across the vehicle. The powertrain limited warranty extends to 10 years or 100,000 miles, covering the engine, transmission, and drivetrain components. Anti-perforation coverage protects the body against rust-through for 5 years with no mileage cap. Roadside assistance is included for 5 years or 60,000 miles.

The 2025 Kia Sportage continues the line's stylish and dependable legacy. With good mpg and solid acceleration, drivers will move comfortably on city smaller-town streets. Checkout the levels of this 2025 Kia Sportage at Lawton Kia. With impressive updates in style and solid mpg, we know this year’s 2025 Kia Sportage model is worth checking out. This vehicle offers everything you want in a compact SUV and more. The 2025 Kia Sportage not only comes in at an exceptional price, it offers even more range with its seven different trims. The changes are noticeable on the inside and outside. And fear not hybrid lovers, there is something here for you too. The 2025 Kia Sportage exudes confidence, and we think rightfully so. If you loved last year's model, or even have ever noticed the Sportage from afar, consider the new 2025 model. The 2025 Kia Sportage Overview It is hard not to notice any of the Kia Sportage models on the road. We think the 2025 Kia Sportage styling will be no different from the bold and attractive models already out there. A sister of Hyundai, Kia also designs their cars to be a little wacky and quirky, in a fresh way. We think you’ll like this car’s performance in addition to its style. The 2025 Kia Sportage is for anywhere and anything urban / suburban. With the hybrid version you will get more range, which is already pretty reliable in the standard version. The interior of this switches things up from other compact SUVs, giving you and your family members room to grow (literally for some of them). With incredible safety features, and the option to self-park, we think this car couldn’t level up the standards more if it tried. Engine Performance The 2025 Kia Sportage offers many options when it comes to performance. Regardless of which engine you choose to put in this eclectic and energizing SUV, you will find responsive acceleration and smooth performance on the road. The standard model starts out with a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine that is meant to support balance and efficiency. Other engine options, including a hybrid and turbocharged versions, are configurable. The SUV comes with front-wheel and all-wheel-drive variants. The X-Pro Trim with its all-wheel-drive all-terrain tires variant provides solid stability for any low-grade off-roading a driver desires. MPG The 2025 Kia Sportage brings a little bit of peace of mind with this year’s model compared to previous models. This 2025 model offers solid mpg performance on the road. When the X-Pro trim was tested, it received an EPA-estimated 26 mpg combined, making it a practical choice for daily commuting whether in the city, or on more suburban routes. The hybrid options also make a good argument for long-distance travel. Improvements in engine technology and aerodynamics also help this argument. Expect fewer trips to the pump and fewer stops on your adventures in this year’s model. Top Speeds The newest Kia Sportage model reaches speeds of 0-60mph in a commendable 9.5 seconds. As suggested, there have been improvements in this model that will give a little bit more ease to drivers who are used to models past. When you opt for the Hybrid Sportage, moreover, prepare to receive even more peace of mind on the road with more responsive acceleration and a smoother performance. Want even more thrill in your life, try our turbocharged versions. It’s true some are satisfied with living comfortably, others wish to be on the edge of their seats. No matter what your preference, the 2025 Kia Sportage is the SUV for you! Bold Inside and Out The 2025 Sportage exterior isn’t anything to joke about. The vehicle’s designers were completely serious, but also a little bit inspired, when they designed this year’s model. With the sporty, edgy design that the SUV has always featured, this year’s design comes with an even edgier look, and bold colors to match. The interior of the vehicle is equally impressive. Kia levels up the modern touch with the new neon iconography on the touchscreen. With an intuitive layout and user-friendly controls, the car is easy to drive in. Moreover, there is ample room for every passenger in this vehicle, with the exception of those taller than 6 feet. If that is you, we would recommend checking out this SUV in person to see where the overall fit is. Technology This futuristic vehicle includes not one, but two displays for both the instrument cluster and infotainment system. Talk about thinking ahead of our time. Additionally, consider your technology needs met when it comes to driving in the 2025 Kia Sportage. The vehicle comes standard with USB-C and A ports in both rows of the car, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a wireless charging pad. With the touch of the key fob, this vehicle also supports something we think is pretty advanced for its time: self-parking. You can’t think more forward than that! Safety Features Kia did not just think about the colorful exterior and interior of this vehicle when building it. They also had safety in mind. The 2025 Kia Sportage comes standard with a suite of safety features, including automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, and blind-spot monitoring. While they are not absolutely essential, higher trims come with even more features, including adaptive cruise control and a surround-view camera system. Altogether, we think you’ll feel very safe in whatever package you choose. Price of the 2025 Kia Sportage This newest Sportage model comes in at a very reasonable $28,565 making it accessible to many audiences. With more trims, the total package becomes even more attractive. Prices of higher trims can be accounted for by greater luxury and performance.

The 2026 Kia Sportage features a refreshed design with stacked LED headlights, a new flat-edged steering wheel, and standard dual 12.3-inch displays across all trims. The updated hybrid powertrain now delivers 231 horsepower and achieves up to 43 MPG combined, while the plug-in hybrid variant offers 34 miles of electric-only range. The 2026 Kia Sportage price starts around $31,000 and is backed by Kia’s generous warranty. The 2026 Kia Sportage continues its strong position in the compact SUV market with thoughtful updates that enhance both style and substance. As Kia's best-selling vehicle globally and in the United States, the Sportage has evolved significantly since its mid-1990s debut. It’s now entering its fifth generation with refined design elements and advanced technology. This year's refresh focuses on bringing the 2026 Kia Sportage more in line with Kia's current design language while maintaining the spaciousness and value proposition that have made it such a popular choice. 2026 Kia Sportage Overview The 2026 Sportage represents an aesthetic evolution from its predecessor, ditching the controversial boomerang-shaped accent lights and low-mounted headlights for more conventional frontal features. The updated design features a broader grille that gives the vehicle a wider stance and more commanding presence on the road. The new inverted seven-shaped daytime running lights incorporate Kia's signature star map LED lighting treatment with distinctive amber accents. Available in multiple configurations including standard gasoline, hybrid, and plug-in hybrid variants, the 2026 Kia Sportage offers something for every type of driver. The 2026 model maintains the spacious five-passenger layout. Exterior paint choices span a wide palette to suit different tastes. Available colors include Ebony Black, Fusion Black, Gravity Gray, Panthera Metal, Steel Gray, Glacial White Pearl, Snow White Pearl, Wolf Gray, and Nebular Blue. Each color can be paired with specific interior combinations depending on the chosen trim level. Performance Under the hood, the standard 2026 Kia Sportage features a naturally aspirated 2.5-liter inline four-cylinder engine producing 187 horsepower at 6,100 rpm and 178 lb-ft of torque at 4,000 rpm. This engine pairs with an eight-speed automatic transmission, delivering smooth shifts and responsive handling in daily driving situations. For drivers seeking more spirited performance and better fuel efficiency, the 2026 Kia Sportage Hybrid offers a compelling alternative. The hybrid system combines a turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine with a 44-kilowatt electric traction motor positioned between the engine and a six-speed automatic transmission. The plug-in hybrid variant takes things further with 268 horsepower and the ability to travel up to 34 miles on battery power alone, making it ideal for short commutes that can be completed entirely on electricity. When properly equipped, the 2026 Kia Sportage offers a maximum towing capacity of 2,500 pounds, though an aftermarket trailer brake controller is required to achieve this rating. While not class-leading, this capacity is sufficient for small trailers, lightweight boats, or recreational equipment. MPG Fuel efficiency varies across the 2026 Kia Sportage lineup depending on powertrain configuration. The standard gasoline engine with front-wheel drive achieves EPA estimates of 25 mpg city and 32 mpg highway, with a combined rating of approximately 28 mpg. In real-world highway testing, an all-wheel-drive 2026 Kia Sportage X-Pro Prestige returned 31 mpg on a 75-mph fuel economy route. The 2026 Kia Sportage Hybrid delivers significantly better fuel economy, with the most efficient front-wheel-drive configuration earning up to 43 mpg combined. All-wheel-drive hybrid models achieve approximately 35 mpg city, 36 mpg highway, and 35 mpg combined. The plug-in hybrid offers the best of both worlds for drivers with access to home charging. The 34-mile electric range allows many commuters to complete their daily driving entirely on electricity, with the gasoline engine serving as a backup for longer trips. Top Speed In track testing, the non-hybrid 2026 Kia Sportage needed 9.1 seconds to reach 60 mph. Whereas the hybrid accomplished the sprint in just 7.4 seconds, demonstrating the performance advantage of the electrified powertrain. Interior Step inside the 2026 Kia Sportage and you'll immediately notice the attention to detail in the cabin design. The interior represents a significant upgrade in both materials and layout compared to previous generations. The base LX trim features Saturn Black woven cloth seating, while higher trims offer perforated SynTex synthetic leather in various color combinations. The SX trim introduces the option of Perforated and Quilted Carmine Red SynTex seats, adding a sporty, upscale touch to the cabin. The front seats provide excellent comfort with generous bolstering and available 10-way power adjustment for the driver. Heated and ventilated front seats are available on upper trims, along with a heated steering wheel and heated rear seats. One of the key selling points of the 2026 Kia Sportage is its exceptional space utilization. The cabin offers class-leading rear seat legroom, meaning even tall passengers can stretch out comfortably on long drives. Thoughtful interior details include hooks on the back of the front headrests for hanging bags or clothing, configurable cupholders, and ample small-item storage throughout the cabin. There’s also an available panoramic sunroof with power sunshade. Contrast stitching on seats and interior panels, stainless steel pedals, and matte satin door handles add subtle touches of refinement. Technology Technology takes center stage in the 2026 Sportage, with features that were once reserved for luxury vehicles now available across the lineup. The dual 12.3-inch display setup is now standard on all models, providing approximately 24 inches of combined screen real estate. On base trims, the driver gets a 12.3-inch LCD readout with an integrated 4.2-inch TFT instrument cluster display. Higher trims like the SX and SX-Prestige feature a fully curved 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster that seamlessly integrates with the 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system. Safety Features Safety is a priority in the 2026 Sportage, reflected in its 2025 IIHS Top Safety Pick Plus rating for vehicles built after May 2025. This recognition acknowledges the outstanding performance in crash protection and driver assistance systems. Notable update for this year is that Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian, Cyclist, and Junction Turning Detection comes standard across the lineup. Available safety features include: Lane Keeping Assist Lane Following Assist Blind-Spot Collision Warning Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist Safe Exit Assist Smart Cruise Control Highway Driving Assist 2 Blind-Spot View Monitor Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist Surround View Monitor system Remote Parking Assist Price of the 2026 Kia Sportage The 2026 Kia Sportage lineup starts at a competitive price point that undercuts many rivals in the segment. The base LX model with front-wheel drive carries a starting MSRP of $28,690. This represents a modest increase of approximately 1,600 dollars over the previous model year. However, it includes significantly more standard equipment to justify the higher price point. You can expect the price of the 2026 Sportage to be between $28,000-$41,000. 2026 Sportage Price by Trim The base MSRPs for each trim listed below are estimates.

At Lawton Kia, your used car can be an affordable gem with limited miles. While Kia vehicles retain an excellent resale value, the value you'll get out of selling your used Kia will only be as high as the quality of care it received. The better care you take of your car, the more you will get out of it. Here are a few tips on how to get the most out of your cars. Get the Most Out of Your Kia • Take the time to replace your lights. Even if the ones you have installed currently still work, having new ones installed is an inexpensive way to make your used car look better and increase its value. • Have your brakes and tires replaced, what may be a $100-$200 investment will pay off in resale value of your used car. These are things potential buyers pay a lot of attention to and tend to over value. • Windshield damage is another thing that is inexpensive to repair or patch up that buyers notice right away if not done. Look for Kia specials on this service. • Dents and scratches can kill the value of your car if glaring. There are several home remedies to patching up small scratches and dents, but more serious ones might require the help of a specialist, which, once again, is worth the cost. Another thing that can be taken into consideration is whether or not you want to resell your car or trade it in. By bringing your car into a Kia dealership you can receive an estimate on the trade-in value of your vehicle and learn about and Kia specials they may be having. This may give you a better return than selling the vehicle yourself. For more information on any estimates, please contact us at Lawton Kia. Our used cars and new cars for sale include the Kia Telluride, Kia Niro, Kia Soul, Kia Sportage, Kia Sorento, Kia Carnival, Kia EV6, Kia K4, Kia K5, and the Kia Seltos.

Most people love their cars (especially if those cars are Kias), except when they have to fill up the gas tank. In Oklahoma, the prices fluctuate, but the upcoming holidays usually mean higher fuel prices everywhere. To save some cash for Christmas presents, holiday trips or just for frugality's sake, here are car tips to save money. Car Tips To Save Money Below we have compiled a list of car tips to save money at the gas pump this holiday season. 1. Don't wait until you're running on fumes The most practical way to save money is to go to the cheapest gas station in town, but when you wait until you're on E to fill up, you often don't get to be picky about the station you use. Keep an eye on your fuel gauge and save the 20 cents per gallon. They add up quickly. 2. Buy gas on Hump Day Turns out, gas prices love getting over the mid-week hump, too. Prices tend to be cheaper on Wednesday than on any other day of the week. 3. Get your credit card rewards This trick takes much self control. If you sign up for a rewards card that gets you cash back on all purchases or gas specifically, you can really rack up some air miles, rewards points or cash back bonus points. But, the only way to take advantage of a credit card and not allow it to take advantage of you is to pay it off as soon as you use it! Once interest gets tacked on at the end of the month, it practically negates all rewards. So, get your points, but treat it like a bank account. 4. Take care of your Kia Making sure your fuel economy is as good as it can be is a great way to save money on gas. Maintaining tire pressure is generally considered one of the most important factors in getting great gas mileage from your car, truck or SUV. 5. Slow down When you go above 60 your gas mileage dramatically decreases. Consider slowing down on your everyday commutes. These car tips to save money should add a bit more cushion to your wallet even after this holiday season comes and goes. Stop by our Lawton dealership to see our inventory of vehicles.
