Which Kia Sportage trim should I buy?

The 2026 Kia Sportage offers these trims:

• LX: The entry trim uses the 2.5-litre four-cylinder with a six-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive, and it gives you the standard 12.3-inch touchscreen plus wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It suits you if you want the lowest-priced path into the current Sportage.
• LX AWD: This adds all-wheel drive to the LX formula, making it the value pick if you want the base equipment with extra traction.
• X-Line: This trim adds all-wheel drive, off-road appearance touches, different front and rear bumpers, tread-like SynTex stitching, and all-season tires on 19-inch wheels.
• EX: This trim adds more equipment and sits above the X-Line in the line-up, making it a sensible step if you want a better-balanced mix of comfort and features.
• EX Premium: This trim adds 19-inch wheels, and it is the best-value choice if you want a richer feature set without moving to the top trim.
• X-Line Limited: This trim adds the 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, a Harman Kardon premium audio system, a head-up display, and digital key functionality.
