2027 Kia Sportage for Sale in Conway, AR

The 2027 Kia Sportage in Conway, AR gives drivers the passenger room and cargo flexibility of an SUV without moving into an oversized vehicle. Its gas powertrain delivers 187 horsepower, while front-wheel drive and available all-wheel drive provide different approaches to everyday driving. Add six gas trims, a standard 12.3-inch touchscreen, generous second-row space, and available premium technology, and the Sportage offers plenty of ways to build a compact SUV around your priorities.

What’s New for 2027?

The Sportage received a significant refresh for the 2026 model year. The supplied research does not identify another major redesign for 2027, so shoppers can expect the recently updated styling and technology direction to continue.

The gas lineup consists of six trims: LX, EX, SX, X-Line, SX Prestige, and X-Pro Prestige. That range allows the Sportage to cover everything from practical everyday transportation to premium comfort and more rugged AWD-focused equipment.

2027 Sportage Highlights:

• Five-passenger compact SUV

• 187-horsepower 2.5-liter four-cylinder

• Up to an EPA-estimated 28 MPG combined on select configurations

Every gas Sportage starts with the same formula: a 2.5-liter four-cylinder producing 187 horsepower and 178 lb-ft of torque through an eight-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is available across much of the lineup, while AWD gives drivers another option when added traction is a priority.

For a more capability-focused setup, the X-Line combines AWD with Terrain Mode. The X-Pro Prestige builds on that approach with 17-inch wheels wrapped in all-terrain tires.

Upper trims introduce additional technology. Highway Driving Assist is included on the SX, while the SX Prestige adds blind-spot and 360-degree surround-view monitoring plus front, rear, and side parking sensors.

Move into higher trims and the cabin becomes even more digital. The SX includes dual 12.3-inch panoramic displays with navigation and a Harman Kardon premium audio system. Wireless phone charging and over-the-air software capabilities are also available.

Compact on the outside doesn't mean cramped inside, and the Sportage makes that clear with generous legroom in both rows. The supplied specifications list 41.4 inches of front legroom and 41.3 inches in the second row.

Cargo space is equally useful. The Sportage provides 39.6 cubic feet behind the rear seats according to the supplied specifications. Folding the 60/40-split rear seat expands capacity to 74.1 cubic feet.

Prefer an Electrified Sportage?

Drivers who like the Sportage package but want an electrified powertrain can also consider the separate Sportage Hybrid and Sportage Plug-in Hybrid.

The Sportage Hybrid combines gasoline and electric propulsion without requiring routine plug-in charging. The Plug-in Hybrid adds a larger battery designed to allow part of a trip to be completed using electric power.

Because these models have their own powertrains, efficiency figures, trims, and features, we'll cover those details separately on dedicated Sportage Hybrid and Sportage Plug-in Hybrid landing pages.

Protection Beyond the Drive

Kia warranty coverage gives new Sportage owners additional long-term protection. Coverage includes a 5-year/60,000-mile limited basic warranty and 10-year/100,000-mile limited powertrain warranty, subject to Kia's applicable terms and limitations.

Drivers can review additional details on the Kia warranty coverage page.
