The Sportage 2024 comes with a 2.5-liter I-4 engine that delivers 187 horsepower and 178 lb-ft of torque. It’s the kind of power you need, whether in the city or on the road. This powerful engine is paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. Plus, it has standard front-wheel drive (FWD) and the option for all-wheel drive (AWD) for those who enjoy off-road adventures.
Want to know about acceleration? An AWD Sportage X-Pro went from 0 to 60 mph in 9.3 seconds during tests. No joke! And fuel economy? With FWD, the 2024 Sportage achieves 25/33 mpg city/highway. With AWD, it ranges between 23/26-30 mpg. In other words, you can drive a lot without worrying too much about the gas station.
Hybrid Options
Now, check out the hybrid options: the Sportage Hybrid has a turbocharged engine of 1.6 liters I-4 and an electric motor. Together, they provide 227 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque. This reduces the acceleration from 0 to 60 mph to 7.2 seconds. And fuel economy? It jumps to about 38-42/38-44 mpg city/highway.
And there’s more: the Sportage Plug-In Hybrid (PHEV) takes everything to another level. With a more powerful engine and a larger battery, the output goes up to 261 hp. Acceleration from 0 to 60 mph drops to 7.1 seconds, and it offers about 34 miles of all-electric range.
