RRP before on-road costs, as published by the manufacturer.

Overview

The 2026 Kia Sportage S FWD Petrol is a five-seat SUV with a petrol engine, an automatic gearbox and front-wheel drive, making 115kW and 192Nm. It's priced from $38,490 RRP, which is the recommended retail price before on-road costs like rego and stamp duty. Fuel use is rated at 8.1L/100km combined, the boot holds 543 litres with the seats up and 1,829 litres with the rear seats folded, and it can tow 1,650kg braked. It's front-wheel drive only, so it's not the pick if you need all-wheel drive for gravel or snow trips. It suits families and commuters after a roomy, practical SUV that can handle a small trailer.

Child seats and anchors

2+35 seats· 2 ISOFIX · 3 tether

ISOFIX Top-tether Both None

ISOFIX lower anchors clip a compatible child seat straight to the car's frame, the quickest, most mistake-proof fit.

Top-tether straps stop a forward-facing seat pitching in a crash. Australian law requires a tether on every forward-facing child seat, so rear seats almost always have them.

Most 5-seat cars carry 2 ISOFIX on the outer 2nd-row seats plus tethers across the row; some 7-seaters add anchors in the third row.

The 2026 Kia Sportage S FWD Petrol is a five-seat SUV with a petrol engine, an automatic gearbox and front-wheel drive, making 115kW and 192Nm. It's priced from $38,490 RRP, which is the recommended retail price before on-road costs like rego and stamp duty.

It's front-wheel drive only, so it's not the pick if you need all-wheel drive for gravel or snow trips. It suits families and commuters after a roomy, practical SUV that can handle a small trailer.

Its standout strength is the claimed 6.3L/100km fuel consumption-exceptional value for a diesel AWD-plus Kia's comprehensive 7-year warranty provides genuine peace of mind.

One thing to consider: the front-wheel-drive configuration may limit its appeal if you regularly tackle challenging terrain, though its five-star ANCAP rating (tested 2022) and seven-year warranty provide solid peace of mind for daily driving.

One thing to consider is that despite its 5-star ANCAP safety rating (tested 2022) and comprehensive 7-year warranty, the relatively modest 543-litre boot space means you'll need to plan carefully for larger loads compared to larger SUV competitors.

ANCAP
5-star (2022)

The 2027 Kia Sportage GT-Line HEV AWD is a compact hybrid SUV suited to Australian families wanting fuel efficiency without sacrificing practicality, offering genuine all-wheel-drive capability and a spacious 586-litre boot. Its standout strength is the combination of a frugal 1.6-litre hybrid powertrain delivering 5.3L/100km fuel consumption with a 173kW/367Nm combined system output, plus Kia's impressive 7-year warranty and 5-star ANCAP safety rating (tested 2022). One consideration is that at 1793kg, it's at the heavier end for the segment, which may slightly impact performance and handling compared to lighter non-hybrid competitors, though the 1900kg towing capacity remains practical for caravans.
