Close 2026 Kia Sportage Hybrid SX Prestige Overview near Ames, IA
Those who are in the market for a compact hybrid vehicle have certainly come across options from the Kia lineup. We’re going to narrow our focus here and show you what the 2026 Kia Sportage Hybrid SX Prestige trim level provides to its owners. If you would like to see other facets of this high-end version of the vehicle, we at Kia of Des Moines will be glad to help!
Engineering
This version of the widely recognized SUV utilizes the same powertrain as the rest of the lineup, starting with its 1.6L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine linked to a full parallel hybrid system. Together, it produces 232 horsepower and 271 lb.-ft. of torque, which is enough to give drivers a 2,000-lb. maximum towing capacity1. Unlike the base trim level of this model, the 2026 Sportage Hybrid SX Prestige includes an AWD2 drivetrain format. As such, you can count on higher levels of capability as you ride through Ames with the available Snow, Sand, and Mud options in the Terrain Mode. You should also consider the EPA-estimated 35/36/35 MPG city/hwy/combined3 fuel efficiency rating you get with this robust model, a level of economy that can help you reach far-off destinations without stopping as often.
Interior
You’ll be proud to take friends and family on your excursions to the Southeast Recreation Complex inside the stylish cabin of the 2026 Kia Sportage Hybrid SX Prestige. When buying this car, you’ll have premium SynTex trim on all seating positions, and it comes in either Carmine Red, Black and Misty Gray, or Black to suit your preferences. The leather-wrapped steering wheel adds to the feeling of opulence in the cabin. Your need for comfort is also supported by this SUV with its 10-way power-adjustable driver’s seat and 8-way power-adjustable front passenger’s chair. Both the front and second-row outboard seats are heated4 for your winter travels. You’ll also have the benefit of spaciousness from the dual-level cargo floor and the maximum of 73.7 cubic ft. of storage space5 in the SUV with the second row stowed away.
Technology
One of the many upgrades to the technological capabilities of this vehicle is found in the 12.3-inch touchscreen display with navigation6 that is set to help you find the best way to reach your destinations in central Iowa. You can also use that screen to activate the musical capabilities of the vehicle, which will be amplified through the cabin via the high-quality 8-speaker Harman Kardon®7 Premium Surround Sound system. If you’re interested in seeing your current rate of travel and other data without looking away from the street, activate the Head-Up Display8. Don’t forget that you also get the benefit of over-the-air system updates9 that help ensure the Kia Sportage Hybrid SX Prestige has the latest information. We still have to review the exterior and safety features with you, so come meet our team and discover more facets of this SUV!

Testimonials
“ We bought a 2027 Kia Telluride from Antonio and enjoyed the experience all the way through. He was very friendly and easy to deal with. They also did a nice job of walking us through the features of the vehicle. Everything was done and ready in a timely manner which was much appreciated! Thank you Kia of Des Moines. ”
“ Great experience. Zak was very informative and helpful. ”
“ Best car buying experience by far. Everyone was so helpful and made it super simple and fun! ”
“ Customer service was excellent. Shout out to, Gus! The gal in the service department was also excellent at explaining all the features to us as well! Overall great experience! ”
“ The salesman was very kind and courteous! He showed all options on the car. Gave us a good deal! ”
“ Had a great experience. They treated me with great professionalism and deliver of the car was in a timely matter. ”
“ We had a great experience getting into a lease with Kia of Des Moines. We were in and out quickly, had our paperwork done promptly, and everything explained to us. More importantly we got into a payment we could afford that was better than the competition. We considered Toyota and Ford. Toyota has struggled with inventory that fit our needs, and Ford has stopped producing Sedans. Regardless, we are pleased with Kia. ”
“ I recently purchased a 2027 Kia Telluride Hybrid from Kia of Des Moines. I test drove the vehicle and obtained a quote for my current vehicle trade-in and within an hour we made a deal. It was a smooth process and there was no pressure from the salesman Jeff Davis. I didn't have a check or my current vehicle title with me, so they allowed me to make a wire transfer from my bank and I drove my new vehicle home that day. I returned the following day with the title for my old vehicle. It was a great experience not only with the sales staff, but also with Jim Voss in finance and with Jacob Kline in delivery who set up my new vehicle. I appreciated the fact that no one pushed an extended warranty program which a lot of dealers do these days. Kia already has an awesome warranty program. ”
“ Great place to buy a car. From start to finish, the KIA team provides excellent service! ”
“ Very professional and friendly service ”
“ We recently bought a new Telluride from them, and we enjoyed the experience. It was our first time buying a new car and they were very patient with us and weren't pushy at all. They didn't try any tricks with us and are very satisfied. We enjoyed our process working with them. ”
“ We came in and looked at a few cars, we were very happy with are sales rep and also the financial department. The gal that went over our new car and showed us stuff was great as well. This is our 3rd kia and we love it each time. Thank you again for the great service. ”
“ JR was very helpful in helping me make the right decisions!! I love my new car! ”
“ Best car purchase experience ever!!!! Joe made the process very easy and stress free. ”
“ Fantastic experience. Knowledgeable and quick. ”
“ Had a great experience at Kia of Des Moines buying my 2026 K4 GT-Line Premium. My salesman JR was good, honest, and patient through the whole process. He worked hard to get me the right car at the right price and rate, and treated me with respect. It was month-end and the dealership was really busy, so we didn’t get to take the traditional photo with the flower on top of the car. But that’s all good and totally understandable. Before we left, one of the managers came over, shook my hand, and thanked us for our business. That kind of personal touch meant a lot, especially on such a hectic day. JR and the whole team at Kia of Des Moines were professional from start to finish. If you’re in Des Moines looking for a Kia, ask for JR. Highly recommend! ”
“ I purchased a new Kia K5 GT Line from Kia of Des Moines after my daughter’s 2023 Kia K5 was rear ended by an uninsured motorist. I’ve purchased many vehicles in my lifetime and I have to say this was the easiest and unpressured car buying experience I’ve ever had. Thank You to Kia of Des Moines staff and or salesman JR. Best Always, Jeff ”
“ Excellent attention from the Kia staff and I recommend Bob Mercer's attention; he will take care of you very well ”
“ Excellent attention from the Kia staff and I recommend Bob Mercer's attention; he will take care of you very well ”
“ I had one of the best experiences at Kia. Zack was so helpful and attentive. He listened to what I was looking for and showed me every option that I had available to me. I have never had a car salesman work as hard as he did. He provided top notch customer service. But it didn’t end there. Signing the financial paperwork was quick and seamless. Also, the tutorial that I received at the end of the purchase was also a very pleasant experience. I highly recommend Kia of Des Moines if anyone is looking for a great vehicle and even better customer service. ”
“ Quick and easy. Fast quality service. Felt everything was transparent and helpful. ”
“ The salesman and other staff were attentive and worked with my wife and I to get not one, but two new vehicles at a price we could afford! The salesman went the extra mile literally as he had to pull several vehicles to look at until we found the one that had everything we were looking for. Definitely recommend Kia of Des Moines. ”
“ Great experience, in and out in 30 minutes! ”
“ Zack was very good to work with in on the sales team as was the finance lady! They weren’t pushy at all and gave me my time to figure out what I wanted. And Jacob was amazing at going over all the features of my new car with me so I understood them. ”
“ Thank you for everything very good service and very friendly everyone. ”
“ Great experience, great staff ”
“ Bob was really nice to work with and we love our KIA ”
“ Just picked up our new KIA Hybrid Telluride. The process was so slick. Everyone was so pleasant to work with. The staff is amazing. Jacob explained everything on how the car worked. Gus was a top notch salesman!! ”
“ Staff was courteous, ready to answer all questions, made it any easy process! ”
“ Very friendly staff! The whole transaction was smooth and went quickly. ”
“ We had a very good experience buying our new car at Kia of Des Moines. Their salesperson Gus was very pleasant, helpful and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend him to help you. We received a great discounted price on a service loaner with only 1800 miles, but with the full warranty which they extend to 200,000 miles, like any of their new cars. And it was SO nice to pick up the car and be in and out in less than an hour! We definitely recommend Kia of Des Moines to buy a new car! Be sure to tell Gus that Bob sent you! ”
“ Great customer service and answered all of my questions! Amazing experience! ”

“ We just purchased a new 2027 Telluride hybrid SX procedure we ordered it from Jeff. It came in two weeks before he said it would which was nice. We went through the process of paying for it and then They showed us everything we needed to know on to have very thoroughly. It’s a good place to do business. I’m saying this with some experience I bought over 40 new cars in my lifetime and this is one of the better processes. ”
