It is paired with six-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and front-wheel drive (FWD.) An optional plug-in-hybrid powertrain packs a more powerful punch, at 180 horsepower, and it’s good for about 33 miles of range. Kia states that with a Level 2 charger, the battery can be fully recharged in about three hours.

Interiors and Tech

The automaker used recycled materials and natural fibers in all its interiors, including the SX Touring. While passenger space is tight (remember, it’s a small SUV), it’s still comfortable enough for four adults, and if you need to do a grocery run, you’ll have cargo space to spare.

Ambient interior lighting lends a luxurious touch to the SX Touring, and its infotainment touchscreen is sizable 10.3-inches. All trims feature Kia’s UVO infotainment system, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. In-dash navigation and SiriusXM satellite radio are also available and a seven-speaker Harman/Kardon stereo system is standard to the SX Touring trim.
