Powertrain - Kia Sportage specs near Charlotte NC
There are two engines available for the 2021 Kia Sportage near Charlotte. The base engine is a 2.4-liter i4 that delivers 181 horsepower and 175 pound-feet of torque. This is the engine that you will find standard on the base LX as well as the S and EX trims. If you want to move up to the more powerful engine, then you will have to consider the SX Turbo. The SX Turbo is the sportiest version of the Kia Sportage, and it comes with a turbo 2.0-liter i4 that doles out an impressive 240 hp and 260 lb.-ft. In all cases, the Sportage features the same transmission, which is a six-speed auto with a shifting option. Just as with the lower trims, the SX Turbo is available as an all-wheel-drive vehicle. However, that choice does diminish the power output by about three horsepower.
