2026 Kia Sportage price and specs: More tech, more hybrids, higher prices
Pricing and specifications for the facelifted 2026 Kia Sportage have been announced for Australia as first vehicles arrive in showrooms, and the upgraded mid-size SUV lineup brings more more hybrid variants, more standard equipment, and the introduction of Kia Connect services, accompanied by price increases of up to $4070. As before, the Sportage will be offered in S, SX, SX+ and GT-Line trim levels, with no less than five different drivetrain variants available. The six-speed manual is dead, and 1.6T AWD variants swap out their dual-clutch automatic transmission for an eight-speed torque converter unit. Further, hybrid (HEV) versions of the SX and GT-Line are now available in both front-wheel drive (FWD) and all-wheel drive (AWD) form, taking the total number of hybrid options to four. Revised design details, new alloy wheel options and increased tech levels round out the highlights. Hundreds of new car deals are available through CarExpert right now. Get the experts on your side and score a great deal. Browse now . Pricing for the MY26 Kia Sportage starts from $37,990 before on-road costs, which is $5000 higher than the old base manual and $3000 more than the outgoing entry-level S automatic. These price rises are somewhat offset by enhanced specification levels, as detailed further down. Prices are up across the board, by at least $500 and an average of around $3000 depending on the model variant. Kia has confirmed a four-strong engine lineup and changes like a new eight-speed auto for the 1.6T and the availability of AWD for the 1.6T Hybrid (HEV), though further details like outputs (if changed) and fuel consumption are still to be confirmed. *Figures quoted are for pre-facelift vehicles Kia Australia hasn't confirmed any changes to the Sportage's dimensions – see below for pre-facelift figures. The updated Kia Sportage, like the Korean brand's other models, will be covered by a seven-year, unlimited-kilometre new vehicle warranty. Hybrid vehicles are also subject to a seven-year/150,000km high-voltage battery and component warranty. Kia Australia offers seven years of capped-price servicing across its lineup, though finer details around intervals and pricing for the updated Sportage range are still to be confirmed. For reference, the 2.0L petrol and turbo-diesel models in the pre-facelifted range have 12-month/15,000km intervals, while the turbocharged 1.6L petrol and HEV versions have shorter 10,000km distance intervals. The updated Kia Sportage is expected to retain its five-star ANCAP safety rating, based on 2022 Euro NCAP tests. While there have been some feature upgrades – such as a more advanced semi-autonomous Highway Driving Assist (HDA) system from SX+ level and up – the fundamentals appear to be the largely same.

2026 Kia Carnival price and specs
The Kia Carnival lineup has been expanded, with its hybrid powertrain now available in two additional model grades. This gives the Carnival Hybrid range a base price more than $20,000 lower than before. There are still five trim levels starting with the Carnival S, Sport, Sport+, GT-Line Lite, and highest-spec GT-Line all subject to a $420 price rise for model year 2026 (MY26). Otherwise, the Carnival is unchanged for MY26. Hundreds of new car deals are available through CarExpert right now. Get the experts on your side and score a great deal. Browse now. The petrol and diesel engines are available across all five grades, while the hybrid powertrain – previously offered only as a GT-Line – is now also available in S and Sport+ grades. The Carnival is Australia's best-selling people mover by a huge margin, and features eight seats across three rows. The second row is 'reversible' – meaning it can face rearwards – and has slide and recline functions. It also has a sliding 'Walk-in' feature enabling easier access to the third row's 60/40-split seat. Every Carnival has five top-tether and five ISOFIX seat-mounting points. There are USB chargers for the first two rows, air-conditioning vents for all three rows, and nine cupholders across the interior. All prices exclude on-road costs. Across the five grades, the Carnival is offered in a choice of petrol, petrol hybrid and diesel-powered versions – with the hybrid previously exclusive to the flagship GT-Line now also offered in the S and S+ grades. All Kia Carnivals have a seven-year, unlimited kilometre warranty with seven years of capped-price servicing and up to eight years of roadside assistance. Servicing is required every 12 months or 15,000km on petrol and diesel Carnival, with servicing for hybrid versions every 12 months or 10,000km. The hybrid model has a seven-year, 150,000km warranty for defects in its high-voltage system, including the battery. The Kia Carnival has a five-star ANCAP rating based on testing conducted in 2021, and features driver and front passenger airbags, a driver's knee airbag, front-row side airbags, as well as curtain airbags covering the first, second and third rows. Kia Connect telematics – which includes a smartphone app to check items such as fuel level and remote door locking – is standard, with an 'eCall' button to summon emergency services.
