It arrives in our showrooms in a few weeks, and the specification and prices for the all-new Kia Sportage car lease range have been revealed.

The new model will offer the largest range of powertrains than it has had before with drivers able to choose from diesel, petrol, hybrid and mild-hybrid vehicles.

Kia is also promising that a plug-in hybrid will appear in the Spring, while all other powertrains are available from launch.

The Sportage also delivers a new design identity and helps to bring on-road presence.

Powertrain choices for the contract hire Kia Sportage include a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV), for the first time which uses a 1.6-litre petrol engine to develop 226 bhp.

The plug-in hybrid will offer 261 bhp and the diesel and petrol engines are also available with or without the firm’s 48-volt mild hybrid system.
