Our Verdict
This is a solid prospect for a buyer see
When negotiating, use the April 2026 MOT failure as a lever; the vehicle requires two new front tyres to meet legal standards. Ensure you verify that these have been replaced before completion of the sale.
Given this is a hybrid model, check that the hybrid system has been serviced according to KIA's specific requirements to maintain any manufacturer warranties. Ask for evidence of any software updates related to the HEV system, as these are common for newer hybrid models.
As a 1.6L hybrid, this Sportage is designed for efficiency, likely sitting in a moderate insurance group and offering competitive fuel economy for a vehicle of its size. Tax bands for recent hybrid models are often lower than their pure petrol counterparts.
Typical maintenance costs for this model will involve standard servicing, though you should budget for tyre replacements more frequently if driven in urban environments. Estimated annual running costs are moderate, reflecting its hybrid nature.
The primary concern highlighted by the 2026 MOT is the condition of the front tyres, specifically noting they were worn on the edges and close to the legal limit. Inspect the front suspension and wheel alignment to ensure the uneven wear isn't a symptom of tracking issues.
Beyond the tyres, check the operation of the headlamps and windscreen wipers, as these are the most common failure points for this model across the aggregate data of 1,435 vehicles. Finally, confirm the hybrid battery's state of charge and seamless transition between electric and petrol modes during a test drive.
Registered in September 2022, this Green KIA Sportage 4 ISG HEV Auto has covered 26,179 miles in four years. This is slightly above the model aggregate average of 7,599 miles per year, but the MOT history shows only one recorded failure related to tyre wear in April 2026. The 2025 MOT was completed with no defects recorded, suggesting a period of consistent compliance.
The KIA Sportage shows a strong aggregate MOT pass rate of 92.7% across the 1,435 vehicles analysed.
