Does Kia have a hybrid SUV?
I’m in the market for a hybrid SUV, and I noticed that the Kia Soul is not available in a hybrid model. Are there any hybrid Kia SUVs?

Yes! A leader in hybrid vehicle production, Kia has six hybrid SUVs in its vehicle line-up. Here’s a list of all the hybrid SUVs available from Kia:
- Kia NiroHybrid
- Kia Niro Plug-in Hybrid
- Kia SportageHybrid
- Kia Sportage Plug-in Hybrid
- Kia SorentoHybrid
- Kia Sorento Plug-in Hybrid
Traditional hybrids differ from plug-in hybrids in a couple of ways. First, plug-in hybrids get their energy from an external source like a charging station, whereas traditional hybrid batteries recharge using energy captured when the vehicle brakes.
Secondly, the battery is the primary source of power on plug-in hybrids, using the combustion engine as a backup power source when the battery runs low. Traditional hybrids, on the other hand, rely more heavily on a combustion engine, with the battery providing power at slower speeds.
Hybrid vehicles tend to be more expensive to insure due to all the extra materials and components like batteries and electric motors. You can save money on your
