FRANCOFORTE (GERMANY) (ITALPRESS) – Kia expands the Sportage range with the introduction of Black Edition, a new staging that focuses on the importance of design, combined with Full-Hybrid motorization. The new special edition stands out for its distinctive design while maintaining a high level of equipment. Black Edition expands the range of proposals within the Kia compact SUV segment, combining unique stylistic presence with accessible electrification. Sportage Black Edition is characterized by a series of exterior details in glossy black, such as grid, profiles, mirror caps, roof bars, side bumpers, belt line, lower bumper profile and bumper slip. Further unpublished stylistic details concern the new black Kia logo, the black Sportage emblem, the insert of the grill of the radiator in dark metal. 19 inch alloy wheels are available, with glossy black finish and matt black embossed wheel. The darkened glasses and the optional configuration with two-tone black roof, combined with the openable and adjustable roof, give an additional contrasting appeal, especially in combination with the external Wolf Grey color. All exterior colors are available with contrasting black two-tone roof and adjustable panoramic roof. The Sportage Black Edition cabin is characterized by a double 12.3 inch panoramic display, the black roof inner lining and the dedicated black seats in Kia tex Delight, a combination of artificial leather and suede. Sportage Black Edition will be proposed at the launch with Full-Hybrid electrified motor that combines a 180 hp 1.6-litre T-GDI petrol engine with an electric motor, for a total power of 239 hp combined with a six-speed automatic transmission. The range of motorizations will follow further innovations for the Italian market. “Kia Sportage has constantly evolved to reflect technological progress and changing customer expectations,” said Pablo Martinez Masip, Vice President Product, Brand and Customer Experience of Kia Europe. “With Black Edition, we join a design outside the electrified drive schemes, strengthening Kia’s commitment to offering distinctive products in one of Europe’s most competitive segments while supporting the transition to more sustainable mobility.”.
