The 2026 Kia Sportage Hybrid stands at the forefront of design, innovation, and versatility, reaffirming why it remains Kia’s longest-running and best-selling nameplate. With its bold redesign and advanced hybrid powertrain, the Sportage sets a new benchmark in the compact SUV segment.

As the latest evolution of Kia’s fifth-generation Sportage, the 2026 model introduces the most significant upgrades in years. Available in three distinct powertrains — ICE, Turbo Hybrid (HEV), and Turbo Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV) — it offers drivers the freedom to choose the perfect balance of power, efficiency, and sustainability.

The Sportage Hybrid, in particular, delivers dynamic performance with its turbocharged hybrid engine, providing both exhilarating acceleration and impressive fuel efficiency. Inside, a tech-forward cabin includes advanced driver-assistance features, segment-leading cargo space, and generous rear-seat legroom — making it the ideal SUV for every stage of life, from solo adventures to family road trips.

Beyond performance and practicality, the 2026 Kia Sportage Hybrid embraces cutting-edge convenience and safety. From enhanced digital displays and intuitive infotainment to premium trims like the rugged X-Line and luxurious X-Pro Prestige, the Sportage continues to set itself apart from competitors.

As Kia’s best-selling model, the Sportage has earned its reputation by adapting to the needs of diverse drivers. The 2026 Hybrid edition not only keeps that legacy alive but elevates it, delivering more power, more innovation, and more reasons to drive the best-selling compact SUV on the market.

BYD has started selling the Yangwang super sedan: 1,300 horsepower and a unique chassis. In China, at the Guangzhou Auto Show, they opened the acceptance of applications for the Yangwang U7, the third model in the luxury brand's lineup. BYD showed the interior of the four-door car and shared additional information about the technology. It is curious that pre-orders for the Yangwang U7 are accepted with a deposit of 20,000 yuan (2.8 thousand dollars), but there is no price list or start date for deliveries yet.

The appearance and main characteristics of the Yangwang U7 were revealed in February, but deliveries of the sedan were delayed. The 5.3-meter-long car has an outstanding aerodynamic drag coefficient (Cx = 0.195), a four-motor e4 power plant and giant lithium-iron-phosphate batteries with a capacity of 135.5 kilowatt-hours. It is not surprising that the electric car weighs 3.1 tons!

The electric version has a range of 720 kilometers (CLTC), 0-100 acceleration takes 2.9 seconds, and braking from 100 km / h to a complete stop occurs in 33 meters. The pride of the car is the all-wheel steering chassis with a 20-degree rear axle rotation and variable-ratio steering: the turning radius is only 4.85 meters! The super sedan also features a DiSus-Z suspension with electric shock absorbers instead of hydraulic ones. The chassis adjustment occurs in just 0.01 seconds.

Chinese journalists believe that the electric Yangwang U7 will cost at least one million yuan (138 thousand dollars). A hybrid with a smaller battery (52.4 kilowatt-hours), a different body kit, a range of up to 1000 kilometers and an as yet unknown power plant is also expected.

Autonomous vehicles are becoming more and more popular, but at some point safety is in question.

A video circulating on the Chinese social network Weibo shows a driver taking a break while an unmanned Zeekr drives him along the highway on autopilot.

To fool the security system, the steering wheel is blocked with a bottle simulating the presence of hands. That way, however, if there's an event that Autopilot can't determine, the car can simply cause an accident.
