The cost of gasoline in the United States remains a constant concern for millions of families, especially for the Hispanic community that uses the car as a daily tool for work and transportation. Faced with this reality, Kia’s hybrid and electric cars have established themselves in 2025 as one of the most affordable, reliable and best performing options on the market.
With an ever-expanding offer, Kia has become a leader among brands offering fuel-efficient vehicles with long-lasting warranties. Below, we review the brand’s most prominent hybrid and electric models in 2025.
Niro Hybrid (HEV)
The Kia Niro HEV is one of the best-selling models in its class.
It offers combined mileage of up to 53 miles per gallon (mpg), making it an ideal alternative for those looking for a small, economical SUV.
It is low maintenance and the interior space is sufficient for small families.
Niro Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV)
The plug-in version of the Niro combines gasoline and electric motors, allowing it to travel about 33 miles on electricity alone before using fuel.
This model is attractive for those who make short daily commutes, as it can be charged at home and minimize gasoline costs.
Sportage Hybrid
The Sportage, one of the brand’s most popular SUVs, has a hybrid version that achieves a combined performance close to 44 mpg.
This model offers more space than the Niro and is perfect for Hispanic families who need more comfort and cargo capacity without sacrificing economy.
Sorento Hybrid and Plug-in Hybrid
The Sorento, with room for seven passengers, is one of the few three-row SUVs with hybrid and PHEV versions.
Its hybrid model offers about 37 mpg combined, while the plug-in version allows up to 32 miles in electric mode.
It is a great option for large families looking for efficiency on long trips.
EV6 (Electric)
The EV6 is Kia’s flagship electric model in the U.S. With a range that can exceed 310 miles per charge, this crossover combines futuristic design with high-level performance.
Thanks to its ultra-fast charging (10% to 80% in less than 20 minutes with high-speed chargers), it has become a benchmark for those looking to make the ultimate leap to electric.
EV9 (Electric)
In 2025, the EV9 is positioned as Kia’s family electric SUV.
With seating for up to seven passengers and an estimated range of 300 miles per charge, this model offers luxury, space and advanced technology.
Although its starting price is higher, it is designed to compete with premium brands while maintaining Kia’s extended warranty.

In addition to gas savings, several of these models qualify for U.S. federal and state incentives, which can reduce the final price by as much as $7,500.
This makes Kia one of the most attractive brands for the Hispanic community seeking efficiency and savings in a market increasingly focused on electrification.
Analyze your daily commute: if you drive short distances, a plug-in hybrid can save you a lot on gas.
Find out about local incentives: some states offer additional benefits, such as discounts on tolls or access to HOV lanes.
Compare charging costs: charging an electric Kia at home can cost much less than filling up with gas, especially if you take advantage of nightly rates.
Keep the warranty: Kia offers one of the longest warranties on the market (10 years/100,000 miles on battery and powertrain).
In 2025, the Kia brand consolidates its position as a key brand for those seeking more efficient and economical cars.
For the U.S. Hispanic community, these models represent a real opportunity to save on gas, access incentives and contribute to environmental stewardship without losing comfort or confidence.
