It could be due to dirty fuel injectors or a faulty fuel pump. I would suggest getting a fuel system cleaning and checking the fuel pump's pressure to rule out these possibilities.

Another possibility could be a faulty spark plug or ignition coil. Have those components checked and replaced if necessary.

Sometimes, a clogged air filter can also cause the engine to miss. Check and replace the air filter if necessary.
