"Love my Sorento. Great family car. Love that it has 3 rows of seats. Gets great gas miles. You get all the bells and whistles for a low price."

"Its been very comfortable and user friendly -- love it! People, please stop bashing the MPG numbers with this vehicle. Our Sorento vehicle gets the MPG figures, as advertised. I bet there is a direct corrolation between those who get "poor" MPG and bad driving habits ("jack-rabbit" acceleration, braking too hard, using AC or heat too much, and yes, texting while driving, etc). I also own a Kia Optima SX Turbo and I average 30-32 MPG per tank...let me repeat that - over 30 MPG with a Turbo! If you improve your driving habits, then your "real world" MPG numbers will go up considerably. Otherwise, the vehicle is fine so far...a great value for the money."

"I've been behind the wheel of my new 2012 Kia Sorento SX with the 6 cyl engine for about a month now. So far I'm very pleased. The car handles great and has all of the bells and whistles for a VERY reasonable price. I'm sure Lexus people will be offended, but the SX is basically an RX 350 at a fraction of the cost. The heated seats work much better than my old Honda Pilot and this Kia is much more fun to drive. I sacrificed a little on size, but that's not a big deal unless you have a large family or go traveling with a ton of stuff. My kids are all under 10 years old and it fits us just fine. On the down side, the gas mileage so far hasn't been what I hoped for. Reports say you get 20 city and and 26 highway, but my experience so far has been about 18.5 and 24. Not that big of a deal I guess, but MPG was my #1 reason for making the switch. Only other downside so far is that there is no place for spare change, but now I'm just nitpicking... Great car, great price."

"I bought this car with 20,000 on it. It was in mint condition. Each day I drive it I am blown away by all the extras this car has in it. So luxurious and high quality. It is beautiful inside and.png. The other day I dropped my cell phone and when I went down to pick it up, I realized the car has a.heated steering wheel! It is just amazing. The only con I would say is that when I pull off quickly or in rainy conditions the wheels spin loosing traction. Have no idea why, but I am learning to drive differently.."

"Having owned a 2011 Hyundai Sonota for a year, I looked at Hyundai/Kia for a replacement for another car. Hyundai dealers did not have a Santa Fe with the equipment I was looking for, but Kia did. What a great choice. It has everything you could possibly want, and has been reliable and trouble free for 10 months. I would recommend anyone to look at a Hyundai or Kia for their next vehicle. Oh, and they both have a fantastic warranty!!"

"I have a Kia Sorento LX - Conv Pkg + 3rd Row car and been driving it for a month with 1000 Miles on it. My driving style is very gentle (never more than 3K RPM), Eco Green is ON all the time. Been on a 250 mile Long drive and got around 23. inside the City i drive on roads with just 2/3 signals and rest all are parkways...still i get an avg of 20MPG...!!! Very very bad...i got this car for claiming good fuel economy and it wont do that...!! Great warranty..but they also had at least 2 recalls in last 2 years. In these times fuel economy matters... else i would not mind spending more to get a Highlander..which also gives me same mileage. Infotainment is great..looks great...But bad mileage...If it doesn't improve..I'm going to put a sticker on car back reading " DON'T EVER BUY A KIA...IT'S BAD""

"I like the styling, inside and out. Expensive looking interior. Our model is loaded with lots of great features. Nice stable ride on the highway. The only thing we don't like is the suspension on side streets. Handles small bumps terrible when driving slow. Very rough ride. Kia needs to fix this."
