Great Warranty!

I really like this vehicle. It has everything I wanted in it plus a few unexpected extras. Good gas mileage; smooth ride; not completely quiet but better than most SUV's; roomy cargo area; roomy area under the cargo area for cleaning supplies, jumper cables, etc.; love the heated front seats; full roof racks and remote starter definite bonuses!

New owner to Kia - Son has had four

Best vehicle for the money! Made lots of comparisons and in nearly every category I checked, Kia Sorento came out on top. A great purchase. Very satisfied.

Kia Sorento is my blessing.

This is my first 4 cylinder vehicle. I was mistaken about the lack of power I thought it would have. It drives great and has plenty of passing power. The gas saving is a major plus for me also

Great alternative to a van!

We were looking for a vehicle with a 3rd row and this one was an excellent choice for our family. We love how it rides and it has plenty of room for our family.

Very smooth

This car ended up being very comfortable and spacious especially in long drives, love that its a 7 passenger car with a panoramic sun roof.

Worth every bit of 4 1/2 stars!!

Actually owned TWO, her SX & my SXL. Why? We test drove the heck out of every suv on the market & we LOVED this model by far; so when our salesman asked why I wasn't trading in MY car vs hers, since mine was worth $ (much more than I thought!) I bought me one too (plus deep discounts as 2015's were literally being unloaded off truck out back). Only differences were my dove-grey Nappa leather vs black, sunroof, surround sound, laser cruise...mine the work commuter; hers hauled groceries/ annual rental trailer filled with mulch/daughters moving/grandkids eating in car (NOT mine!!!). ONLY reason we still don't have them: She needed more space & 3rd row leg room as we added 2 more grandkids with car seats (got her a Sedona) and the trade-in was 'healthier' than I expected. Plus suv's with 3rd rows & low mileage are higher demand than minivans among 'soccer moms'... & mine valued higher than a new 4-door sedan! Bottom line: if/when we no longer regularly haul 5 grandkids about, would not hesitate to buy another Kia Sorento(s).

Great car

This is a great family car only thing that needs any changes is the back seat needs a little wider cause it's a little cramped with a carseat other then that it's great rides really smooth and handles great

So far we are very happy.

My wife thought she wanted an SUV but disliked climbing up into a vehicle. She also did not want a small vehicle. Our former car was a Fusion SEL which she liked very much but wanted a change. I am used to driving sporty cars but see the need for an SUV occasionally. We have only had the Kia for a little over a week but both of us are happy with our choice. The 4 cyl has enough power and we are averaging 24 mpg with mostly around town and short trips. The heated seats (cloth) are great as is the seating position. The sound system is what I would expect from a top of the line system but I imagine it is mid level priced. The styling appealed to both of us and seemed to avoid the generic look of most of the new crossovers. It also seems to be an ideal size, not too small, not too big. (We also have a MINI and a Honda Pilot so we know small and large.) We also drove a Ford Escape, a Ford Edge, Chevy Equinox, as well as looking at several other SUVs. The Kia seemed to be a lot of vehicle for the money.
