Nice replacement for my ML350

I have been leasing a M350 for the last three years and the Sorento EX AWD is very similar in the size as well as interior space offering leather seating as well as all of the bells and and whistles that the Benz did. Smooth ride, 6 cylinder gives plenty of punch with good gas mileage. Regular gas a plus.

Love love love it!

The car is perfect for my family of 4! There is plenty of leg room as well, even in the 3rd row! Super happy we went with a Kia!

Great all-around SUV!

This vehicle drives very smooth and is quiet in the cabin for every day driving and road trips. The gas mileage is excellent and you get a lot for what it costs.

Awesome SUV!!!

This is the best value out there for a larger size SUV. Love the styling, interior and Apple Carplay. Safe , reliable, practical and comfortable. Have had it for less than a week and received so many compliments on it and several of my friends are going to check out the Sorento for their next vehicle after seeing mine. LOVE it!!!

Excellent Value

Great features, nice ride, roomier than expected and great value. Surprised by the pickup the car has. Safety and comfort features all are easy to navigate. Looking forward to keeping it for many years.

Love my New Kia Sorento

This was a step up from a Kia Soul. I wanted the latest safety features (lane departure, blind spot mirrors) and got more. This car has advanced cruise control that will slow the car if a car ahead is going slower than I am. The gas mileage is a bit of a shock, but I have not driven a 6 cylinder before. The only irritant is that the fan comes on at a higher speed when the car is started; I would rather that it self-adjust lower after a bit. Instead, I have to lower it by hand. I am very pleased that the mute button for the sound system is in this car. My last Kia Soul did not have it where my first one did.

Most reliable car I have ever owned

The KIA Sorento is a very nice car inside and out. I like the shape and all of the interior design. It is very comfortable and stylish.
