Hoping for the Best from our new 2018 Kia Sorento!

We bought our 2018 Kia on the last day of 2017 and couldn't be happier. The style, the color, the options, the ratings and the warranty compelled us to make this purchase. As a family with two young children, this vehicle best fit our needs and the price is unrivaled. We hope for many enjoyable years with the newest member of our family!

retired

I have owned 4 Sorentos and Suspension still Needs work. Suspension is what makes car ride like a Million Bucks. Sorento could also be 1.5 to 2 feet longer and 8 inches Higher.. Over all I will still buy another Next Yr..

just two weeks old

After looking online at prices and reviews for other midsize SUV's, I determined that the value for this car was unbeatable.

Impressed by the KIA

So far I am ver impressed with this vehicle. I used to own a Yukin Denali XL. We decided to go smaller but didnt want to miss any of the safety features and driving in the snow. We still needed room for the family, hockey and softball equipment....SO WORTH IT...

Smooth ride

Overall good car only complaint if being picky is the driver side. When your driving since the vehicle's windshield is at such a slant( obviously to improve mpg) you have to set your seat as low as possible that way your neck can remain straight otherwise your looking slighlty down to look at the road in front of you. If your a tall person it would be more of an issue for you since there isnt much head clearance.

new car love it, ask again in a year for best repl

This is an LX plus and its loaded, we love everything about this car, the space, performance all is good, we have the tech package, love the features, it is still very new. if you want the best review hit me up in a year, my previous car was the Kia Optima also loaded and it was a fantastic car would recommend that one to anyone looking for a mid-size.

Best option for the Money and best warranty in the

I traded in a Buick Enclave on this Sorento. It is easier to drive, rides better, has more power, the style is beautiful, and has more features than the new Enclave. I also own a new Mercedes GL450, and this Kia is just as good or better than the Mercedes, but much less Money.

Comfortable and stylish!

This SUV had everything we were looking for in a new vehicle. Love the rear camera, soft and smooth ride, warranty rocks, nice and wide inside. Best of all...rear vents! Several SUVs in this price range do not offer rear vents, which is a shame. You get a lot of perks for the price compared to other makes and models!
