Very roomy SUV

This SUV is very comfortable and roomy. Plenty of leg room and plenty of room in the back for hauling larger items. I love the large back-up camera.

Awesome gas mileage

I replaced a minivan with a three row Kia Sorento, you can not beat the gas mileage. The seats and interior is slightly more cramped than a minivan, but it?s a great alternative to a minivan or large SUV.

Great car great value

This is what we were looking for, an affordable small suv that has the option to seat 7 and it has AWD. It drives great, it?s spacious. One thing we like about KIA is that it had the best warranty from all the cars we were deciding between.

Most Enjoyable Car I've Owned Yet

This car meets my needs as being AWD but also capable of carrying 7 passengers. It fell within my price range and has a nice amount of extras to make travel more fun.

Worst car ever after it reaches 100k

we have a 16 sorento with 117k miles. So we started from one problem to the next. It stalled one day in traffic. we replaced the battery as we thought that's what it was. and took it to dealership the next day. There we were advised the engine was gone due to no oil. this is 2 months past the previous oil change. no warning lights. no signs at all. dealership says its dry but showing no leaks....?????? replace the engine and then get it programmed for the car and also have to replace starter and electric control module... looks good runs well... 2 days.. engine light is on take it back to the shop... oh its the intake its not connecting right too much air flow... next day.. oh it wont switch gears to move in the shop... back to kia... bad trans... I Quit

Our first Kia product,

We were looking for something in the middle...not to small not to big ...this was just what we needed....plenty of room and plenty of options and no worries for along time...
