My Third Sorento

Excellent roominess. Interior look very nice. Handles great! Good mileage for vehicle this size. Quiet on the highway. Overall very happy with any Kia, especially the Sorento. The LX is nicely equipped for the price.

Good value for a 3 row SUV.

For a 3rd row SUV and with the features it has, this is a fair priced vehicle that actually has room for the passengers sitting in the 3rd row

Most reliable SUV I have ever owned

This SUV met all of my needs, it has plenty of leg room in front and back and the ride is great, driving the Pilot, Ridgeline, Highlander, Santa Fe, and several others, the Sorento was by far the best value for my money. It is solidly built, quiet, and smooth. It's just the right size, has very comfortable seats and is loaded with all the goodies

Better than expected!

All around a good quality crossover. We went with the v6 model fwd. The 3rd row seating is perfect for kids and folds down with the second row to give a ton of cargo space. The voice recognition software is better than current android phones. I'm using the S9. I'm very happy with ther multiple transmission settings. Eco saves us gas and the sport setting give a ton of extra punch to get out into traffic or pass other drivers. A few small negative points I would say have to be the well below the wipers. It collects water and debris very easily and doesn't drain well. The rear window is a bit difficult to clean on top due to the small spoiler. Very minor complaints but something to think about.

Number one in safety with the luxury feel we all.

When I was looking for a new vehicle my number one goal was safety for my 4 year old son and myself. As well as receiving the luxury feel without the price tag.

Love it!

I love this car! I fit 6 teenagers in the back! I might be a mom, but I can be a "cool" mom in this car! So much space!

Offers all we wanted, plus a beautifull SUV

The car has so many features, that comfort and ease of operation only requires the driver to enjoy the ride. The styling is amazing, and gets attention where ever we go.

Most comfortable vehicle I've ever owned

Kia in general has come a long way in terms of quality and reliability over the last decade. I used to look at them as a cheap poor person?s car but I was really surprised when I tried the Sorento for the first time; the comfort, performance, and standard options have all surpassed my expectations. I would recommend the Kia to anybody.
