Overall best car I've ever owned!

This car looks nice, drives wonderful, great gas mileage and meets all our needs! I would reccomend this car to anyone. It works for families, hauling, towing, off roading, comfort on long trips and everyday commuting!

Not satisfied with vehicle

Only had vehicle a week and I’ve had it back at the service center twice. I have the L model and it rides and sounds like it’s a bad tire on it. Service manager told me it’s because of the weight of the vehicle. The noise is very annoying. I turn of the radio and I still can hear it. They are refusing to let me return the vehicle. I’m so frustrated and sick to my stomach. I love the vehicle but I’m not satisfied with the performance.

Great car!!!

After driving the Pilot, Ridgeline, Highlander, Santa Fe, and several others, the Sorento EX V6 was by far the best value for my money. It is solidly built, quiet, and smooth. The ride is like a Lexus and it handles almost like a sedan. It's just the right size, has very comfortable seats and is loaded with technology! If you're looking for a new crossover in this segment, put this one on your short list to test drive.

Overall a great design

So far I absolutely love this vehicle. It has a sporty yet high end appearance with all the bells and whistles. I had several different makes and models in mind...but I kept coming back to the Sorento. My previous vehicle was a 2013 Kia Sportage...which gave me absolutely NO issues...I just felt like I could really trust the brand. I think I will have this vehicle for many years to come.

The worst car I’ve ever owned..

Car cuts out all the time and now the gear box is going. It’s less that 3 years old. Manufacturers DO NOT stand by the seven year warranty 😡😢

I love my KIA

The best value for my money. It is quiet, and smooth. The ride is like a Lexus and it handles almost like a sedan. It's just the right size for my family of five! I absolutely love it!

Happy new Sorento owners

After doing too much research I knew this was the vehicle I wanted based on price, performance, reliability and warranty. We tried 4 cyls and knew we needed at least a 6.
