I've own a 2024 Kia Sorento SX Prestige for two months and have been completely satisfied with it. It has more then enough power. For those who have an issue with the dual clutch transmission, should understand that it is a computer controlled manual transmission. It will respond a bit differently then a conventional torque converter type. Some have said it doesn't shift smoothly at lower speeds but I personally have had no issues. I live in Pittsburgh Pa, which has a hilly terrain and bad roads and no problems so far. Stop and go traffic has been a none issue. Very smooth shifting transmission! The ride quality is very good. A little on the firmer side, but it takes large bumps well. Seats are comfortable and the interior has a premium feel. I've own a 2019 Honda Pilot Touring and in my opinion, the Sorento is better in every way except for the room in the rear. And where it excels is in the features it offers! It's much better equipped than Pilot at a less expensive price. It has so far been the best car I've own in my fifty years of buying cars! Everything works! Sorento has been one of Kia's more reliable vehicles. I highly highly recommend!

I dislike this car very much and if there was a 30- day return policy, it would be back on the lot. We have over 5K miles on it and two long trips (6 & 11 hour round trips). I stand 5 foot- 10 inches tall and find that the sensors that are housed behind the rear view mirror obscure my view out of the windshield. There are some intersections where I won’t see a car stopped to my right. When the sun visor is down, it makes visibility even worse. I cannot see around a curve without ducking or trying to look around the windshield sensor. It is not safe. The three headrests in the backseat almost take away the need for a rearview mirror. I removed the center headrest so I could see out the back window. I have been driving for about 35 years and this is the first car I have owned where the speedometer is on the left and the RPM on the right. I thought I would get used to it, but I have not. The MPG gauge at the bottom of the screen is probably the most useless gauge on the car and wish I could make it go away. The door arm rest is too low and made for a very uncomfortable long drive. There is no room at the top of the door to rest your elbow because the curve on the top of the door is too steep. I plan on taking a pillow to rest my arm on for longer trips. There center console has some room below the climate controls to store belongings. It is a natural place to set your phone. I find that there are times that when I place the car in park, I can’t get my phone out because of the gear shift. I must restart the car and put it in gear to remove the phone. The seat warmers work great, but sometimes when I have cruise control on and I bring my right foot back, my knee hits the button and turns on the warmer- annoying. The back of the passenger and driver seats typically have a kangaroo pouch, but the sorento does not. Very poor that there isn’t any storage in the backseat area. I would like to have some small spot to toss coins, but there really isn’t. When I place the back seats flat, I must remove the headrest to allow the seat to be back in a comfortable position. The spare tire storage area is roomy and items like jumper cables can be stored there. Overall, the interior is uncomfortable and poorly designed. Visibility is poor and I would be surprised to learn the engineers evaluated this before going into mass production. I regret buying this car.
