We bought a 2010 Rav4. Recall, poor customer service and poor comfort drove us to reevaluate. The Sorento surprised both my wife and I. Very comfortable stable and powerful platform. We love all the standard features. They all seem to be very smart, just what you need but not a lot of gimmicks. Time will tell how well it all holds up.

My wife and I are in love... with our Kia Sorento SX!

My wife and I are extremely happy with our white pearl 2011 Kia Sorento SX. The V6 engine is best in class and doesn't chug gas so long as you drive conservatively mixed city/hwy. We had looked at the Mazda CX-9 but it was too large, expensive, and thirsty on the gas. The Sorento on the other hand is the perfect size for many families and a great value, even in its top-of-the-line SX trim. The dual flow damper shocks on the SX give the car a sporty ride that's only occasionally jittery on rough roads. This car is seriously one of the best buys we have made in a long while. I would highly, highly recommend it.

Base Model Bargain

I printed out a coupon for 25 dollar gift card if you test drove a new Sorento. I drove one and bought it on the spot. With the owner loyalty and cash back rebates, along with another 2 grand off from the dealer, I walked out of the door for 18,500. That price included sales tax, plates, doc fees, and accessory floor mats.

It can't get better than this

I've had my new Sorento only 3 days and less than 200 miles, yet the car is built like a champ. It doesn't have AWD but with the front wheel drive and all of the safety systems I do not believe I will need the upgrade for New York's Hudson Valley. The safety and tech features are either unmatched or very rarely matched for the selling price. AND you don't have to pay extra for the longer warranty and road side assistance. The 4 cylinder engine/6 spd transmission is plenty of power for this car in city, country & highway driving (thankfully I wasn't stopped).

Sorento Surprise

My husband and I set out to replace our 2004 Mazda MPV with a 7 seater crossover. We drove the Flex, the Journey, and two versions of the Traverse before the Kia. We were looking to test drive the Borego but the dealership didn't have any so we jumped into the 2011 Sorento and were really surprised by what we found. The Sorento has a comfortable, smooth ride. It has great pick up, nice features and enough room for our family of 5. We've had the car for 2 weeks now and we have no regrets. This car is fun to drive!! It has plenty of zip with it's V6 3.5L engine, pretty good gas mileage and the features like the dual vista moon/sun roofs give a new cool to mom's "people mover"!!
