2013 LX GDI AWD

We bought a 2012 SX AWD for the wife last year. We love that car so much we bought another one for me. I use it for work everyday so I went with the GDI for better gas mileage. I'm getting between 24 and 25 combined with a couple hundred pounds of tools and parts in it. The acceleration is peppy and more than adequate. The 6 speed shifts smoothly and effortlessly. Handling is great, a very good turning radius so it handles like a smaller car. The SX has 25000 miles on it and mine has 1000 and we've had no problems out of either of them. I am probably a Kia customer for life now.

The kia shut off going down the road. In had it towed to Kia the wiring burned and luckily didn't catch on fire. Kia is paying to put a new motor in.The ride was comfy and it goes through the snow like a champ

We have had our Sorento for a few days now. All i can say is, don't hesitate, buy this SUV. I love it, we have 4 kids and the 3rd row seat is very nice. I was a little nervous having a 4 cyl. in a Mid sized SUV but all the worries were quickly squashed. I don't know what the other reviewers were talking about when they said the 4 cyl Sorento was under powered, it's not. Try it for your self you'll be impressed. The ride is very smooth, the seats are comfy and overall it's just a very good looking SUV. Oh, the sound system is awesome! The only thing they should change, is to put a luggage rack on all models. I hope this helps someone, you wont be disappointed.

This model with the smaller 4 cy engine is SERIOUSLY UNDERPOWERED. I took my first long trip with it last weekend and it got scary a couple of times. When I needed get up and go it wasn't there. Get the larger 4 cy or a .6 Also it doesn't take the bumps very well..very rough ride on moderately bumpy roads. I'm already thinking of getting rid of it and I don't have 3000 miles on it yet.

Got your Attention, I hope so . 2.4 AWD w/ 9000miles convenience package. Here’s the deal, this car runs and drives great. Road noise I place in the top ten for quiet. Handling is very good, I like firm but nibble. The transmission while in the ECO mode hunts more than my golden retriever, I thought my toyota shifted a lot, trying to keep that ECO light on is a trick but doable why I don’t know. The beige interior stains very easily DO NOT drop a french fry. The fuel mileage indicator on the dash says what I thinks its supposed to 18-20city 26-29 on the highway. With a average of 22.5 to24.
