Had a 2012 Sorento with the 4 cylinder. Pretty peppy and pretty good gas mileage. Noticed however that when climbing hills it didn't upshift well. I attributed this to an outmatched engine for the weight of the vehicle. Just got the 2014 Sorento SX with the V6 GDI. It has tons of power and is super quiet. 400 pounds lighter and bigger engine is the winning combo. Silky smooth and great looking!

My wife needed a new car and we wanted something that could haul 5 comfortably, and occasionally squeeze up to 2 more. Reliability was also very important. In addition, my wife loves all the little comfort features, so these were the main 2 criteria. After extensive research, I narrowed down the list to: Kia Sorento, Hyundai Santa Fe, and Toyota Highlander. Personally, I preferred the Santa Fe, but there are way fewer of these on the market (we were looking for a late model lightly used vehicle to not take the big depreciation hit). So, it was between the Santa Fe and Highlander. I like the Highlander, but I was able to get a newer Sorento with less miles and more features.

In May 2016 I bought a 2014 Kia Sorento SX V6 with 50424 miles on it. Because the tires needed to be replaced after a short while, I went to Sam's Club and bought 4 Michelin Premier tires for just under $900 before taking a trip to Las Vegas, NV. Though I drove over 1500 miles in 2 days, I was amazed that I did not feel exhausted. I absolutely fell in love with the Sorento. And several years later I feel the same way.

I picked up my Kia at a Cadillac dealership. The car was about a year old with 3500 miles on it. The price was $8000 below sticker. For the past 4 months, the car has been stellar. Excellent ride, good handling, excellent gas mileage and it's comfortable. The car was well equipped with panoramic sunroof, heated and cooled seats, power liftgate, power folding mirrors, nav, bluetooth, music hard drive, dual power seats, side radar, 3rd seat, rear a/c. I've gotten 24-25 mpg with regular driving around the city. It gets 29-30 on the road.

Paid 17 Thousand dollars for my used Kia Sorento1.5 years ago. The rod bearing went on my commute to work and I was left stranded. Quoted 22 THOUSAND to replace the engine by Kia. This extensive issue has Kia offering extended warranty on several other models, but not this one. Worst purchase I have ever made.
