Love everything but the infotainment!

Great car! Drives very smoothly, and the gas mileage is great for an SUV. The interior feels very upscale. It is quite comfortable. If not for riding so high, you would think you were in a regular car. I am very happy, except for the infotainment system and navigation. First, you cannot change the home screen. It automatically defaults to navigation every time you turn on the car. I don't know about most people, but I'm not using navigation on a day-to-day basis, so I really don't need a map visible at all times. So, every time I get into the car, I have to switch the view to the radio/satellite screen. Why can't I choose that as my default, Kia? Second, there are 18 presets for the satellite, and you have to scroll through all 18 (or go backwards) to get back to the beginning. Not the end of the world, but kind of annoying. I ended up choosing 6 stations and programming each in three times so I can scroll through without having to go backwards. Also, the volume function is not responsive--no chance of turning the volume up or down quickly. You can spin it as fast as you want, but it still raises and lowers at the same speed. Finally, the Bluetooth works great. It connects immediately. However, the voice-activated phone book is a disaster. It rarely recognizes the name I say. It's almost not worth using. So, there are kinks in the infotainment system, but all-in-all, I am happy with my Sorento.

I love my Sorento

I never in a million years thought I would buy a Kia. The car is so roomy for my giant husband. The seats are comfortable for my delicate back. The ride is smooth-I must watch my speed as I find I do 80 because it is so quiet and my speed creeps up on me. I thought I was going to get a Subaru Outback. They were giving me a poor trade in on my Cadillac and not offering a deal in any way and I was not in love with the car. I actually am not a lover of cars as many people are but, I love my Sorento. As far as trade in value, who knows and who cares. We tend to just keep them until they die anyway. I am still getting used to the bells and whistles.

2016 Kia Sorento EX 4dr SUV (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6A)

Buying decision came down to 2016 Ford Edge Titanium or 2016 Kia Sorento EX Premium. Actually preferred the Edge, but not to the tune of a $5500+ price difference. Driving feel is very good with ample storage and easy to use controls. Put 1100 miles on in the first 10 days without any issues. Hard to beat the warranty. After 1 yr of ownership, car runs well. Front seats are too firm for long trip comfort, and sound system is underpowered, but no major issues to date.

If considering the premium package, definitely consider the touring package. You get a much better screen (Nav/multimedia) and the glass roof (panoramic sunroof) is unbelievable. In our case the cost difference was only $44 / month payment wise. So, we got the touring and have not regretted the purchase.

I had a bmw 328i before and traded it in for 2016 Sorento Sx V6. Although I don't use the 3rd row often I have filled it up w 6 people including myself 2 on each row. My guests said very comfortable. My bmw was boring compared to the sorento. The value is great I got all bells and whistles for a lesser price getting the SX Fwd. Before sorento I was thinking of getting Tacoma but then I thought A truck with a bed I don't even tow 99% of the times! Sorento has excellent interior very upscale Kia. Kia is coming up nasty!
