Traded my AUDI for this KIA... & NOT LOOKING BACK!

Bought this Sorento 8 months ago, and we've driven it every day around town and taken it on cross-country touring. We're very, very pleased. This is no 1990's Kia. My previous car was an Audi A8L - a very premium car - and I'm actually more comfortable in the Sorento. I know these two cars are not really comparable, but for what it's worth, the Sorento is a quieter, smoother and more enjoyable vehicle. (OK, so it's not as fast, and it doesn't take corners the same; but it does what I need it to do, flawlessly). A non-quantifiable assessment that's perhaps most germane: This car makes me smile. (And not just because it cost half of what I paid for the Audi). It is a really nice piece of machinery. The little engine has ample power for an SUV; and I saw 27 mpg overall in our cross-country trip, including short stop and go forays in several cities. (Around 22 in town; averaging almost 24). The huge panoramic sunroof is fun. The longer we drive it, the more unexpected positives we discover. The active speed control is fantastic; keeps distance from car ahead and slows to a full stop if necessary, then starts again without touching accelerator (unless you're stopped more than 20 seconds). Blind spot warning is flawless. The lane keep assist warning is helpful. Automatic opening hatch has been a real help when carrying groceries, etc. The downloadable apps are useful. The voice recognition actually recognizes words (a lot better than my Audi). The sound system with the tech package is pretty good. Especially down here in Dallas, the cooled front seats are a happy surprise. Obviously, I'm not swayed by those who insist on a luxury brand. I deeply appreciate quality, regardless of its author. Give me the genuine experience of excellence over a label any day.

I have had the 2016 Sorento SXL 2.0L Turbo for over 6 months now with no single problem. I just love everything about this great SUV. The 2.0L turbo engine delivers so much power in all wheel drive. Just waiting to get my hands on the 2019 SXL. Good job KIA

Engine is being replaced under 100,000 Kim’s yes Kia paying for everything on the 2.0 litre turbo. Had my son’s 2014 Santa Fe sport replaced at 80,000 a few years ago. They have problems with this engine. Drove domestic all my life and never had any engine issues but if the big 3 had issues after this many years I’m sure they wouldn’t pay for the repairs. I still love my SUV other than the vent tabs it’s a great ride.
