Sorento SX 2019 review after one year and three months Some people put reviews of their car after only a few days or weeks. On my side I prefer waiting a little more to give a better review based on usage and time. This is my first Kia ever. All I have to say is I am blown away by the incredible buit quality This vehicle has. No rattle no cracking noise. Just as solid as it was the first day I bought it. I still enjoy it just as much as I purchased it the first day. I have never had any issues with it. I have 36,000 km on it and it just feels like coming out of the dealership. I read many reviews here and most people seem to comment on the poor 8 speed transmission’s reliability for being jerky and poor shifting. All I have to say on my side is since the first day I bought the vehicle it always gave me 100% satisfaction. Never did I feel some jerky feeling from the transmission or poor shifting. However I have a recommendation for people who seem to feel that jerky feeling. Try premium gasoline. Personally when I drove my car with regular gasoline I could feel some hesitation. This hesitation makes you feel like it’s the transmission that could be problematic. But in fact when I switch to premium gasoline it definitely made a huge difference. I drove the car with regular gasoline for over six months till I switched to premium. What a difference! Before judging the transmission try at least premium gasoline. For your information since the car seem to burn fuel better with premium gasoline I believe I save half a litre per kilometre in consumption. There was a time where I would make 10.1L/100 km but now I’m more likely in the 9.6 L /100 Km. Yes you pay a little more but you save a little bit on the other hand. Ben from Boisbriand QC
Perfect for toting around the little ones

If you are a car-snob, the Kia is not for you, however if you want a reliable, safe, comfortable car to transport e.g. a five and three year old around a city, it's perfect. The Kia is so peppy I often don't notice I'm going 80mph on the freeway because it drives so smooth. I also carpool back and forth to a magnet school about 18 miles from us, so needed an option to fit two extra children, and the kids all fight about who gets to sit in the back, they love it back there. We don't plan any extremely long trips with this car, or any camping, so I did not buy the car for cargo space (though there is plenty). The all-wheel drive is nice to have! For what I use it for, the Kia Sorento is an extremely smooth ride on the highway and around the city. Great Value for Money!

We bought the EX V-6 AWD. Which is the only way to go in my opinion. Love the car. Very attractive. Perfect size for a family of 4. Nice to have a 3rd row in a pinch, but usually just use the space for groceries & stuff. Engine has adequate power. I feel we got a lot for our money. Very happy so far. We've had the Sorento 6 months now & still love it. Update- we've had the Sorento almost 2 years now. Have not had any problems. Oil changes & tire rotations. That's it. Still really like the size of it. I'm 6 ' 7" & I fit comfortable in it with my wife & two kids. The safety features are nice. Safety & reliability is why we bought a Kia, & it lives up to our expectations. Definitely get the V6. It's not impressive, but adequate. I couldn't imagine how slow the 4 banger would be. AWD is the only way to go living in Minnesota. We plan to keep this vehicle at least 10 years. So I can update again in a few years. 2 years & 24,000 miles later & not a single problem. I'm a Kia fan for life !

if you want to go smooth and easy, this is your suv. not a sports car. up to 5 works well, the 2 seats in back are not so easy to get back there, but are good for infrequent use. A lot of really nice aspects of this vehicle.

Purchased one and liked it so much, 6 weeks later we traded an 2013 Infiniti JX35 for the second KIA. The price was half of the Infiniti, so it was like two for one.
