It was the right choice for me

It’s a rocket once you learn how to use the transmission stable ride, quiet ,handles Better than a grand Cherokee. Have taken it on quite a few long trips and it’s easy to spend the whole day in it. Visibility is excellent. Needs more padding on the touch points for your elbows 1/2 inch of foam can’t be that much more expensive than 1/4 inch. Plastic trim on the car appears to be clear coated because it is not scratching after many washes. outside door pillars are Getting spiderweb swirls

Good choice for an economy vehicle

Don't mistake the Sorento for a luxury SUV. In the economy class it stands alone as one of the few small SUV's with a 3rd row. The car looks nice from the outside. The car looks OK from the inside. The touch screen display is GOOD too. But the fake leather seats seem to really hold heat. There's no seat cooling on the X line, i'm not sure about the others. Only some of the seats are electronic. The tires were excellent. But other than that NOTHING was excellent about the vehicle. There's MANY reports of vibration on the highway. I felt it at anything over 40mph. The ride was also literally NAUSEATING around neighborhood roads. I really wanted to like the car, it looks good and the price was good but loved absolutely nothing about it.
