Bought the SX Prestige model and am very pleased - feels luxurious, has good performance and is perfect size/utility for my family of four (2 teenagers). My only gripe is that the turbo engine has to be pushed hard off the line, but otherwise performs great. Still early in its life, but very happy so far

I bought my 2022 Sorento prestige a little over a month ago. Honestly one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! This suv has plenty of room, very sleek and amazing features. When driving, it’s like the car isn’t even on because of how quiet it is! I love that it has heated and cooled seats, gas mileage is great. It honestly has the quality you would expect from your high end car brands. I couldn’t be happier with my choice!

I love my new car! I am 5’0 so it’s hard for me to get good visibility in SUVs but this car is easy to see and very easy to drive. I especially love the captains chairs and my third row for my kids or their friends. Adults fit comfortably in the third row as well as long as the captains chairs are moved up a little.

I bought the car brand new and in 9-months have already had to replace the transmission and the air conditioning system. To make matters worse Kia didn't even give me a new transmission they gave me a refurbished one. I will NEVER buy another Kia and will go back to Honda. The car looks beautiful and three rows is great but mechanically it is a total piece of junk.

overall we really like the car and it has been well worth it. What we don't like are the small things where we have to restart the car to get something to turn off. it is almost like a glitch with the technology from time to time.

I ordered my Sorento got it in October 2022. I loved the features and how it drove. Next day I went to drive it to work and noticed there were oil drips. I called Kia and said I needed to make an appointment and they said not to worry it was probably just because the car was new and to give it a week or so to burn off the coating. To make a long story short the car leaked oil from day one. It has been in to find the leak for over a year! Each time promising me that the leak was fixed only to have to return because it wasn’t fixed! So after a year of taking it in and I kept complaining that it wasn’t fixed. They found the leak it was the rear seal. So I took it in for them to fix the seal. After two days at the dealership they called to tell me they found another leak coming from the transmission!! So now it’s still in the shop and they won’t give me a new car instead a new transmission but don’t know when it will come in. What a joke! Find another dealer and DO NOT BUY A KIA!!

56,000 miles and counting and I still love my 2022 Kia!!! I travel on I-95 a lot. And this beautiful SUV keeps me rolling. It’s stunning to look at and enjoyable to drive. The many features (technology) are the best! I absolutely loved it in 2022 and still love it in 2024!!!! Previous Review: I bought my first Sorento (SX) in 2012. A few weeks ago, with180,000 miles and still going strong, I gave it to my son-in-law. After leasing a 2021 Seltos, I realized it just didn't provide the family comfort needed for long road travel. So back to Kia I went...and I ended up with my Grey Wolf Kia Sorento S. It is absolutely stunning to look at, and the feel of it is wonderfully comfortable. The technology is, in my view some of the best I have enjoyed over the years of renting cars while traveling. And it has perks that the Lexus GX 460 doesn't have (not that I am comparing). Bottom line.... I love, love, love it. I find reasons to get in it and drive. As noted, I'm a bit older than most, but at this moment...I am a Kia Kid :)!!!

So far I love everything about my Sorento, so many bells and whistles I have yet to explore! I love how it handles and rides so smooth and quiet. It feels very safe, spacious and comfortable. Definitely feels like a high end car should, but at an average affordable price.

First off, I am sold on Kia. I've owned 3 of them, " telluride", "Sportage", and now a "Sorento". My 2023 Sorento is a pleasure to ride in and a THRILL to drive. I chose to go with the turbo version and I have to tell you, this thing will pin you to your seat if you nail it. That is not the only reason but was certainly a SUPER Strong point to purchase. I bought the SX Prestige model in wolf gray and black. I've already had many compliments on this car. The interior is luxurious and the ride is sweet. But the performance is OUTSTANDING! But that's not all, It comes with a leading industry warranty. You won't be disappointed

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

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.

I just got a 2022 Kia Sorento from Seelye Kia Battle Creek. It’s my third Sorento and I love it. First the build is amazing. It’s a car anyone will look good driving. The safety features are amazing. It can basically drive itself with lane keep assistant, smart cruise control, blind-spot avoidance, etc. I’m confident my passengers will be safe if there is a collision because of all of the airbags and other protective features. The Kia access app makes life so convenient. I love it. Get a Kia Sorento. You won’t regret it.

I bought a used 2.5 Turbo charged K5 2022 and thought I had the best car ever BUT.... At 9700 miles it had the recall of losing all horsepower and left me stranded in Arkansas. I went back a week later and thought I was rolling out with a repaired car but to my surprised it died again. I took it back to Crain Kia and they helped me get into the Sorento and I couldn't be happier. Same great Gray Wolf paint with black trim. Plenty of power to spare and more than enough space on the interior. Love the video dashboard and lots of safety features galore. Only complaints are jumpy transmission and wish I would have gotten all Wheel Drive..... KIA this is your last chance please last 150,000 miles...

I have a Sorento 2022 SX and I wish I had never purchased this vehicle. My overall rating remains the same. The customer service at ALL STAR KIA is the worst I have ever seen in life. I have yet to receive my initial free services due to the dealer putting my scheduled days off. The initial days set are months out. I just recently had an appointment for July 8th, awaiting two months only for the dealer to call me and reschedule for August 3rd. My car is 1000 miles over the scheduled service. I was told that they have to stop service on Saturdays to catch up with the back load. Does that make logical sense. NOPE.. I called Fontana Kia and they scheduled me for Monday July 10th and I was told that I would have to pay out of pocket for the service. I called KIA corporate and was told I could ASK All Star Kia to reimburse me but there is no guarantee. I am so over this. I will never ever purchase a KIA again due to CUSTOMER SERVICE. I will update with the overall vehicle soon.

i have owned the 2023 sorento for two weeks now and i am happy with my purchase i like that it came with turbo i have a 2011 sportage that is turbo and it has zip when needed we have been a Kia owners for years and have never been disappointed i believe they listen to their customers and continue to upgrade the interior is nicer than its ever been i was disappointed that i am forced to have third row seating not something i need prefer bench seating for 2nd row more convenient for my needs and needed the extra cargo space one thing that is a pet peeve of mine are the headlights on vehicles these are the best i have ever used gave four stars because of lack of choice for seating configurations

The seating is uncomfortable. Arm rests are too low. Steering doesn't come out enough, have to reach forward to steer. The blower for the face is automatically on auto and you cannot set it to a temperature you like. It changes itself to match the temperature of the car so I actually get cold! The auto start is a joke. Again, auto on 72. Doesn't defrost the windows. The heated seats don't turn on. After running for a while, the car is cold when I enter it! The annoying beep when I am simply just walking a few feet to grab my Starbucks drink off the counter. It can beep to let me know the car is on but why does it have to be so loud, annoying and embarrassing? *Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep* And if the car is running, you cannot unlock any door from the outside except the driver's door. I can go on and on. This car is just plain annoying. Wish I never got it
