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

I have the X-Line EX with FWD. This is my 4th Sorento. It started out bad…. Within an hour of buying it the check engine light came on. Did the usual, checked gas cap and it stayed on. Called to get appt. but nothing available for 3 weeks, they said unless the light is flashing it’s no big deal. The next day tire goes flat. The following day windshield cracks. I think this thing has a curse on it. It needed a fuel sensor. Fixed it. Driving to vacation it loses power, feels like it shifted into neutral. Dealer says can’t find anything wrong. When I start the car (car in Park, Parking brake on and foot not on gas pedal) it feels like it lurches forward, car actually rocks. When I proceed to put it in drive and start out slowly it feels like it’s chugging along, not a smooth glide. I’m truly confounded by all of these issues. When it’s cold outside ALL guages light up and infotainment system won’t work. Any time it rains or is cold the Driver Assist quits and the parking sensors quit. Rear view camera is always foggy even if I wipe it off every time I get into the car. I drive in the Economy setting. Horrendous gas mileage. I’m sick of buying gas all the time….. my last Sorento would sometimes get 42 mpg, this one varies between 17 and 23. I’m OVER this car. It’s a beautiful car but too many issues. I see there’s a recall, hopefully it’ll fix the mileage.

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.

Enjoyable vehicle, but a few oddities...

Overall I am pleased with the 24 Sorento. The exterior is very modern/sporty. I have 10K miles on the vehicle so I have had time to evaluate. This is my first Kia - I feel they made a good vehicle but a few things keep it from being a great vehicle. Pros: Roomy cabin. I'm 6 ft. and do not feel cramped in front or back seats. (have not used 3rd row) Seats are comfortable Display and rear camera are exceptional handling is firm and responsive Peppy engine - smooth transition, quick acceleration I have only hand washed the vehicle, but the paint and finish seems to be above average A lot of helpful safety features Great warranty Cons: speakers/sound are only average. expected more driver assist warnings are annoying - no way to disable key fob is huge and bulky. button layout is a head scratcher (c'mon Kia) unable to use the inside door lock button- this is how it was designed, why even have a button lack of storage compartments in cabin A Lot of Wind noise on Freeway - cabin not sealed tightly Remote start range is weak and unreliable No way to visually see if vehicle actually started no running lights lit to indicate. Was NOT impressed with vehicle first time in snow if I could turn back time, would I buy this vehicle again....Probably. I really like it but don't love it. I was considering it's sister the Santa Fe - 2023 (2024 remodel of Santa Fe is bad).
