The 2021 Kia Sorento is this year’s most in-demand crossover SUV. Once again, Kia has raised the bar and developed a vehicle that outdoes the competition in overall value, standard amenities, driveability, comfort, and style. Keep reading to learn more about this fantastic vehicle.
Gorgeous Exterior Design
Kia took bold steps when creating the Sorrento and did away with the traditional minivan-looking frame. Instead, the Sorento resembles more of an SUV than its outdated cousin, leaving drivers with a rather big smile on their faces. The sleek frame of the Sorento features smooth lines and exterior accents that add a touch of sport and elegance.
Refined Interior
Not to anyone’s surprise, Kia designed yet another vehicle that gives more expensive luxury versions a run for their money. The cabin of the 2021 Sorento is meticulously designed and crafted with high-quality materials throughout the front and rear. Goodies like a 12.3-inch digital cluster and ambient lighting are standing, while opting for the SX Prestige trim nets you embossed leather upholstery. Wondering about interior space? You’ve got plenty. The Sorento is the perfect road trip vehicle.
Gas-Powered Engine Options
When selecting the model of their choice, drivers will be able to choose between two powerful engine options. The first is a 2.5L inline-four that generates 191 horsepower, which is hardly what you would expect when remembering minivans of the past. The second powertrain option is better suited for drivers who like a little more thunder when pressing the gas. This engine is a turbocharged four-cylinder that delivers a whopping 281 ponies.
Two-Hybrid Options
In the age of going green, Kia meets the demand and gives drivers a couple of hybrid engine options to accompany their gas-powered cousins. The first hybrid powertrain matches a 1.6-L four-cylinder with a 44-kW electric motor. Together they generate 227 horsepower. The second hybrid option produces 261 horsepower. It’s the same engine that’s mated to a 44-kW electric motor.
Top-Notch Entertainment System
Kia isn’t the number one leading car manufacturer solely for the way their vehicles drive. They also include plenty of tech goodies in their vehicles that drivers and critics love. Standard across all trims of the Sorento is an eight-inch touchscreen infotainment system. It’s easy to use and features both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. A 10.25-inch screen is available for drivers who like to go bigger.
Plenty of Standard Safety Features
For Kia, driver and passenger safety is number one. So it comes as no surprise that the 2021 Sorento is loaded with standard safety features to help drivers avoid accidents. Driver-assist features include forward impact warning, blind-spot monitors, and automatic emergency braking, just to name a few. It’s ranked as one of the safest vehicles in its segment, which should make drivers feel good about owning one.
