In this episode, TheStraightPipes put the 2024 Kia Sorento through its paces, revealing a beastly 281 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque from its turbocharged 2.5L 4-cylinder engine. The refreshed exterior of the Sorento boasts new headlights with striking yellow lines, full LED tail lights, and unique electric key wheels borrowed from the EV9. The X line trim adds a touch of ruggedness with a suspension lift, roof rails, and blacked-out wheels wrapped in Continental tires, ensuring a smooth and quiet ride.
Inside, the three-row Sorento surprises with a spacious and usable third row, making it a practical six-seater SUV. Comfort features like peasant blockers, heated seats, and a large moonroof add to the overall appeal. The front seats offer adjustable headrests and lumbar support, although some find the lumbar support a bit too firm. The SUV's power delivery, courtesy of an eight-speed transmission, is complemented by excellent handling, thanks in part to the Continental tires.
The interior of the Kia Sorento impresses with its dual 12-inch displays, seamless Apple CarPlay integration, and convenient wireless charging. The SUV's starting price of $38,975 Canadian may seem steep, but the reviewed model at $50,975 offers a well-rounded package. With a towing capacity of 3500 lbs, the Sorento proves to be a versatile and capable option in its segment. Overall, the Kia Sorento shines as a practical, comfortable, and powerful SUV that ticks many boxes for discerning buyers.
