279 Used Kia Sorento cars for sale

With the fourth generation, Kia looked to update the style and features to match the price being charged. As a large 4x4 SUV, it was well-equipped for big families, but could always use more refinement. One powertrain option was initially offered, with the choice of a manual or automatic transmission and available four-wheel drive. Since then, more powertrains have been added.

Interior upgrades included available 10-way power seat adjustments, creating a better positioning. Road visibility was improved, thanks to the large windscreen.

For the third-generation Sorento, Kia increased the amount of high-strength steel used in the build, making it stronger and safer overall. It became a top contender against the Volvo XC90 and the Land Rover Discovery.

A 2017 refresh didn't change the style dramatically. Instead, Kia worked on fine-tuning what was already working. Top-of-the-range models were fitted with premium Nappa leather and high-end materials for a luxury feel.

After the success of the original Kia Sorento, the designers worked to make the SUV more desirable. The goal was to create an upscale vehicle without the luxury price. A new grille showed off the tiger-nose design, while the headlights were built in a sharp and angular style.

The dashboard also received some updates, with the speedometer mounted to the centre. The LCD screen revealed important data from the computer, and there was an optional panoramic glass roof.
