What Changed

Kia updated the Sorento SUV. The most visible change is revised styling in the front of the vehicle. The chassis has been re-engineered to increase rigidity and improve ride and handling. A new 3.3l V6 engine produces 290-bhp and 252 lb-ft of torque. The 2.4l four-cylinder engine carries over. The instrument panel has been updated to accommodate larger screens in the instrument cluster and in the center stack.
