KIA Sorento · photos, packages and modifications
Kia Sorento 4 x 4 would prove to be an extremely sensible choice. A new model, which borrowed the running gear from the Hyundai Santa Fe was launched in 2013. However, it is quite identical to the car that the Kia Sorento was to be the replacement for.
This particular car has an extremely functional look; something which it shares with its predecessor. However, it is quite chunky and utilitarian in its look and appearance. However, there have been some criticisms surrounding this car, based on the fact that the look is quite American, which is the intended market for the car. Furthermore, the look is not all that attractive especially since the following line-up of Kia was able to outshine in this car in terms of looks. However, the dimensions of this particular car mean that it is quite spacious inside.
This car also rated five-stars for crash safety when it was tested by Euro NCAP. This was because of the six airbags, which are fitted as standard, as well as different electronic gadgets such as Brake-force distribution, ESP and ABS that are excellent safety features. You will also find that this car is quite reliable and the faith placed by Kia in its cars can be shown by the fact that it comes with a seven-year warranty.
There are different models within this particular version, and they all have seven seats. However, the third row of seats will not have adequate space for adults but children will be able to accommodate themselves quite comfortably. However, even though the Sorento is a big car in its dimensions, even the middle row is quite disappointed. Furthermore, the backs of the front seat are also a let-down since they are covered in hard plastic. Nevertheless, the advantage is that the second and third rows can be folded easily so that the storage capacity can be up to 1,530 liters. In addition, the engine runs on diesel, which works perfectly for the towing capacity of Sorento. In fact, the manual models can two around 2500 kg. The ability of this car is also good off-road, due to the centre diff which can be locked.
