Emilio Herrera, Chief Operating Officer for Kia Motors Europe, comments: “The Sorento’s evolution over the last 18 years echoes that of the Kia brand as a whole. While the car was initially launched in 2002 as a utilitarian all-terrain vehicle, the fourth-generation Sorento has been transformed into something altogether more desirable. It is an important model for Kia, particularly now that it also represents the first use of electrified power in our flagship SUV.”

The third generation Sorento is stunning. The refreshed, modern look is accentuated by the restyled headlamps, a wider, bolder stance, and a new grille design. Inside, the cabin has been refreshed and  fitted with premium, high quality materials. There is a 10.25 inch infotainment system and a 12.3 inch digital gauge cluster, along with a mood lighting system, a wireless charging dock, and a high quality BOSE® sound system.
