Kia Sorento Specs - In Details

Exterior

Like any other KIA car, Kia Sorento also inherited the signature tiger-nose grille feature. With the help of two LED headlamps, the grille pops out, making KIA's exterior always a great choice for those who love sporty yet edgy car design. 

All Sorento variants will be equipped with modern LED headlights since they come with a multi-reflector array. Also, various-setting LEDs will be there, including daytime running lights, fog lamps, tail lamps, etc. 

Speaking of the exterior, we must mention the robust 19-inch alloy wheel tires, the sensing control due to light and rain, and other cool standard exterior features you will see once getting your hands on this car.

Interior

The most noticeable difference that makes this vehicle stand out is its huge Kia Sorento dimensions design - 4810 mm L x 1900 mm W x 1700 mm H.

Not to mention that the Kia Sorento seating capacity is seven people, more than seven people to seat in comfortably (but of course we won't do that!) - instead we can replace it by putting luggage, baggage, etc. 

You get leather upholstery, power seats, and a smart-key entrance in all variants. Rear passengers get their aircon vents to support the whole car's venting system.

5 seats are set still from the beginning, and two more seats can be folded down. Otherwise, they can be put back up to create a spacious vent. 

Engine and Performance

This midsize crossover is happy to take on a 2.2-liter diesel Kia Sorento engine that produces up to 198 hp and 442 Nm of torque, which is considered an outstanding output compared to other Kia's breeds.

Geometry turbo technology is updated for smooth operation while driving at low RPMs. 

Transmission

With the feeding of an 8-speed automatic transmission and Shiftronic, drivers can drive Kia Sorento 2023 with ease without worrying about a dead engine and broken system. The crossover is effortless to maneuver and eventually stops thanks to the light steering system.

Despite its midsize, drivers do not have difficulty managing and controlling the Kia Sorento to get it where it needs to be. The engine is so "sensitive" that it can make you realize how fast you are going if you only step on the gas pedal. 

Having a diesel motor that works just fine makes driving with a Kia Sorento easy to handle, like a breeze.

Technology and Safety

This car has various new, modern technological details that can make your driving experience easier than ever. An 8-inch infotainment screen includes all-kinds-of wireless activity that can help you be on track, answer calls, etc., including Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, Bluetooth, etc.

Get a lively cabin with a 6-speaker system with woofers arranged neatly all around the cabin.

Drivers now no need to bring a separate charger as they can use the Qi-wireless chagrin pad. According to your variant, there is cruise control with front and rear sensors, rear or 360-degree camera for parking assistance.

All protective features can be found in the Sorento's safety kit, like airbags, automatic stability control, hill-start assist, brake-assist settings, vehicle stability management, and ISOFIX child seat anchors.
