Used 2019 Kia Sorento for Sale

What's New in the 2019 Kia Sorento?

Outside, new front/rear fascias, grille, headlights, fog lights, rear liftgate and taillights provide a somewhat more sophisticated appearance. Inside, a new cluster design and small adjustments to a number of components like the air vents, center console and steering wheel add to the already upscale look of the interior. All grades now provide 7-passenger seating as standard with a 40/20/40-split folding second-row seat and a 50/50-split folding third-row seat. The third row was an option in the 2018 edition. Kia streamlined the engine choices for 2019 by eliminating the 2.0-liter turbo. As mentioned above, a newly available 8-speed automatic transmission is paired with the returning V6. For 2019, every Sorento comes with a touchscreen (7-inch for lower trims and 8-in for the others). All include Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Newly available on upper-level trims are lane-keep assist and driver attention warning.

Which Sorento is the Best?

The 2018 Sorento EX offers great value, providing extensive standard features without breaking the bank. We'd go with the V6 in EX trim. It's nicely equipped. Opt for AWD and you can tow up to 5,000 pounds.
