The Sorento is the only vehicle tested to earn the institute's Top Safety Pick+ award. The vehicle was modified for the 2019 model year to improve protection in a passenger-side small overlap crash.


KIA doing work. A lot of people on this site bad-mouth KIA mericlessly, but KIA makes a pretty nice vehicle.

I'll be getting rid of my Jeep in a year or so, and KIA's way up on the list of possible replacements.

They have certainly come a long way from their "Buy One Get One Free" days...

My friends rent swanky condos for a race in Aspen every year. I couldn't justify it this year (to wife anyway), so I "car camped" at a campground that was closed for major fall renovation, right outside of town but a few people were RVing in the lot and I just turned my rental Sorrento into my own homeless shelter in paradise.

I was shocked by the quality. Avis upgraded me for free to the AWD, V6, 3-row model, and it handled Independence Pass like a champ. And the cargo space w both back rows folded flat was more than ample.

If their long-term quality and reliability keep improving then it's a no brainier pick in the class, especially at their pricing. It also looked good enough to not LOOK totally homeless, driving around Aspen. Ahhh California.
