Kia Sorento Generations

Kia Sorento 18 Generation (2021)

The Sorento three-row SUV was redesigned for 2021 and slots just below the Telluride three-row SUV in Kia’s lineup. The Sorento is bigger this year and has an updated multimedia system, a nicer cabin, an available hybrid powertrain, more standard safety features, and a rugged off-road version.

Kia Sorento 17 Generation (2020)

Kia has shuffled the Sorento’s trim level lineup, but there are otherwise no significant changes this year.

Kia Sorento 16 Generation (2019)

The Sorento gets a light update for 2019; the biggest change is a third row that’s now standard on all trim levels. There are also some styling updates on the outside, small tweaks to the interior, and a new eight-speed automatic transmission paired with the optional V-6.

Kia Sorento 15 Generation (2018)

A backup camera and automatic headlights that Kia says have improved performance are standard.

Kia Sorento 14 Generation (2017)

There are two new option packages – Advanced Touring and Advance Technology – and both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are expected to be added to the vehicles later in the model year.

Kia Sorento 13 Generation (2016)

The 2016 Sorento is bigger, has a redesigned control layout, and a new optional turbocharged four-cylinder engine. Like its predecessor, the new Sorento is available with standard five-person seating and can accommodate seven people with an optional third row.

Kia Sorento 12 Generation (2015)

The Kia Sorento was redesigned in 2014, so changes are minor. For 2015, the Sorento gets a restyled grille, and its four-cylinder engine earns 1 additional mpg on the highway.

Kia Sorento 11 Generation (2014)

With the available V-6 engine, the Kia Sorento delivers improved performance. Ride quality is controlled, although some road noise can be expected, especially with the available 19-inch wheels. There are plenty of luxury features and two- or three-row seats, but cargo space is greatly reduced with a third row. Curtain cushions don’t extend to the third row, either.

Kia Sorento 10 Generation (2013)

The Sorento is equipped with a 191-hp 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine and a six-speed automatic transmission.

Kia Sorento 9 Generation (2012)

Important standard features include 17-inch wheels, side mirrors with integrated turn signals, headlights with LED accents, cloth upholstery, steering wheel audio controls, and Bluetooth connectivity.

Kia Sorento 8 Generation (2011)

The 2011 Kia Sorento is much better than the previous generation. It debuts in one of the toughest market segments, battling not only compact crossovers like the Honda CR-V because of its price, but also larger crossovers like the Ford Edge because of its overall size. In terms of cost, interior quality, and performance, the Sorento is preferable to many of its competitors, but its rugged ride may spoil those simply looking for the high seating and cargo space that crossovers provide.

Kia Sorento 7 Generation (2009)

There are no significant changes to the Sorento for 2009.

Kia Sorento 6 Generation (2008)

Kia’s Sorento was the Korean automaker’s first foray into midsize sport utility vehicles. At less than 182 inches long, the Sorento technically is a compact SUV, but interior dimensions are comparatively closer to midsize SUVs such as the Toyota Highlander, Ford Explorer, and Toyota 4Runner. For 2008, there’s a new V-6 engine in the base LX Sorento.

Kia Sorento 5 Generation (2007)

For 2007, Kia bumped the Sorento’s V-6 engine up to 3.8 liters. That engine is still available on the up level EX, but LX models now have a new 3.3-liter V-6. Though Kia lists the same competitors as before, shoppers might also consider some recently upsized compact SUVs such as the Toyota RAV4 and Mitsubishi Outlander.

Kia Sorento 4 Generation (2006)

Automatic load leveling has been dropped as an option for the 2006 model year. New alloy wheels replace the prior steel units on LX models.

Kia Sorento 3 Generation (2005)

A new five-speed automatic went into 2005 models. At highway speeds, the transmission automatically downshifts to fourth gear when manual mode is engaged. The Sorento meets LEV-II emissions standards. Blacked-out headlights and side step bars are included in the Sport Package, which comes with a manual transmission.

Kia Sorento 2 Generation (2004)

Few changes, including a newly available manual gearbox and metallic interior accents that replace wood grain in the previous model, are on tap for the 2004 Sorento. A new Sport Package features side step bars, a roof rack, alloy wheels, and other extras.

Kia Sorento 1 Generation (2003)

Rear-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive versions are available. The four-wheel-drive models may be equipped with either part-time or full-time Torque-On-Demand operation. The Sorento comes in LX and upscale EX forms and competes against such SUVs as the Jeep Grand Cherokee, Nissan Pathfinder, and Toyota Highlander.
