  • The Sorento is a no-nonsense design that speaks to its rugged pretentions and with a solid on-road look. The industrial-style design of the exterior makes the luxury and functionality of the spacious interior and even greater counterpoint. The new Sorento is already a winner of multiple Car Of The Year awards

  • The Sorento fulfils its brief of providing comfortable seven-seat transport that can take the occupants to the edge of civilisation and a good degree past it. Car-like ride and handling is part of the extensive design brief that demanded the Sorento be as at home as a daily driver as it is putting the excitement and adventure into the weekend.

  • The new Sorento was awarded an ANCAP 5-star score of 36.62 out of a possible 37 _ one of the highest safety scores awarded to any style of vehicle in Australia. There is a full suite of passive and active safety systems.

  • Kia is cosistently in the top tier of quality and customer satisfaction ratings from companies such as JD Power.
