If you like the idea of maximizing your infotainment and seating capabilities while keeping vehicle size and price in check, you're going to like the more refined, mostly new 2014 Kia Sorento.
If you need three rows on a regular basis, or need room enough for six or seven people and more than a couple duffel bags at the same time, you'll probably be better served by a more traditionally
What the 2014 Kia Sorento gives up in interior volume to its larger competitors, it gains in everyday maneuverability. The Sorento is seven inches shorter than a Honda Pilot, with a shorter wheelbase and tighter turning radius, making the Kia easier to navigate into and out of the many parking spaces it's likely to visit on a daily basis. Out on the road, the Sorento's new 290-horsepower V6 and smooth-shifting 6-speed automatic transmission combine to deliver responsive, seamless acceleration. Our very first taste of the revised Sorento

"This car was a preowned car. It was a rental prior to purchasing the car. I bought it with 35,000 miles. I love the car. Have not encountered no problems at all. I drive to and from work 35 miles minimun Monday to Friday. For the whole week it only takes 1/2 a tank. That is a excellent gas saver. I truly recomend this car. Going on 2 yrs and still runs beautifully.Original tires after 2 yrs and still new."

"After some months searching I came upon the Kia Sorento. I was very impressed with this vehicle. My wife and I looked at all the Models- LX, EX, SX, SXL. We had some initial concerns with the Kia reliability reputation, but we took a risk. We ended up with an SXL, and having driven the Sorento for a week, we are loving Car. Well done Kia! Drives quiet, the breaks work great, the Infotainment is very cool. Interior was comfortable. The electronic features are all very useful. No issues with reliability so far. I saw no point in getting the V4 as the mileage is not much better than the V6. The third row seat was more of a nice to have, but if you plan on using all the time, it may not be ideal. The MPG was just okay for a V6 around town. It gets much better on the freeway with ECO mode enabled. Overall, I'd recommend this comfortable, stylish car."
