KBB.com Review
Kbb.com Expert Rating
The 2012 Kia Sorento promises a lot and never fails to deliver. It’s attractive, versatile, fuel-efficient, affordable, reliable, and it has one of the nicest interiors we’ve seen in this category in a long time.
About the only negative we can think of regarding the 2012 Kia Sorento SUV is that it can’t be taken off-roading (a Nissan Xterra is better suited for that) and its ability to tow is limited to 3,500 pounds.
