Cons: Cramped, hard-to-access 3rd-row seats; pricey option packages drive up prices in a hurry; 4-cylinder engine strains to provide adequate performance[/vc_column_text][mk_divider style=”padding_space” margin_top=”10″ margin_bottom=”10″][vc_column_text]CG Says: After a significant freshening for 2014, the Kia Sorento sees only a few changes of note for 2015. The front-grille detailing is revised, the latest version of Kia’s UVO infotainment system has been added, and Kia says the four-cylinder engine has been updated to provide better fuel economy. Sorento rides and handles well, aided by tidy-for-the-class exterior dimensions. A strong warranty, many available upscale features, polished road manners, and good all-around utility add to its appeal. The cramped, hard-to-reach 3rd-row seat still disappoints, but you can say the same for most like-equipped rivals. The Sorento merits serious consideration if you’re looking for a capable, high-value midsize crossover.[/vc_column_text][mk_divider style=”padding_space” margin_top=”10″ margin_bottom=”10″][mk_content_box heading=”The Facts”][mk_table el_class=”new-review-specs”]
