The 2023 Kia Sorento is a midsize SUV with a wide range of options. At its core, this is a vehicle with three rows of seating, plenty of cargo space, and interesting technology. Read on to learn more about its available hybrid powertrain, the rugged features of the X-Line, and smart cruise control capabilities before checking it out our Kia dealer in Salisbury, NC.
Third Row Seating
Your Sorento can be had with various seating options. If you need room for as many passengers as possible, you’ll want to consider a trim like the LX. In this option, the second row comes with bench seating for three people, providing room for seven passengers in total.
There are available second-row bench captain’s chairs, with standard reclining features. You’ll have plenty of legroom, and your second-row passengers will have 41.7 inches of space.
Cargo Space
You’ll have plenty of room for passengers and your belongings in the Sorento with 12.6 cubic feet of space behind the third row. With the second and third rows folded down, you can create 75.5 cubic feet of maximum cargo volume for everything you need to bring along.
An Available Hybrid Powertrain
The Sorento can be had with a gas-saving hybrid powertrain that generates up to 227 horsepower. This powerful option is long-lasting. In the EX trim with FWD, you have a total driving range of 655 miles.
Even better, this hybrid is fun to drive. The Sorento’s gears shift electronically through a full gearbox. For drivers, this means you have the full sensation you expect as you drive your SUV.
The Rugged X-Line
Do you love a car that can take you off the beaten path? You’ll want to consider the X-Line trim. This Sorento has an additional one inch of ground clearance for improved maneuverability. It also comes with center center-locking differential and torque-vectoring all-wheel drive.
If you need to bring along your outdoor gear, you’ll love the high-utility roof rails on this model. The X-Line also just looks more rugged, with fun exterior features like a unique X-line bumper in the front and rear. Additionally, you’ll have exclusive matte black lower-body cladding.
Smart Cruise Control
Kia’s available smart cruise control technology is based on navigation data. When the system sees a curve coming up on the road, it will automatically slow down and then speed up again once the curve is completed.
Additionally, this technology can be paired with Kia’s available highway driving assist feature. This feature will maintain your following distance. As the car you’re following brakes and accelerates, so will your Sorento.
There is still so much more to learn about the Sorento’s long list of amazing features. You’ll want to see its standard eight-inch touchscreen and comfortable seating options for yourself. Visit Randy Marion Kia now to see our wide selection of new vehicles.
