Mechanical/Safety - Kia Sorento specs in Lancaster

On the L and LX trims, Kia installs a 2.4-liter inline 4-cylinder engine with 185 horsepower and 178 lb-ft of torque. It is pinned to a 6-speed automatic transmission. The S V6, EX, and SX go with a 3.3-liter V6 that produces 290 horsepower and 252 lb-ft of torque and is pinned to an 8-speed automatic gearbox. Front-wheel drive is standard on all trims, but you can upgrade to the all-wheel-drive system with a locking center differential and torque vectoring cornering control if you get any trim above the L. Peak fuel economy on the Sorento is estimated at 22 mpg in the city and 29 mpg on the highway—that is, if you go with the L or LX. However, if outstanding all-weather driving performance is more important to you, go with the all-wheel-drive system, which also increases maximum towing capacity from 2,000 lbs. to 3,500 lbs. A MacPherson strut front suspension and a multi-link rear suspension absorb road imperfections for a smooth ride. Motor-driven power steering provides sharp and precise turning and cornering. And four-wheel disc brakes ensure that stopping is almost immediate.

The airbag system on the Sorento consists of dual frontal impact airbags, dual front seat-mounted side impact airbags, and dual roof-mounted side curtain airbags. Other standard safety features include a rearview camera, electronic stability control, traction control, hill start assist control, ABS, electronic brake-force distribution, brake assist, and downhill brake control. The LX trim level is where Kia introduces driver-assistance tech: with blind spot collision warning and rear cross-traffic alert. On the S V6, blind spot collision warning is upgraded to a collision avoidance system with forward collision avoidance, and rear parking assist enhances the camera’s functionality. Driver attention warning, forward collision warning, lane departure warning, lane keeping assist, pedestrian detection, front parking assist, a surround-view camera (instead of the rearview one), and smart cruise control with stop-and-go technology are added on the EX and SX.

Key Features

Now in its third generation of production, the Kia Sorento goes into the 2020 model year with a leaner, more streamlined trim lineup, which now consists of the L, LX, S V6, EX, and SX. It still has its straddling nature; it is one of the growing number of midsize crossover SUVs with three rows of seats. And Kia stuffs it with a multitude of interior amenities that make it very comfortable and safe. Also worthy of mention is its robust warranty, which consists of a five-year/60,000-mile basic warranty and a 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty. Indeed, the 2020 Sorento is one of the more valuable vehicles in its class.
