2026 KIA Sorento S

The 2026 Kia Sorento is a mid-size three-row SUV that slots between the compact Sportage and the larger Telluride in Kia's lineup. It competes with family haulers like the Honda Pilot, Toyota Highlander, and Hyundai Santa Fe, offering a balance of style and practicality. The Sorento drives with a composed, car-like feel, and the turbo engine provides strong acceleration for merging and passing. Inside, the cabin is well-built and spacious, with comfortable seating for up to seven and a user-friendly infotainment system. Its 2.5L Gas Direct Injection (GDI) 4-Cyl Engine makes 191 horsepower and pairs with the eight-speed automatic, sending power to all four wheels via standard all-wheel drive with selectable terrain modes. It rides on 18-inch alloy wheels and includes roof rails, giving it a practical look without the off-road pretensions of the X-Line trims above it.
