This car had it all: good gas mileage, sporty, lots of leg room in the front and the back, as well as lots of trunk room for sports equipment. Great car for a growing and active family. It is one of the cheapest cars on the market that seats 7 people comfortably. Even when the third row is in use, there is still a small amount of trunk room -- much more than others similar to the Sorrento. The car's overall length worked well for me because of its roomy feel and the fact that it would still fit easily into my garage at home. The keyless entry was a plus. I loved driving my Kia because it handled much more like a car than a mid-size SUV in my opinion. The V6 engine seems peppy. The climate controls are very much in sync with you and adjusts the settings based on your preferences.

I was excited to go from a minivan, which we had many of over the years, to this SUV. I do miss the room I had in my minivan, but I love my Sorento. It is easy to drive and comfortable. We can easily fit seven people when we need to. It rides very nicely. We haven't had any issues with it. Over the winter, the AWD works great in the snow. We have put many miles on this SUV since we've had it, and there have been no major issues. Just the normal check ups, etc. It has many bells and whistles, which I love. The front seats have seat warmers. I can warm up the steering wheel, which is really awesome, and something I use a lot in the winter. In the summer, I can cool off the driver's seat, which is very nice on those hot days. The stereo system is awesome. Somebody always needs to charge a phone, and there are a few phone chargers throughout the car. I'm very happy with my Sorento and would definitely consider buying another one when the time comes.
