Kia Sorento Review

Kia Sorento Review

The new Kia Sorento went on sale in January 2010, but curiously, the all-new car was designed far from UK shores - but not where you might.

It started life at the Kia Design Studios in California far away from the gloomy winter we've just experienced. The Chief Designer Officer, Peter Schreyer was in charge of proceedings and his brief was to take into account the way that SUVs and their users have changed in recent years.

A little more urban and a lot less agricultural is what was required; not that the previous Kia Sorento resembled a tractor but did have more off-road capabilities the new version. So the new Kia Sorento has been re-designed from the ground up in order to appeal mainly to the 'Yummy Mummies'of this world while still retaining, to some degree, the towing and off-road capabilities, should they be needed.

The easiest way to please both groups was for Kia to offer the new Kia Sorento in both 2- and 4WD and with a choice of five or seven seats so it crosses over into MPV territory. And, in keeping it simple, Kia is offering an engine choice of just two; a 2.4 petrol unit and a 2.2 diesel, more of which later.
