Looking for a new car? Kia Motors is a leader in car manufacturing, and the 2021 Kia Sorento is a testament to that. Here are just a few things that drivers love about this car.
Why Drivers Love the 2021 Kia Sorento
The Basics of the 2021 Sorento
The Kia has gone through a few changes this year. While past versions of the Kia Sorento have relied on smooth, sleek lines, the 2021 Sorento is all about a more muscular and durable aesthetic. This is a car that works hard—and looks like it, too.
Kia Motors, based out of South Korea, is known for its functional, stylish cars. The 2021 Sorento, a 3-row SUV, is no exception.
Pricing
The basic 2021 Sorento, the LX, will cost you about $29,835, but you do have other options besides that. One step up from the LX you have the S, which costs around $32,335, and then the EX which will run you around $35,435. Finally, the last two options are the SX, which goes for around $38,435, and then the SX Prestige for $41,035.
No matter which model you go with, you might want to consider adding on Kia’s all-wheel-drive option, especially if you live in colder climates where it gets damp or icy. It’s only an additional $1,800—well worth the price for that extra control and safety.
Performance
This car is all about getting the job done and getting the job done right. The Sorento has gone through a few upgrades this year to make it even more functional.
The base vehicle comes with a 191-horsepower 2.5-liter engine, but you can upgrade to a 281-horsepower turbocharged 2.5-liter engine. If you’ve got something heavy to tow, don’t worry. The 2021 Sorento can tow up to 3,500 pounds.
Interior and Comfort
It’s one thing to have a functional car, but if it’s not comfortable to be in you won’t want to be in it for long. Luckily, the 2021 Sorento is all about comfort. The real leather upholstery feels good to sit in and offers a classy look to the inside of the vehicle. There’s also lots of room for storage, and the second-row seats can be moved or folded over for even more storage options.
The base vehicle comes with an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system that you can connect easily to your Apple or Android phone. If 8 inches isn’t big enough for you, you can also upgrade to the 12-inch option.
Safety
With any vehicle, safety is one of the most important aspects. The 2021 Sorento’s safety features are top of the line and work hard to protect you. The standard Sorento comes with Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist, along with Blind Spot Assist and Safe Exit Assist. The fame of the vehicle itself is made of lightweight but durable steel, and there are airbags throughout.
The 2021 Sorento is a fantastic car. Whether you’re looking for a vehicle to take on adventures, or you just need something reliable for your daily commute, the Kia Sorento has got you covered.
