PROS Convenient size should fit many families Ample feature content for the money Stylish and quiet interior Extra-long warranty coverage
CONS Less cargo space than other three-row models Third-row seat is strictly for kids Lackluster acceleration even from the V6 engine
The 2020 Kia Sorento skimps on third-row seating, but in all other respects it’s a more than respectable crossover SUV.
Pros Upmarket feel inside and out Terrific ride quality Responsive, natural steering Strong value and warranty Solid, quiet feel
Cons Second row sits too low Don’t bother with the base engine Mediocre fuel economy
Changes are minimal on the 2020 Kia Sorento. There are modest styling updates front and rear, and Kia has consolidated the trim levels and packaging on V-6 models. The ritzy SX Limited and its lofty price are gone, but the one-step-down SX provides most of the important content. The standard navigation system on SX models now includes an integrated modem that allows you to control certain vehicle functions remotely and can notify you if you inadvertently leave a kid in the back seat.
Pros Simple interior layout, agreeable driving experience, seating for seven in a mid-size body.
Cons Difficult-to-access third row, numb steering, some safety features limited to upper trims.
