The 2021 Kia Sorento crossover finds a new look but the same mission: it’s the smaller hauler compared to the Telluride.

The all-new Sorento is expected to make its debut at the Geneva auto show in March. Disguised and undisguised spy photos and several official images of the Kia have given us a pretty good idea of what to expect from the redesigned mid-size crossover. Its boxier proportions and bolder styling mark a stark departure from the curvier and softer appearance of the current Sorento. The Korean automaker has also said that the next-gen model will ride on an all-new platform that helps make it bigger inside and out. It will also feature a hybrid powertrain as well as an eventual plug-in variant.
Jaguar updates the 2021 E-Pace lineup with some fresh styling inside and out, as well as several newly available features.

Inside, a larger 11.4-inch curved touchscreen running Jaguar's new Pivi Pro infotainment system is now available. Likewise, a digital rearview mirror joins the option sheet.
