Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

All-new plug-in hybrid model

Pros
Impressive number of standard and optional features
Lots of second- and third-row legroom for the class
Sharp-looking and easy-to-use infotainment system

Cons
Not as compact as the last-generation Sorento

By: 
edmunds.com

A plug-in-hybrid model joins the Sorento lineup for the 2022 model year. Its powertrain combines a turbocharged four-cylinder and six-speed automatic transmission with an electric motor for a total system output of 261 horsepower. All-wheel drive is standard, and Kia claims the plug-in Sorento has a combined fuel-economy rating of 79 MPGe and an electric-only range of 32 miles. While we don't know how much the PHEV variant will cost, we know it'll be offered in two top-tier trims: SX and SX-P.

Pros
Looks classy and rugged inside and out,
lots of powertrain options,
pleasant to drive,
and comfy to ride in.

Cons
Adults should avoid the third row,
bigger touchscreen skips wireless smartphone mirroring,
cargo space can be compromised.

The Mercedes-AMG GLB 35 takes the small-yet-practical GLB and adds much more power and four-wheel drive. Just don’t go thinking passengers in the back will enjoy any full-bore starts.

Pros
Stylish looks
High-class cabin
Impressively quick

Cons
Less fun than a hot-hatch
Cramped third row of seats
Alternatives have bigger boots

By: 
carwow.co.uk

For 2021 A more powerful AMG GLB 35 debuts.

Pros
Spacious for both passengers and cargo
Strong overall performance
Exceptional ride and seat comfort
Lots of the latest tech and convenience features

Cons
GLB 250 isn't particularly exciting to drive
Options can quickly run the cost up

By:

Nothing says niche quite like a prestige, seven-seat, medium SUV with a dedicated performance skew. Does the Mercedes-AMG GLB35 rise above pigeonholing?

Pros
Spacious and fancy cabin
Fast
Smart touches throughout

Cons
High ticket price
No space-saving wheel
Lacks some driver-assist systems
