The redesigned 2021 Kia Sorento, stepping into its fourth generation, is a midsize SUV available in five trims—LX, S, EX, SX, and SX Prestige. It starts with a 2.5L engine that delivers 191-horsepower, and offers an optional turbo variant boosting output to 281-horsepower. Both are mated with an eight-speed automatic transmission, with FWD as standard and AWD available. Kia also introduces a hybrid powertrain for 2021, paired with a six-speed automatic. The Sorento comes loaded with tech features, including an 8-inch touchscreen (10.25-inch in higher-end trims), Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. Notable standard safety features encompass the Kia Drive Wise suite—forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, and lane keeping assist, among others.
