I read more often in car magazines that the design is perceived by the new sportier than the predecessor model. How do you see it? I would not call the new design more sporty than the predecessor. “Glubschige” headlights and the “thick cheeks” around the fog lights look more plumper and spherical for me than the pre-model; anything but sporty. In my opinion, the bull stickers have always taken good care of the predecessor. Hippopotamus stickers fit.

Hi, I’m about to buy a new car and for that I looked at the new Kia Sorento and also tried it (Platinum). The enormous outside size was already very impressive, it looks very long and a bit thick, a little like an American SUV. Also from the inside it is really “spacious”. The leather seats are comforable and the touch feel very good for all buttons, materials etc. Only the plastic on the dashboard that has a plastic seam and thus a I didn’t find anything like leather to look like. So I started and the good feeling continued. The engine is Kernig and has enough (for me) power. All kinds of toys distract a little bit, but you have everything under control quickly. The Navidisplay is nice and the computer is sufficiently fast. The sound system of Infitinity was very good and probably leaves no wish for improvement. Also otherwise we liked the car very well and read (also for my wife) well drive, even if she doesn’t really like big cars. We’re about to order now Greetings Walter

My father-in-law is about to decide to order a Sorento. He also configures a little bit back and forth and is not completely conclusive. He likes the Sorento without leather seats, which I can also understand. But then it would have to be a set-up vision. I think he is not quite wrong that the surcharge of approx. 5000 € between vision and spirit for something he doesn’t want (leather seats and larger wheels) is too high. The first question is the xenon at the current Sorento Bi- Xenon, or does it have H7 in it for the high beam? Can someone express themselves to the sorento without Xenon. I privately drive a C-class with Bi- Xenon and Intelligent Light System. As a service car I have a walking dune (golf 6 with 80 hp) without Xenon. At night I don’t feel the H7 of the golf around such worlds worse than the system with Xenon in Benz. How do you feel the lower part of the golfer’s life? chied between Sorento with Xenon and Sorento without Xenon. Please no discussion on the topic „everyone feels differently, that is already clear to me. I’m concerned about whether you can get happy with the H 7 in Sorento. Nice greeting Clive PS: did not stone me if the topic was already there… I didn’t find anything about it.

Hello first to the KIA municipality! I have been driving my new Sorento in the Platinum version for two weeks now and am so far quite satisfied with the car. The predecessor was also Sorento XM, which I had 4 years and was also quite happy with the KIA. The new one is of course a lot more modern and also drives for lengths better. One thing, however, makes me create and this concerns the front collision warning. According to brochure and equipment list, the Platinum version about the However, there is no description of how or where this can be switched on or off or adjusted. In my previous journeys I have not yet experienced it in function and that, although I have already driven some rather risky maneuvers only to see if there is something happening. According to the brochure, the collision alarm should warn of a collision accident, acoustically and optically but nothing is happening! Unfortunately, the dealer can not give me the correct information and me nt only that the car does not report any mistakes. Does one of you have any idea how the system works or under what circumstances it even appears? Or maybe someone has already experienced how or what it does before driving in the front man. Best regards Bombex45

I’m looking for an SUV, only the sport is in question. My question is only which engine I take : Should a diesel with automatic, now only the decision between 136 or 184 hp ? What do you have for experience, is the extra price of about 1800 euros worth, or are the more PS not very noticeable ?? And what can you tell me about chip tuning ? A dealer says that you have no problems with the chip and the warranty, because the chip with one handle out And even with a reading device nothing is recognized. The other dealer says that it can be informed and the guarantee revealed ?? Hope you can give me tips !! mfg

Hello dear people, I plan to buy a KIA for the first time. The Sorento 3 will be available in Platinum with heating, 7 seats, trailer coupling in paint metal stream. The list price is about 56,500€. Less discount, however, still remains a decent rod money. I think that in 2015 the cars are technically ready, that they do not have all the noses long in the workshop. KIA offers the 7 years warranty. For this I now have some and auc many of the posts are already older and therefore I would like to re-roll the topic to learn about current experiences of the last 1-2 years from you. Of course, it would be best if I read only positive things, which would only strengthen me in my purchase decision. I also know that all other manufacturers can be more or less customer-friendly and that also all other times have problems with quality. n. I am simply concerned with whether there is an extraordinary accumulation of defects and / or warranty or warranty problems at KIA. Thank you for your factual information.
