What You Should Know About the Kia Sorento HybridHave you considered going green this year? Discover the hybrid version of Kia’s popular midsize three-row SUV. It’s the ideal way to forge new experiences while leaving a smaller carbon footprint. Here’s a sneak peek at everything you should know about the Sorento Hybrid.

 

Turbo-Powered Adventures

The Sorento HEV is available in either S or EX trims. Both variants deliver all the power you want to go farther, thanks to the innovative combination of an electric motor and a spirited turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine. It’s the most powerful hybrid in its class with 227 combined system horsepower and 258 pound-feet torque. Go the distance with a range of up to 655 miles and a best-in-class 37 combined mpg.

Outstanding Performance

Unlike rivals, the Sorento Hybrid wire-shifts through a full gearbox to deliver an exhilarating feeling. Hit the pedal and revel in the instantly available torque you can only get out of a turbocharged hybrid. It’ll launch you forward into your next new adventure.

What’s more, you won’t have to stop charging up. This SUV sails right past the plug, thanks to the power of regenerative braking. Customize your experience with four drive modes that adjust the throttle response and gearshift points. You can dial in more power or conserve your charge when you’re cruising along.

 

Confidence Inspiring Safety Features

Avoid life’s obstacles with the Sorento Hybrid’s standard driver assistance features. They inspire confidence behind the wheel with technology like auto emergency braking. Blindspot collision avoidance will signal you when another vehicle is in your blind spot, and a rear occupant alert will remind you that someone is in the rear seat when you exit your SUV. Standard forward-collision assistance can detect oncoming traffic while you’re turning through an intersection, and smart cruise control maintains a safe distance from the vehicle ahead.

 

Ample Seating and Cargo Space

The Sorento Hybrid touts six-passenger seating on durable Syntex upholstery. Its second-row, reclining captain’s chairs also slide forward with the touch of a button for seamless access to the third row. Fold this row over and reveal a maximum of 75.5 cubic feet of cargo room. Take advantage of the 50/50 split-folding third-row to expand the storage area when you’re not loaded with passengers. Kia’s available smart power liftgate automatically pops open to provide hands-free access to the Sorento Hybrid’s dual-level cargo floor. It’s the ideal place to stow tall items and to hide valuables.

 

Modern Technology

You’ll love all the modern technology Kia loaded into this modern SUV. Its 8-inch touch screen offers wireless interfacing with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The efficiency display provides you with real-time vehicle updates, including energy generation and flow between the drivetrain and the battery. Everyone can bring their devices along because this hybrid features eight USB outlets and a wireless charger. Go ahead and upgrade with the rear entertainment system. You won’t be sorry.
