We love the Kia Sorento so much we purchased a 2025 three weeks ago. Got the SX Prestige too. Blue exterior with blue/grey interior. Love this car! I had a neck injury and it's hard to check the blind spot and this car has a blind spot camera which works great with my injury. Fantastic car for the $ too. You really get a lot of nice tech and. luxury items on this car. Love it !!
Great! Glad you’re enjoying it. Thanks for tuning in and sharing. Much appreciated.
All blue. Nice!! I haven’t seen one in the dealership yet but the colors look different in the website and UA-cam videos.
I wish they had the hybrid available with 7 seats.
Yes it is the Best! Yes, I bought one and have been loving it. A new surprise wonderful feature every day I drive it! The Hybrid is simply Superb!
Congrats! Glad you’re enjoying it. Thanks for tuning in.
Thanks for the thorough review. One feature that's missing (but important for me): Heads-up display (HUD). Whats up with that? The 2024 Santa Fe Calligraphy Hybrid has it!
Great review on a 25' top trim Sorento Hybrid!!! Can't find a 25' anywhere yet....apparently CNJ has them. So much bang for your buck w/ the Hybrid Sorento! Rides Great, Tons of Tech, Pana roof , Vented Leather Seats, Looks great...etc, etc. Ton of Value at $48k with EVERYTHING you get, including 34mpg, in 24'/25'! Thanks for this review.....only question is, do I save some $$$$ and get the 25' Sportage Hybrid SX Prestige?
Thanks so much! I loved driving this one. They did a great job on it. Thank you for tuning in and the support. Much appreciated.
Mike what a great review. Love this KIA Sorrento! That blue interior looks great! Mileage with the Hybrid power plant is awesome. Loaded with all the features most individuals would want for 48K. WOW! What a great value!
Thanks Anthony. I love the interior. They did a great job!
The second row seat is bummer. long trip wouldn't be conformable. like seating in the airplane. would be grat if have an option with the banch seat
Lots to Like with this 25 Sorrento Hybrid. A few shortcomings that I note: No HUD (Zonk); No Electric steering wheel adjustment (Zonk); woluld have liked separate buttons / knobs for Climate controls. Does the Remote Start engage climate controls to include rear window and mirrors defrosters, engage the heated steering wheel, and run the climate controls automatically? Of course in winter time. Does the Sorrento allow you to open all the windows and moonroof remotely ? I would compare the Hybrid to the ICE top of the line model too. At $48-49K - look like a great value.
Yes, it is really nice. Great interior and features. Headlamp configuration is a bit "over the top"..jarring and overdone. Such a sea of suvs out there. H-K are really turning out some nice vehicles now..the old jokes are over! Think I would rather have a modestly equipped Telluride instead..or save my hard earned cash and get a base Sportage or Tucson front driver. Yeah..surely some feature trade offs for price, but the "value quotient" then soars.
Excellent review..nothing new with that!!
Thanks Louis! I love that Dust Blue interior.
Why can't I get a turbo prestige without the Xline crap?!
Very Fine Review. Choose the newer 2025 Sorento Hybrid over the 2024 Santa Fe Hybrid with it's BOXY styling! (Yikes!) Get the full Panoramic Sunroof (largest in the industry) in the Sorento as well!
Thanks! Thank you for tuning in. Much appreciated.
Thanks for an excellent review. Does check all the bells and whistles EXCEPT for HUD. 😢 Love the color combo. Going with the smaller and less expensive Hyundai 2025 Tucson Hybrid gets similar MPG and HUD, but not the digital rear view mirror. The Santa Fe Calligraphy has it all, but just a tad more expensive. Have to hand it to Korea - great choices! And can't forget about the upcoming Carnival Hybrid at similar price point and MPG but with amazing cargo capacity and HUD and Digital mirror. Wow.
Thanks! They are hitting on all cylinders right now. Thank you for tuning in and the feedback. Much appreciated. 👍
Great review~ the Kia Carnival is coming out with a similar drivetrain in a few months (with more electric power)~ I hope you get to review it!
Thanks! Me too. I’m keeping my eye out. Thanks for watching.
Nice vehicle. Love the blue interior! Not everyone wants red. My criticism has always been, no bench seat for the 2nd row on higher trims. I’d go with this over the Santa Fe, like a traditional look more.
I really like it. I agree with you on the looks. Thanks for the support as always. 👍
Only 4 star crash test?
Was that the stock rear view mirror or an add on?
Thank you
The digital rear view mirror is an SX Prestige add.
$48K ? Yikes.
