With the recently launched Kia Seltos and the large Telluride making waves in different parts of the world, Kia is continuing its strong expansion in the crossover arena. The fourth-generation 2021 Kia Sorento was already revealed for Asian markets, but more details have been released with the debut of the U.S. version.
Kia Motors Corporation has revealed the first official images of the new Kia Sorento, ahead of its first public appearance at the 2020 Geneva International Motor Show in March, which will be followed by a regional launch in the Middle East soon.
At the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show, Kia showed the 2018 Sorento facelift for Europe. South Korea, its home market, received the facelifted 2018 Sorento a few weeks ago. As it is just a mid-life refresh, the changes just include updated bumpers and minor tweaks in the design of the lights.
Kia has given their mid-size SUV, Sorento, a mid-cycle facelift in its home market, South Korea. This refresh for the 2018 Sorento includes a bunch of subtle visual changes on the exterior as well as the interior. A new set of full-LED headlamps are accompanied by a set of “ice-cube” LED fog lights. The grill and the bumper are also tweaked a bit to complete the fascia update at the front.
Kia has been on a roll of late, with model after model being launched, to much fanfare. Their latest midsize crossover offering is the redesigned Kia Sorento, and it could very well be the best car in its segment.
The 2015 Middle East Car Of the Year (MECOTY) concluded recently with the results being announced at a gala dinner held at the Raffles Hotel in Dubai. The final winners were decided by totalling the scores of a jury panel from 12 different publications around the Middle East, including DriveArabia.com. Individual awards were given to cars according to their categories, with the main 2015 Middle East Car Of The Year award going to the Ford Mustang.
The Kia Sorento was never a serious contender in the crossover stakes, largely because it was one of the last holdovers from the “old” generation of Kia before ex-Audi designer Peter Schreyer took over and transformed the model line with more desirable styling. The all-new 2015 Kia Sorento finally gets that upgrade.
Kia recently unveiled the all-new 2015 Sorento at the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show. It is longer and wider in size than the outgoing model, thereby having more interior room.
