The first-generation 2003-2009 Sorento was a truck-based go-anywhere sport-utility but it was completely re-engineered with a totally new structure for 2011. It's 600 pounds lighter than its truck-based predecessor yet it's roomier in most interior dimensions and offers greater cargo capacity.During our test drive we found the latest Sorento quiet its rigid structure providing an impressive feeling of sturdiness. The suspension is nicely tuned to muffle rough pavement. On winding roads it feels decently agile and easy to control with perfect steering feel.The base engine is a 2.4-liter four-cylinder with port fuel injection.

The top-line V6 delivers spirited performance putting the Sorento at or near the front of its class although EPA estimates drop to 18/24 mpg with AWD.The exterior styling of the Kia Sorento is crisp freshly contemporary. Looking over its uniformly accurate body-panel gaps suggests Kia is paying close attention to the industry's ever-higher build-quality standards.2012 Kia Sorento EX models come with a new voice-activated infotainment system called UVO based on the Microsoft Windows Embedded Automotive platform. 2012 Sorento models with cloth upholstery come standard with new YES Essentials fabrics which provide anti-bacterial anti-soil and anti-static properties.

A 6-speed automatic transmission is standard on all 2012 Kia Sorento models.While not intended as an off-road vehicle a four-wheel-drive Sorento with its 7.5-inch ground clearance would be happy to head out over open desert with no thought of turning back.
