Why it stands out

The 2016 Kia Sorento marked a clear step up in size and presence, growing 19 centimetres longer than the first generation and 10 cm longer than the second generation. Its styling was more rounded, and it moved closer in size and stature to what is considered a midsize SUV today. That larger footprint helped make it feel more substantial, while the improved interior quality and increased passenger space gave it a more polished, family-friendly character than earlier Sorentos.

It also stood out for the breadth of its powertrain and equipment choices. The base LX trim came with a 185 hp 2.4-litre four-cylinder engine, while a 240 hp turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder was available at each trim level, and a 290 hp 3.3-litre V6 returned for all three-row models. A six-speed automatic transmission was standard, front-wheel drive was standard, and all-wheel drive was standard on EX and SX models and optional on the LX trim. Heated front seats were standard in Canada, and the Sorento also offered advanced safety and convenience features such as rear parking sensors, forward collision and lane-departure warnings, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. For buyers wanting a used SUV with a strong feature count and a more mature feel, that combination was a major part of its appeal.

There were still some compromises. The base four-cylinder engine was described as too weak for the larger Sorento, and the third row was more accommodating than before but still best left to kids. Fuel economy varied by engine, with the base four-cylinder estimated at between 9.6 and 10.5 litres per 100 kilometres combined, the turbo 2.0-litre at between 10.3 and 11.0 L/100 km combined, and the V6 at between 11.1 and 12.2 L/100 km combined. Even so, the 2016 Sorento remained attractive because it delivered more space, better materials, and a wider spread of equipment than many buyers would expect at its price point.
