Is the 2022 Kia Sorento reliable?

Owners rate it 4.64/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback also highlights dependable day-to-day use, with comments about the Sorento feeling like a vehicle you can count on for family duties and regular driving. The expert evaluation reinforces that impression by describing the cabin as solidly built and noting that the SUV’s quality and design detail stand out even in more affordable versions.

Kia also backs the Sorento with a strong value proposition in the hybrid and plug-in hybrid variants, which can reduce running costs over the long term. For used buyers, the main ownership risk is making sure the specific trim and powertrain you choose matches your needs, since the base engine is less satisfying than the turbocharged and electrified options.

What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Kia Sorento?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base LX+ is the most stripped-down version, and the content notes that it lacks some of the comfort and feature content that makes higher trims more appealing. The cabin quality is strong across the range, but you’ll want to compare equipment carefully if you’re considering the entry trim.
• Powertrain: You can get the standard 2.5-litre four-cylinder, a turbocharged 2.5-litre four-cylinder, a hybrid powertrain, or a plug-in hybrid powertrain. The base engine is described as sluggish, while the turbo version is much more satisfying to drive.
• Safety package: The Sorento offers features such as rear-seat reminder, Junction Assist, Blind View Monitor on the SX, and Highway Driving Assist. Some features are trim-specific, so check carefully if you want the more advanced driver-assistance tech.
• Infotainment: LX+, LX Premium, X-Line, and EX use an 8-inch touchscreen, while other trims get a 10.25-inch display with navigation, satellite radio, Kia Connect services, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. Wireless smartphone integration is available on the base system, but the larger screen requires a cable for app connectivity.
• Fuel efficiency: The base engine is rated at 9.7 L/100 km combined, the turbo engine at 9.9 L/100 km combined, the hybrid at 6.6 L/100 km combined, and the plug-in hybrid at 3.0 Le/100 km combined after its electric range is used up.

Which 2022 Kia Sorento trim should I buy?

The 2022 Kia Sorento is offered in 4 trim levels: LX+, LX Premium, X-Line, and SX.

Here's the short version:

• LX+: This is the entry point, and it gives you the Sorento’s core family-SUV packaging at the lowest price. It’s the trim to consider if you want the basics and plan to keep your budget tight, but it’s also the one most likely to leave you wanting more equipment.
• LX Premium: This is the best-value choice for many shoppers because it adds useful everyday upgrades, including a wireless phone charger and more convenience-focused equipment. If you want a better-balanced Sorento without jumping too far up the price ladder, this is the trim to target.
• X-Line: This trim brings the more desirable turbocharged 2.5-litre engine, along with a more distinctive look and stronger road manners. It’s the right pick if you care more about driving feel and presence than simply getting the cheapest Sorento.
• SX: This is the most feature-rich version, with the most advanced equipment in the range, including the Blind View Monitor and the premium audio system. It suits you best if you want the fullest Sorento experience and are willing to pay for it.

The safety content also notes that the Sorento’s LED headlights received a Poor rating and that those headlights are standard on all trims in Canada, so that’s worth keeping in mind when you compare versions.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Kia Sorento?

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so you can shop with some patience and still find worthwhile options.

• Deal availability: 26.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 287 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 15.93% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $28,246 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 Kia Sorento's resale value?

The current average of $28,253 CAD sits slightly below last year's $33,605 CAD.

That price movement suggests the Sorento has already absorbed a meaningful amount of depreciation, which can be helpful if you’re buying now but less ideal if you’re planning to sell soon. For a future seller, the softer market means you may need to price competitively to stand out, especially if similar listings remain plentiful.

The good news is that the Sorento’s broad appeal as a family SUV, plus its strong owner satisfaction, should help support demand over time. Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.64/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2022 Kia Sorento safe?

The 2022 Sorento earns a Top Safety Pick rating from IIHS and a four-star overall crash-test rating from NHTSA. In frontal-impact testing, it gets four-star ratings for the driver and front passenger, and it also earns a four-star rating for rollover resistance; in all other NHTSA tests, it receives five-star ratings.

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

The Sorento includes features such as rear-seat reminder, Junction Assist, Blind View Monitor on the SX, and Highway Driving Assist, which combines adaptive cruise control and lane keeping assist to help manage speed and lane position. That said, the safety content also flags the LED headlights as the model’s weak point, with a Poor rating that applies to all trims in Canada.

Should I buy a 2022 Kia Sorento or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 26.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 15.93% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.64/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2022 stands out for the arrival of the Sorento Hybrid and Sorento Plug-in Hybrid in Canada, giving you more powertrain choice than the previous year.

The bottom line: If you want the Sorento with the newest powertrain options and a market that has already moved lower on price, the 2022 is the better year to target. If you’re mainly shopping on budget and want to compare against older or newer listings, you can use the softened pricing as leverage and focus on the trim and powertrain that best match your needs.
