The owner feedback points to a dependable, trouble-free ownership experience overall, with praise for the Sorento’s modern design, family-friendly features, and strong fuel economy.

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

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base LX+ model is the one most likely to feel short on features and comfort, while LX Premium adds a wireless phone charger and more convenience equipment. Higher trims bring more upscale touches, and the SX stands out for its premium audio and blind-view camera system.
• Powertrain: The standard 2.5-litre four-cylinder is the least satisfying option, while the turbocharged 2.5-litre is the stronger choice if you want more responsive performance. Hybrid and plug-in hybrid versions are also available if efficiency matters most.
• Safety package: The Sorento offers a broad safety suite, including rear-seat reminder, Junction Assist, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, and Highway Driving Assist. The Blind View Monitor is exclusive to the SX.
• Infotainment: LX+, LX Premium, X-Line, and EX use an 8-inch touchscreen, while other versions get a 10.25-inch display with navigation, satellite radio, Kia Connect services, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. The larger screen requires a cable for app connectivity.
• Fuel efficiency: Natural Resources Canada says to expect 9.7 L/100 km with the base engine and 9.9 L/100 km with the turbo engine in combined driving. The hybrid is rated at 6.6 L/100 km, and the plug-in hybrid returns 3.0 Le/100 km in combined driving.

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 strengths at the lowest price, but it is also the trim most likely to feel sparse if you want more comfort and convenience.
• LX Premium: This is the best-value choice if you want a more complete everyday setup, thanks to added convenience features such as a wireless phone charger and more equipment without jumping too far up the range.
• X-Line: This is the trim to choose if you want the stronger turbocharged 2.5-litre engine and a more assertive presence, making it the better pick for buyers who care about performance and style.
• SX: This is the most feature-rich choice, with the premium audio system and Blind View Monitor, so it suits you best if you want the most upscale Sorento experience.

The safety package is broad across the range, but the Blind View Monitor is exclusive to the SX.

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

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so you have room to shop carefully without expecting every listing to be a bargain.

• Deal availability: 30.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 305 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 14.22% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $28,097 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 $28,097 CAD sits slightly below last year's $32,755 CAD.

That price movement suggests the Sorento has become more accessible for used buyers, which can also mean a softer starting point for future resale if you buy at today’s average. If you purchase well below the current average, you may have a better chance of limiting depreciation over your ownership period. Strong demand for family-friendly SUVs with available hybrid and plug-in hybrid options should help support interest over time.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.67/5, 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 the IIHS and a four-star overall crash-test rating from NHTSA. In frontal-impact testing, it receives four-star ratings for the driver and front passenger, and it also earns a four-star rating for rollover resistance. In all other NHTSA assessments, it gets five-star ratings.

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

The Sorento’s safety equipment includes rear-seat reminder, Junction Assist, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, and Highway Driving Assist. Highway Driving Assist is a Level 2 semi-autonomous system that helps maintain speed and lane position while still requiring you to keep your hands on the wheel.

One caveat is that the LED headlights receive a Poor rating from the IIHS, and that result 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:

• 30.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 14.22% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.67/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2022 stands out for the arrival of the Sorento Hybrid in Canada and the debut of the Sorento Plug-in Hybrid.

The bottom line: The 2022 Sorento is a smart choice if you want the redesigned look, strong owner satisfaction, and the added appeal of hybrid and plug-in hybrid options. If you are especially price-sensitive, you may want to compare nearby model years and focus on the best-equipped listings that fall below the current average.
