Is the 2024 Kia Sorento a good car?

The 2024 Kia Sorento earns an 8.7/10 from our experts.

The model scores 9/10 across Form and function, Cost effectiveness, Technology, and Safety.

It fits you well if you want a value-focused family SUV with a standard third row, updated tech, and a more upscale look than many rivals. The trade-offs are clear: the third row is cramped, and the base engine is underwhelming. Even so, the 2024 update brings major infotainment and safety improvements, plus a new X-Pro trim for added capability.

With 36.4% of listings priced as good or great deals, the market still offers some attractive shopping opportunities.

Is the 2024 Kia Sorento reliable?

The 2024 Kia Sorento is positioned as a solid, family-focused SUV with updated systems and a strong value proposition. Its expert review highlights a more future-proof infotainment setup, more standard and optional safety systems than before, and generally well-performing driver-assistance tech.

The performance notes also point to a clear split between the base engine and the turbocharged setup: the base 2.5-litre four-cylinder is described as overmatched by the Sorento’s heft, while the turbocharged version feels lively and offers strong passing power. Kia also says its adaptive cruise control systems are now better able to learn from driver behaviour over time, with improved sensors intended to keep following distances more precise.

For long-term ownership, the main risk for used buyers is choosing a version that feels underpowered or overequipped for your needs, especially if you plan to keep it for many years.

What should I look for when buying a used 2024 Kia Sorento?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The LX, EX, X-Line, X-Line Limited, and X-Pro each bring different equipment and styling. The base models do not get all the fixings, while the X-Line Limited and X-Pro add twin 12.3-inch displays and a more upscale cabin feel.
• Powertrain: The base 2.5-litre four-cylinder makes 191 horsepower and is described as underwhelming. EX and higher models use a turbocharged 2.5-litre with 281 horsepower and 311 pound-feet of torque, which is much more satisfying.
• Safety package: Kia’s suite includes adaptive cruise control with stop and go, forward automatic emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection, lane-following and lane-keeping assist, rear cross-traffic alert with emergency braking, and blind-spot monitoring. Navigation-based adaptive cruise control is available, Highway Driving Assist is available, and Highway Driving Assist 2 with automated lane changes is reserved for the top two trims.
• Infotainment: All trims use a 12.3-inch screen integrated into a single-pane display. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard, and the system can receive over-the-air updates. X-Line Limited and X-Pro get a second 12.3-inch digital display.
• Fuel efficiency: The non-turbo gas powertrain earns 9.4 L/100 km combined, while the turbocharged version returns 10.3 L/100 km combined.

Which 2024 Kia Sorento trim should I buy?

The 2024 Kia Sorento is offered in 5 trim levels: LX, EX, X-Line, X-Line Limited, and X-Pro.

Here's the short version:

• LX: This is the entry point, but the base 2.5-litre engine is the weakest part of the lineup and is best for shoppers who care most about price.
• EX: This is the best-value trim because it adds the turbocharged engine, which makes the Sorento feel much more capable without jumping to the top end.
• X-Line: Choose this if you want the more rugged look and the added capability that comes with the X-Line treatment.
• X-Line Limited: This is the better pick if you want the richer cabin, twin 12.3-inch displays, and more of the premium equipment.
• X-Pro: This is the most capable choice, with all-terrain tyres, improved cooling, higher towing capacity, and the most adventurous hardware in the lineup.

Kia’s safety suite is a major strength, and the top two trims add Highway Driving Assist 2 with automated lane changes.

The current average of $37,690 CAD sits slightly below last year's $41,049 CAD.

That price movement suggests the Sorento has become more approachable for used buyers than it was a year ago. If you buy well now, you may have less downside than someone who paid closer to last year’s average. For a future seller, the softer market means resale value may depend more heavily on trim choice, condition, and equipment level.

Kia’s standard driver-assistance suite includes adaptive cruise control with stop and go, forward automatic emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection, lane-following and lane-keeping assist, rear cross-traffic alert with emergency braking, and blind-spot monitoring. Navigation-based adaptive cruise control and Highway Driving Assist are available, while Highway Driving Assist 2 with automated lane changes is limited to the top two trims.

Should I buy a 2024 Kia Sorento or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2024 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2024 if:

• 36.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 8.18% compared with last year.
• The 2024 brings a visual update, major infotainment and safety improvements, and a new X-Pro trim.

Consider the 2025 if:

• At $40,560 CAD, the 2025 costs more than the current year's $37,690 CAD average.
• It adds a grey paint colour.

The bottom line: If you want the better value, the 2024 is the smarter buy because it delivers the refresh and the lower average price. If you can spend more and want the newer model year, the 2025 is the alternative to watch.
