What Kia Sorento do most buyers choose?

The Kia Sorento years with the most listings are 2020, 2019, and 2024.

These higher-volume years tend to be popular because they give you a wider selection of trims, prices, and equipment levels. They also often sit in the sweet spot between newer features and more accessible used pricing.

What is the Kia Sorento's resale value?

Most Sorento model years are showing double-digit year-over-year price declines, which is good news if you’re shopping used and want more value for your money. The newer model years are also falling, so recent inventory may be more approachable than it was a year ago. A few years are declining less sharply than the rest, which suggests some trims and generations are retaining value a bit better than others.

The 2015, 2021, and 2024 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
