The Kia Sorento is now officially available for booking in Pakistan and was officially unveiled at the Kia PowerPlay event where car journalists were invited to take a close look at the car. Needless to say, the entire community of auto enthusiasts is abuzz with the news of the new, big SUV due to its imposing presence and impressive performance.

The Kia Sorento is a mid-size, 7-seater SUV that has been introduced in Pakistan in its third-generation form, and will be sold as a locally assembled vehicle and a contender to the Toyota Fortuner.

Although the other markets have received the fourth generation Sorento, the third-generation model is still being sold in most of the markets where Kia operates.

Here’s what the Sorento has to offer:

Design

Although the design is not particularly radical, it seems to work in the SUV’s favor as the smooth silhouette and clean design exude an understated yet elegant look. The front has an attractive pair of LED projector headlights with sleek DRLs, modern-looking and effective foglights at the bottom, a smooth bumper, and Kia’s trademark tiger-nose grille for a touch of aggressiveness.

The side profile resembles that of any other crossover SUV, but the 18-inch alloys and chrome trim around the car enhance its subdued albeit smart look.

Kia has maintained its simplistic approach with a nice and clean look at the back that features an impressive pair of taillights, a stylish rear bumper with a pair of reflectors on either side, a neat diffuser at the bottom, and an exhaust that is not overly stylized. Overall, the Sorento makes for a very handsome-looking SUV.

Interior

As is customary with Kia, the interior has a familiar layout and look. All the materials are of remarkable quality, and the design is intuitive and attractive. Some might find the dash design to be a bit too simple, but the layout is easy, and the fit and finish look impeccable.

With 3-row seating for seven passengers, the cabin is pleasant, roomy, and airy, which makes sitting at the back a comfortable experience.

Performance

The PowerPlay event even offered the attendees a riding experience. The vehicle that did the track run with enthusiasts on board was a 3.5 liter V6 Sorento variant that was highly praised for its impressive and agile performance. The 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine also amazed the enthusiasts with its mild off-roading talents.
