LIVING WITH A 2022 KIA SORENTO PLUG-IN HYBRID

EV Channels Review

The reviewer spent a week with the 2022 Kia Sorento Plug-In Hybrid SX-Prestige, highlighting its appealing design, luxurious interior features like the unique blue leather, and advanced technology. While praising the comfortable second-row captain's chairs and the convenience of the plug-in hybrid system for daily commutes, the reviewer noted the limited cargo space when the third row is in use and the tight fit for adults in the third row. The vehicle's performance, combining a 1.6L turbo-four with electric power for a total of 261 hp, was deemed adequate, and the electric range of around 31-32 miles was achieved. The reviewer found the Sorento PHEV to be a competitive and attractive option in the three-row crossover segment, particularly for those prioritizing electric commuting with the flexibility of a gasoline backup.
