The 2019 Kia Sorento facelift brings revised headlights, taillights, exhaust and grille to sharpen the exterior. The Sorento remains the largest SUV in the Kia range, and its seven-seat capacity is a key part of its appeal for families who need genuine third-row space.
The Sport trim is the near-entry variant in a lineup that spans Si, Sport, SLi and GT-Line. Amelia reviews it as a way to understand how well the Sorento package holds together at a lower price point, without the premium features of the upper trims. Australia gets two engine choices: a 2.2-litre diesel with 147 kW and 441 Nm, or a 3.5-litre petrol with 206 kW and 336 Nm.
The Sorento competes alongside the Toyota Kluger, Mazda CX-9 and Hyundai Santa Fe. The combination of seven seats, a generous warranty and competitive pricing gives the Sorento a strong argument, and the Sport trim makes that argument accessible to a broader range of buyers.
