Kia Sorento Hybrid 2022 Review

When you think of big seven-seat SUVs with self-charging hybrid capability you probably think only about the Toyota Kluger Hybrid, right?

Well there’s a new option available now, in the form of the fourth-generation Kia Sorento, which has already won plenty of awards including carsales Car of the Year in 2020 and carsales Best Family SUV in 2022.

The new 2022 Kia Sorento HEV plugless hybrid joins regular petrol, diesel and plug-in hybrid powertrains in the large Korean SUV’s arsenal, and is available in both front-drive and all-wheel drive configurations.

It’s only available in top-shelf GT-Line trim, so the starting price isn’t cheap at $66,750 plus on-road costs, but the new Sorento hybrid could well be the pick of the bunch – for some.

It's not DCT as per your mention at 1min35sec. It is a standard automatic torque converter 6 speed.

Wonder is it smooth when petrol engine intervening? Noise or vibration? Thanks
