My new Sorento GT-Line (diesel) is now a month old and love it - big jump in all areas, including drive and handling over previous car (the 2018 Santa Fe Highlander). Can’t complain about range - over 1000 km on the highway!

I alreckon I only had 2 rwd cars in my life and none awd/ 4wd.
I am very happy with the fwd, 8 speed great gearbox and no pdf issues later on.

I am considering getting rid of my 2021 Mazda CX 9 which is not very fuel efficient only giving me 440-460km on a full tank and getting the new Sorrento diesel engine. How many kms average can you get on a full tank of petrol?

I feel your frustration, Sam, regarding the over-zealous ADAS systems in the latest-gen cars. Feels like they're getting more invasive.

My father 1988 Toyota Corolla had a speed sensor that gave an alert when the car internal speed limit was exceeded which was around 100km

You may want to take this down - driving while not looking at the road for 12 seconds isn't a good idea

[jamaicasysbm]

I was thinking of acquiring the ford Everest over the Sorento but I am reconsidering

[timjackson]

What is the color of this car? New color?

Why the 2024 Kia sorento on the Kia website is not that one that everyone is talking about with the new facelift

3.5 liter? We need it in EU.

Geez this apple car play looks like shit for kids.
