2016 Kia Sorento trim levels

2016 Kia Sorento by EurovisionNim — CC BY-SA 4.0

When Kia introduced the third generation of their three-row Sorento crossover SUV, they wanted to make sure there was one for everyone. Indeed, the 2016 Kia Sorento is available in a whopping 15 different trims. 

Included in your choices is a 2.4L inline 4-cylinder engine, a 2.0L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine, or a beefy 3.3L V6 engine. The 2.4L engine might not be the most powerful option, but you could hardly call any of these engines weak. They all strike a decent balance between power and fuel economy for their class, especially if you buy one with the front-wheel drive powertrain. With the redesign, the 2016 Kia Sorento received a classy upgrade to its exterior styling for all trims, and the interior became much more streamlined and user-friendly, with the SX and SXL trim offering plenty of amenities that you wouldn’t expect to see on such a reasonably priced 3-row SUV.
