The Sorento’s seven-seat flexibility makes it the perfect people and cargo carrier. With 40:20:40 split-folding and reclining second row seats, as well as 50:50 split-folding third row seats, you can guarantee all your passengers a comfortable ride, as well as carry a sizeable haul of bulky items. Add to that positively cavernous leg and headroom for all seats and you’ve got yourself a pretty palatial four-wheel drive.
Adaptive smart cruise control
The adaptive smart cruise control is a Sorento first, constantly monitoring the distance to the vehicle in front, adjusting the speed of the car and even stopping if needed, all completely automatically.

Further improving the drivability is the intelligent All-Wheel-Drive technology. Building on its off-road pedigree to make everyday driving more comfortable, the Sorento automatically adjusts its height according to the total weight of the people and luggage on board. It also reverts to 2WD mode most of the time to boost fuel economy, but when conditions get more challenging it automatically adjusts to the requisite levels of traction.
All-powerful touchscreen
Elsewhere, there’s an eight-inch touchscreen displaying the Sorento’s top-of-the-range satnav system, as well as the smart park assist camera, helping you squeeze into the tightest of spaces. You’ll also enjoy a ten-speaker infinity sound system, with access to all your favourite music through Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
Stylish on the inside
From the satin-chrome finish on the door handles inside the car to the luxurious leather trim on the steering wheel and gearshift, the Sorento offers up sleek accents that make it more than just your average SUV.
Smart on the outside
On the outside, the Sorento boasts the Smart power tailgate, which opens the boot after detection of the smart entry system key behind the car for three seconds, making trips from the supermarket effortless. Meanwhile, LED daytime running lights improve visibility for oncoming traffic, while the rear combination lights are integrated into the tail light cluster to create an attention-grabbing final flourish.
