Bought 11.16.22 from Car Max in Ontario, Calif. Put car into ECON mode and fill up every 2 mo. SO far in 5 mo gone 828 miles Gas mileage is AWESOME. Only issue was when on Trip, put the car in reverse and it wouldnt move, until i shut it off to clear the computer, and turned back on Said was in Reverse, but wouldnt budge. Did take it back to Dealership for checkup - and thats all it was computer didnt engage. The Key Fob, has cell battery only good for 1 yr - so had to get upgrade/had them make new key COST 2 times as much as going to key shop. the car is awesome, beautiful on outside as well as inside. HAS SO MANY FEATURES - more than i probably will ever use.

Pros

Fuel Economy: Awesome Fuel ECON only fil up ever 2 mo. Goes 400 miles 1 tank of gas.
Interior Space: TONS of space weather seats are up or down. Use it like truck when all seats are down.
Power: Has the power to pass on streets and fwy.

Cons

Technology and Entertainment: issue with Showed in Reverse and wouldnt go in reverse. Shut it off to clear computer. DONT like the Company that installed the music - dont listen to much in car when driving.

We, other family members and close friends have had great experiences with Kia in general and specifically with the Sorento. So happy to find this SAFE well rated and well made almost new vehicle for our daughter. While this is a base model Kia, it still has a back up camera and lots of safety features.....a must for we parents!! At the same time, it's a stylish, practical car with lots of nooks and crannies and she is very comfortable driving it after starting out with our old Yukon XL (tank)!!! Second car purchase from CarMax and another good experience.

Pros

Fuel Economy: Went from Yukon XL to this, so we are saving some $$$.
Ride and Handling: Relatively smooth ride, "stiffer" handling, "tight" car, drives well.
Reliability: From our experience and friends of ours w/Kia vehicles (inc 4 Sorentos), we know the brand to be reliable.

Cons

Cost to Maintain: Kia parts seem to run slightly more than some comparable.

I love it, we just moved to a mountainous area and it's perfect for going up and down in elevation, snow and rough roads. It's comfortable and an easy ride.

Pros

Ride and Handling: It handles really well and rides easy on roads
Weather Versatility: We have all kinds of weather here and it's been a champ through it all so far!
Interior Space: I used this car to move a lot of our stuff to our new home and it has a lot of space in it!

Cons

Dashboard: I do wish the slippery road light wouldn't stay on once the temps drop below 39, I live in the mountains that's a lot of the time!
Visibility: I do wish the back window was a little bigger, it would be just a little easier to see out of.
