Speaking of the exterior, the design of the new Sorento takes cues from Kia's flagship SUV, the EV9, with striking vertical headlights and a bold, rugged appearance accentuated by redesigned alloy wheels and a new bonnet design. Chrome details add a touch of sophistication to the car's exterior. Inside, the model embraces Kia's Opposites United design philosophy, featuring premium materials, advanced technology, and sustainable elements such as recycled PET cloth upholstery.
