The refreshed Kia Sorento redefines the large family SUV segment with bold design, advanced technology and outdoor-ready performance.
Built to inspire confidence, it sets new benchmarks with futuristic innovation, intelligent safety systems and a premium digital driving experience.
“The Sorento’s evolution echoes Kia’s brand transformation. A rich package of advanced safety features and highly efficient powertrains make it perfect for customers seeking a safe, reliable, and relaxed drive,” says Paul Turnbull, CEO of Kia South Africa.
Next-Gen Tech for a Smarter Drive
The Sorento’s dual 12.3-inch panoramic screens (infotainment + digital cluster) and 10-inch head-up display keep drivers informed without distraction.
The digital rear-view mirror doubles as a camera feed for unobstructed visibility, while wireless charging, six USB-C ports, and Bose premium audio enhance convenience.
Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) include:
-
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (with Junction Turning/Crossing detection)
-
Evasive Steering Assist & Blind Spot Monitoring
-
Lane Keep Assist & Smart Cruise Control
-
Parking Collision Avoidance & 360° Around View Monitor
Safety is reinforced with seven airbags, including an innovative front centre airbag to prevent head collisions.
Futuristic Design Meets Rugged Capability

The Sorento’s redesigned vertical LED headlights, 3D mesh grille, and sequential turn signals create a high-tech aesthetic. Inside, ambient mood lighting, a panoramic sunroof, and sustainable materials blend luxury with innovation.
Powered by a 2.2L turbodiesel (148kW/440Nm) paired with an 8-speed wet DCT, the Sorento balances power and efficiency.
