Kia Sorento
The Sorento is a versatile midsize SUV that can accommodate six or seven passengers, although space in the third row is tight. Multiple powertrain options are available, starting with two gasoline engines that produce 191 and 281 horsepower, respectively. The Sorento HEV (hybrid) is fuel-efficient, burning only 7 L/100 km, and the Sorento PHEV (plug-in hybrid) enables pure electric range of up to 55 km. The adventure-oriented X-Pro model is well-suited to Canadian roads.
