2012 Kia Sorento Calgary

BEAUTIFULLY RUGGED

Sorento is a broad-shouldered expression of Kia's new "design language", blending emotion and sophistication with the comfort features and practicality of a family-friendly crossover SUV. Long, wide and low, the Sorento offers a European-inspired design that is sure to attract attention.

EXPERIENCE COMFORT

While you are out on the open road, Sorento will make you feel right at home. Sorento is available with all kinds of pleasant surprises ? like dual-zone automatic temperature control, a panoramic sunroof and all-wheel drive ? that make it right for you.

PEACE OF MIND

Safety and comfort go hand-in-hand, and with Sorento you will find a wide array of standard safety features to make you feel right at home. It's equipped with the standard protection of six airbags, complemented by the sure-footed stopping power of four-wheel-disc anti-lock brakes, and a rigid body structure that helps channel crash energy away from you and your passengers.

THE POWER OF 2

Sorento offers two dynamic engine choices ? a new 2.4-litre gasoline direct injection (GDI) four-cylinder rated at 191 horsepower (Sorento LX and EX) and a 3.5-litre, 276-horsepower V6 that powers Sorento LX-V6, EX-V6, EX-V6 Luxury and SX models. Both engines come with a standard 6-speed Steptronic automatic transmission for smooth, fuel efficient performance.
