When was the last time that you closed your eyes while sitting on the backseat of a car just to enjoy the ride as well as the swift music running through your ears? Well, you can have it all with the new Kia Sorento SUV that has been recently launched into the market. This vehicle is packed with notable specifications and a performance that has left behind all the other competitors.
What’s quite interesting about this SUV is the new diesel engine which has been getting attention from all the people. The new seven-seat SUV leaves its predecessor behind for this and other reasons that we are going to discuss in the following context. The newly released monster of a car is appealing when it comes to the shape and design and it also has unique dynamics that will leave you awed.
The SUV sits on a 2.2 litre turbocharged four cylinder engine which is lighter than one in its predecessor and superior in performance too. The diesel engine is able to produce an output of about 182bhp and a torque of 317lb ft which is much better than its petrol and hybrid alternatives. Although the recent experiences and news of diesel driven cars might discourage you, the manufacturers have made sure that you won’t have an issue while driving this piece of fine machinery.
The Sorento is 4705mm long and has a width of 1870mm which makes it a bigger SUV than the previous one in the series. The interior of the car is where things get interesting for Sorento. Seats, doors, dashboards, and other parts have been manufactured with the highest quality of materials and they feel good. With a 12.2in digital display and a 10.16in touchscreen on the dashboard make it a lot more desirable. The interface is very easy to understand and the controls can be handled by anyone after spending just a little time with them.
The car can pick up a speed of 62mph within 8.9 seconds. Whether you are driving it at lower speed or a higher one, you do not have anything to worry about. The engine of the car works fine at lower as well as higher speeds and keeps the vehicle balanced at all times. Shifting lanes and handling the car in tight areas is very easy. There is a lot of fun to be had while you are behind the wheels in this car.
