Kia Sorento Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2014–2017) — Third Generation
The third-generation Kia Sorento is a five-door SUV built for families who want three rows of seating, a comfortable ride and enough capability for occasional rough roads or towing duties.
The Kia Sorento engine range mixes diesel and gasoline options. Diesel versions such as the 2.0 AT pair an automatic transmission with either all-wheel or front-wheel drive, favouring low-rev pulling power and fuel economy. The 2.4 MT gasoline powertrain with manual transmission suits drivers who prefer simpler, more involving control.
SUV 5-doors — Kia Sorento Engines and Transmissions
Kia Sorento trim levels sit on top of the mechanical version rather than replacing it. The 2.2 AT diesel with all-wheel drive, for example, appears in Luxe and Luxe 2015 equipment configurations, which differ mainly in comfort, convenience and interior features while sharing the same engine and drivetrain.
