5 Things to Consider Before Choosing Your 2025 Kia Sorento

The 2025 Kia Sorento moves in a bold new direction, delivering an SUV experience that excels in both everyday driving and special occasions. With enhanced styling, more standard features, and advanced technologies, the latest Sorento stands out as a versatile option for Canadian drivers seeking capability without compromise. This refreshed model ensures you'll reach your destination with all your gear in tow, backed by Kia's reputation for reliability.

The electrified versions expand your options even further. The Sorento HEV provides high-efficiency electric propulsion during city driving alongside gasoline performance with regenerative braking, while the PHEV offers up to 48 km of all-electric range complemented by traditional gasoline performance. With Kia's comprehensive 5-year/100,000 km warranty providing peace of mind, you'll find the 2025 Sorento ready to tackle Canadian roads with confidence.

Multiple Powertrain Options for Your Driving Needs

The 2025 Kia Sorento gives you genuine choice with multiple powertrain options tailored to your specific requirements. The standard internal combustion engine lineup includes a 2.5L 4-cylinder GDI engine generating 191 hp and 181 lb-ft of torque, perfect for everyday driving. For those seeking more power, the available 2.5L Turbo 4-cylinder GDI engine delivers an impressive 281 hp and 311 lb-ft of torque, providing robust acceleration and confident highway passing.

If fuel efficiency ranks high on your priority list, the Sorento HEV (Hybrid Electric Vehicle) combines electric and gasoline power with remarkable results. Its Lithium-ion polymer battery system helps achieve an estimated fuel consumption of just 7.0 L/100km in city driving and 6.9 L/100km on highways. Taking efficiency even further, the Sorento PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle) offers up to 48 km of all-electric range with a combined estimated fuel consumption of only 3.2 Le/100km. The PHEV recharges from 15% to 100% in approximately 3.8 hours on a standard 240V charger, making overnight charging convenient and practical.

Versatile Interior Space That Adapts to Your Life

The 2025 Kia Sorento transforms to accommodate your changing needs with thoughtfully designed interior versatility. The standard Sorento configuration provides seating for seven passengers, while the PHEV model accommodates six, giving everyone room to stretch out on long journeys. Folding second and third-row seats create multiple cargo and passenger configurations to handle everything from grocery runs to weekend getaways.

Storage capacity impresses at every level. Behind the third row, you'll find 357 litres of cargo space for everyday essentials. Fold the third row, and capacity expands to between 1,090 and 1,274 litres, depending on your model. With both rear rows folded, the Sorento offers up to 2,139 litres of cargo volume – enough for major projects or adventure gear. The available Smart Power Liftgate adds convenience by opening automatically when you stand behind it for three seconds with your Smart Key, and closing when you walk away. Select models allow you to set a maximum opening height, ensuring the liftgate works perfectly in garages with limited clearance.

Connectivity and Technology for Modern Drivers

The 2025 Kia Sorento surrounds you with intuitive technology that enhances every journey. Most models feature a 12.3-inch multimedia interface that puts entertainment and vehicle information at your fingertips. Higher trims elevate the experience with a panoramic digital display combining individual 12.3-inch screens for driving information and infotainment/climate controls.

Staying connected remains effortless with standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration, allowing seamless access to your favourite apps and navigation. Bluetooth hands-free connectivity comes standard across the lineup, while front and rear USB charging ports keep your devices powered throughout the drive. Select models add wireless device charging, eliminating cable clutter.

Kia Connect, available on select trims, brings additional convenience through a smartphone app, web portal, or in-vehicle head unit. This service provides useful features like remote climate control and vehicle status updates free for the first three years from vehicle registration. The standard Smart Key with push-button start lets you enter and start your Sorento without removing the key from your pocket or bag, while the available electronic parking brake with auto-hold function makes stops of any duration more comfortable.

Advanced Safety Features for Peace of Mind

Your safety remains paramount in the 2025 Kia Sorento, which arrives equipped with sophisticated technologies that protect you and your passengers. Standard across all models, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System alerts you to underinflated tires before they become hazardous, while the security immobilizer prevents unauthorized vehicle use.

Electronic Stability Control works continuously to help maintain directional control during emergency manoeuvres, complemented by Hill-Assist Control for smooth starts on inclines. The 4-wheel anti-lock braking system with Electronic Brake-force Distribution and Brake Assist System provides reliable stopping power in various conditions. A standard rearview camera with dynamic guidelines takes the guesswork out of backing up.

Available Smart Cruise Control adjusts your speed to maintain a safe following distance from vehicles ahead, with some trims offering enhanced functionality that includes stop-and-go capability for smoother commuting in traffic. Power child door locks provide additional protection for your youngest passengers, securing rear doors against accidental opening. The LATCH system offers standardized anchor points for child safety seats, ensuring proper installation for optimal protection.

Comprehensive Warranty Protection That Goes the Distance

The 2025 Kia Sorento comes backed by warranty coverage that demonstrates Kia's confidence in their engineering and build quality. Every model includes Kia's 5-year/100,000 km comprehensive warranty, covering virtually every component from bumper to bumper. This protection extends to a 5-year/100,000 km limited powertrain warranty, safeguarding critical mechanical components.
