With eight different trims, including LX, S, EX, SX, X-Line EX, X-Line SX, X-Line SX Prestige, and X-Pro SX Prestige, buyers have more choices than ever to find their ideal fit. The new model year introduces updated infotainment systems with the latest ccNC touchscreen technology, along with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay as standard features across all trims.

The Sorento also introduces improved connectivity through Kia Connect services, Over-The-Air updates, and available Wi-Fi hotspot on select models.
Performance and Drivability
The 2026 Sorento provides two different powertrain options to meet various driving preferences. The standard 2.5-liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine generates 191 horsepower and is paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. This efficient setup offers an EPA-estimated 26 MPG combined for front-wheel drive models, with city estimates of 23 MPG and highway estimates of 31 MPG.
For those wanting more power, the available 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine produces a strong 281 horsepower. This engine is paired with an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission (DCT) with paddle shifters, offering sporty, quick acceleration. Customers from North Attleboro seeking improved capability will find that all-wheel drive is available on most trim levels, while the turbocharged models come with standard or optional AWD, depending on the configuration.
All Sorento models come with selectable drive modes including Normal, Sport, Smart, Snow, Mud, and Sand, allowing drivers to optimize performance for different conditions. The SUV sits on a 110.8-inch wheelbase, offering a smooth ride and stable handling whether you're in the city or on the highway.
Interior and Technology
Step inside the 2026 Sorento and discover a thoughtfully designed cabin that emphasizes both comfort and connectivity. The standard 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system acts as the technological centerpiece, providing intuitive controls and sharp graphics. Even base models include HD Radio, Bluetooth connectivity, voice recognition, and SiriusXM satellite radio.
Seating arrangements differ by trim, with most models fitting seven passengers across three rows. The X-Line and higher trims come with captain's chairs in the second row, creating a six-passenger setup with easier access to the third row. Pawtucket families will value the available heated and ventilated front seats, while upper trims add heating to the second-row seats for extra comfort during New England winters.
Higher trim levels of the Sorento offer premium features such as a Bose audio system with 12 speakers, a panoramic sunroof with a power sunshade, ambient LED interior lighting, and genuine leather seats. The vehicle also includes useful features like multiple USB ports, a wireless charging pad, and numerous storage compartments inside the cabin.
Top Features
The 2026 Sorento features a wide range of standard and available options. Each model includes proximity key entry with push-button start, dual-zone automatic climate control on most trims, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. The Smart Power Liftgate with proximity detection makes loading cargo easy, opening automatically when it detects the key fob nearby.
Technology highlights feature the available Highway Driving Assist 2 (HDA 2) on select models, offering semi-autonomous highway driving. Drivers in the Providence area will appreciate the Navigation-Based Smart Cruise Control, which automatically adjusts speed for ramps and curves. The Aerial View Camera System, available on higher trims, offers a bird's-eye perspective of the vehicle's surroundings, simplifying parking and maneuvering.
X-Line models feature rugged styling elements, including gloss black exterior accents, unique alloy wheels, and upgraded interior trim. The X-Pro SX Prestige enhances capability with all-terrain tires and specialized tuning for off-road adventures. Browse our new inventory to discover all available configurations.
Safety
Safety remains a top priority in the 2026 Sorento, with Kia's extensive suite of driver assistance technologies. Every model comes with Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist, Lane Keeping Assist, Lane Following Assist, and Driver Attention Warning as standard features. The Blind-Spot Collision Warning system with Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance helps prevent accidents when changing lanes or backing up.
Higher trim levels include even more advanced safety features, such as Junction Crossing assistance, Parking Distance Warning for front, rear, and side obstacles, and Evasive Assist technology. Swansea, MA residents will value the standard rearview camera with dynamic guidelines, while available surround-view cameras offer better visibility in tight spots.
