The Sorento PHEV boasts an electric-only driving range of 31 miles, which is ideal if you want to run errands or drive around your neighborhood with zero emissions. The engine-only fuel economy for this model is 33 MPG combined, but when the PHEV motor is fully activated, it has an estimated mileage of 74 MPGe. 

This PHEV is powered by a 1.6-liter, four-cylinder turbocharged motor and a full parallel hybrid system that delivers a combined output of 261 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. Charging the electric motor only takes about four hours with a Level 2 charger. A six-speed automatic transmission and AWD drive type are standard. 

Modern Style

One of the reasons the Sorento PHEV stands out is because of its ultra-modern minimalist style, which is emphasized by the exterior paint color options for each trim level. The color options are Steel Gray, Silky Silver, Mineral Blue, Interstellar Gray, Aurora Black Pearl, Volcanic Sand, Snow White Pearl, and Cityscape Green. 

The modern style of this PHEV extends to the cabin area with its clean lines and innovative technologies. The EX model is upholstered in SynTex material in either black or gray, while the upper SX Prestige model has genuine leather seating material in gray or trim-exclusive Dust Blue.

Smart Safety 

This Kia is equipped with advanced safety tech like blind-spot collision warning, which alerts you when another vehicle enters your blind spot. This system has Parallel Exit to provide blind spot alerts when you are pulling out of a parallel parking spot. On the SX Prestige, this blind-spot warning system is enhanced with collision avoidance technology to help you avoid an accident and an in-cabin blind-spot monitor on the digital cluster. 

Highway Driving Assist is a semi-autonomous driving assistant that manages your steering, braking, and acceleration on certain compatible highways. Navigation-based smart cruise control adapts to the surrounding traffic pace while also adjusting the speed of your PHEV based on navigation data by anticipating upcoming curves in the road and slowing your vehicle down for safer handling. 

Diverse Infotainment

A 12.3-inch central multimedia system with integrated navigation is standard. This immersive infotainment hub can sync up with smartphone-integrated apps to mirror your favorite third-party entertainment apps, like Spotify or Audible. You can also stream media wirelessly with Bluetooth or use your smartphone-integrated apps to send hands-free texts while you drive. A Wi-Fi hotspot is available via subscription.

The six-passenger Sorento PHEV is a super-modern SUV with iconic style and high-tech features to boost your safety on the road. Drop by DeMontrond Kia in Houston, TX for a test drive today.
