We have had principally good issues to say in regards to the inside of the current-gen Kia Sorento, and that continues for the facelifted mannequin. It is an setting characterised by very good passenger area within the first two rows and acceptable area for average-sized adults within the smaller third row, which is predicted within the section.
What has modified inside is the design of the dashboard with its dual-screen format and slimmer air flow shops within the heart that seem way more upscale than the present mannequin’s. The horizontal theme is way more harmonious and brings the Sorento according to up to date rivals. The dashboard feels uncluttered within the newest iteration.
Kia says the panoramic panel is commonplace within the new Sorento, however lower-tier trims have a 4.3-inch TFT show and a 12.3-inch infotainment display screen beneath it. Greater-end fashions will get twin 12.3-inch screens below the curved show. As soon as once more, taking its cues from the EV9, the Sorento now will get the next-gen Linked Automobile Navigation cockpit working system with optimized accessibility and quicker processing speeds. This contains OTA, and wi-fi Apple CarPlay and Android Auto on all trims.
Different tech upgrades for the brand new Kia Sorento SUV embrace a complicated digital key and an upgraded ADAS suite, whereas higher trims ought to profit from gear like a surround-view digicam system and a extra highly effective Bose sound system.
We will additionally see that the normal gear selector has been changed by what seems to be like a rotary different, and Kia has included some enticing ambient lighting alongside the dashboard and entrance door panels. We count on the usual seats within the Kir Sorento to be upholstered in fabric, with leatherette and leather-based on higher trims. Energy-adjustable entrance seats will proceed to be out there as they’re now.
Cargo area within the 2023 Kia Sorento is as a lot as 75.5 cubic toes, with all of the seats folded down. Even the 12.6 cubes behind the third row is sort of sensible. We see no cause that these numbers will change for the 2024 mannequin when it will get right here.
