Buying the 2021 Kia Sorento SX

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2021 Kia Sorento SX for sale by us right now. Before buying the 2021 Kia Sorento SX, read what the figures say and how to try one first.

A buyer's checks

A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. NHTSA lists 5 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Owners filed 275 complaints with NHTSA, most often about power train, engine and electrical system; have those parts checked.

Under the hood

It uses the 2.5L 4-cylinder and front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

At 9.0 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 27 litres of fuel. For 1,000 km, budget about $139.50 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,600 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

A good match for

It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.

How big it is

An SUV body means more headroom and a taller cargo opening than a car of the same length.

Drive it on your own roads

Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Drive the Sorento on your commute before you commit to it. Rent the Sorento first, and buy only if it fits your life.

Which one to look for

If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.

Running costs

At our price setting, 100 km costs about $13.95 in fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.
