The 2021 Kia Sorento EX+ for buyers

CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2021 Kia Sorento EX+ for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. This page sets out the 2021 Kia Sorento EX+ for buyers, in plain words.

Before you sign for the Sorento

Owners filed 275 complaints with NHTSA, most often about power train, engine and electrical system; have those parts checked. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.

What the specs mean

Its powertrain is the 2.5L 4-cylinder with 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.

It is rated 9.0 L/100 km combined: about 27 litres every 300 km. Every 100 km costs about $13.95 in fuel at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,600 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Size and space

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

Is it right for your trip?

It suits winter trips and weekends with more gear than people. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.

Drive it on your own roads

If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Sorento answers the big questions. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.

The cost of driving it

Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$2,600 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Picking a year and a trim

Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
