The current model of the Sorento has been launched back in 2015 so nobody expected Kia to work on a facelift. However, after a few months ago a journalist managed to photograph the mid-life facelift of the car it became clear that Kia might be looking to update the Sorento in order to bring it closer in terms of looks to their current range of cars which all look quite a bit more different than the Sorento. While this is certainly a bold move from Kia considering how new the model it, the change does make a lot of sense but it might hurt the sales of the car considering that the current model looks very good and it is among the top three best built cars in its class.
Design – Interior & Exterior
As you would expect from such a cheap car, the base model doesn’t come with all the bells and whistles but it does come with a great interior in terms of quality and features, its only real drawback being the rather old engine. The upcoming 2018 Kia Sorento is expected to remain quite similar to this recipe, so while the engine will be as basic as it can get, the interior of the car is going to be updated with the latest safety features Kia has to offer as well as with a better LCD screen than before for the infotainment system.
Besides that, the design of the dashboard and the layout of the interior are expected to remain roughly unchanged over the ongoing model.
