KIA’S next-generation Sorrento
August 24th, 2008
KIA’S next-generation Sorrento is in the bag! It will be on sale in the UK later next year.
After a mid-life facelift in 2006, the current Sorrento is ready to be replaced – and Kia is keen to take the fight closer to rivals such as the Land Rover Freelander.
The testing of the next-generation SUV is almost complete. Despite the plastic bag disguise, it looks very similar to the current model and will boast the same dimensions, too.
It’s expected to offer a choice of cabin arrangements, with five or seven seats. Kia will concentrate on improving quality and, as well as the 2.5-litre turbo diesel currently offered, introduce some new engines, too.
