As of 2025, the model is offered in its updated fifth generation, providing a range of engine options, digital features, and off-road capable versions to accommodate a diverse set of users. ### **Design and Structural Updates** The 2025 [Kia](/en/detay/kia-68f6d/llms.txt) Sorento reflects the brand’s recent adoption of a more rigid and geometric design language. At the front, vertical LED headlights and a wide grille contribute to a modern appearance, while the rear features vertically oriented taillights and a revised tailgate. In the X-Line and X-Pro versions, ground clearance has been increased, off-road tires are used, and distinct exterior design elements are incorporated. Wheel options range from 18 to 20 inches. ### **Engine Options and Performance** The new Sorento is available with three powertrain options: gasoline, hybrid, and plug-in hybrid. The gasoline variant offers a 2.5-liter naturally aspirated or turbocharged four-cylinder engine. The hybrid model combines a 1.6-liter turbo engine with an electric motor to produce a total of 227 horsepower. The plug-in hybrid version combines a 1.6-liter engine with an electric unit to deliver 261 horsepower and can operate in fully electric mode for approximately 50 kilometers. Depending on the selected engine, front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive is available. ### **Interior and Digital Equipment** The 2025 Sorento’s interior has been updated for technological and ergonomic purposes. The driver-oriented dashboard includes a 12.3-inch digital instrument panel and a 12.3-inch infotainment display, which are integrated into a single unit. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are provided as standard features. Higher trims offer leather upholstery, heated and ventilated front seats, a panoramic glass roof, and a digital rearview mirror. ![Image](https://cdn.kureansiklopedi.com/media/uploads/2025/08/16/Fh5oLxqjVqmNDKjwZgcFmhWjYLHYkdbO.png) *Kia Sorento (Kia)* ### **Connectivity and Driver Assistance Systems** The Kia Sorento is offered with a comprehensive set of driver assistance systems.
