What Are The Engine Specs Of The 2022 Kia Sorento?
Shawnee Mission Kia welcomes you to find out what the 2022 Kia Sorento engine specs are.
Sorento Engine Performance
There’s not a vehicle that offers more for drivers than the Kia Sorento. None could offer the standard features it brings to its variety of models, but what makes the Kia Sorento shine even more, is the optional amenities that can be added to personalize the SUV. Beginning with the cabin layout, if you’d like a little more storage space more than a third row of seating, you can get that. However, if you wouldn’t mind selecting the third row, the standard folding seat feature will add up some more storage room so you’ll be fine. Then there’s a host of Kia Drive Wise safety features that comprise of optional Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Technology, Blind-Spot Detection, Blind-Spot View Monitors, and Surround View. Inside, you could also enjoy the available 10.25-inch display, 12.3-inch Digital Instrument Cluster, and Bose Premium Audio features, so the tunes won’t stop.

What is the Top Speed of the Sorento?
Gorgeous in motion, the Sorento has an estimated maximum speed of 135 miles per hour. Driving to new locations isn’t a surprise for the Kia Sorento, but driving the SUV to unsafe speeds should always be avoided. Following local driving laws should remain the top focus behind the wheel, and testing out the Kia Sorento’s max speed wouldn’t fall in line with that. But it’s always fun to push your Sorento a bit, but you need to do it in a safe situation.
0-60 of the Sorento
The Kia Sorento takes only an estimated 6.3 seconds to accelerate from 0-60 miles per hour. It’s easy to say this estimated 0-60 mph time is tied to the Turbo 2.5L engine because it produces the most horsepower. But not one of the Sorento engines lack power when driving on any highway. Whether it’s the fuel-powered powertrain choices or the duo of Hybrid powerplants, no obstacle is too much for any Kia Sorento engine.
Horsepower of the Kia Sorento
Looking at its base setup, the Kia Sorento standard horsepower is 191hp with a 4-Cylinder 2.5-liter engine. This standard powerplant is just one of the many powerplant options you can choose, but it’s standard for the S and LX models. The Kia Sorento has a pair of available engine types as well; a Hybrid Turbo with 227 HP and a Turbocharged Plug-In Hybrid engine that creates 261 HP. Lastly, the 2.5L Turbocharged powertrain creates the highest amount of power with 311 lb-ft of torque and 281hp.

The salesman added on an optional warranty to the car stating it was required. I had stated we did not want any extras.

The moment we walked in, we were warmly greeted. From start to finish was a breeze! No crazy haggling or rudeness…we got the red carpet treatment! We were in and out with no regrets! Cole and Allen were so easy to work with. We would highly recommend this dealership to friends and family!

Sofia and the rest of the team were great. Appreciated the brief video by the service tech. Everyone did what they said they would do. Even the young man who checked me out walked me to my car and removed the plastic, etc. He was so friendly! Thx, SM Kia!
