The Kia Sorento is going back to its roots … a little.
The three-row midsize SUV has been given a mid-cycle refresh for 2024 that includes the addition of a new X-Pro model with added off-road capability.
The original 2002 Sorento was a body-on-frame SUV.
The Georgia-built crossover of today features a cosmetic overhaul that brings it more inline with the Kia lineup’s latest look, and will initially offer a choice of two engines.
