Still can't figure what Kia was thinking when it named the Sorento after a small Italian village famous for lemons. The town of Sorrento, spelled with two r's, is known for its abundance of lemon trees.
Guessing Kia still has a sense of humor about it 20 years later as the Sorento remains a popular midsize crossover for the Korean carmaker. The 2022 Sorento EX Hybrid is an even more fuel-efficient example of the capable, comfortable family hauler, and has more total cargo volume than most in its segment.
Coming off a 7th-generation redesign, Kia this year added an all-wheel-drive option to the hybrid, a new plug-in hybrid model with an EPA rating of 79 MPGe, and a standard 10.25-inch touchscreen across the board.
