Kia Sorento 2005 Overview
The Sorento is an attractive entry into the crowded affordable 4WD market. Offering either a 2.4-litre four-cylinder with a 5-speed manual or a 4-speed automatic, or a 3.5-litre V6 with a 4-speed automatic in early models and a 5-speed automatic since 2005, the Sorento offers decent off-road ability and a fair bit of interior space, making it a good buy, given its price. Standard features include 16-inch alloy wheels, radio cassette with antenna and 6 speakers, manual air-conditioning, power steering, 8-way adjustable driver seat, 4-way adjustable passenger seat, power windows, 60/40 split folding rear seat, battery saver, driver airbag, proper rear lift gate, power door locks, and limited slip differential. Available features in higher models include a CD player with power antenna and 8 speakers, ABS brakes, power folding mirrors and cruise control. Four-wheel independent suspension and four-wheel disc brakes make it a good road cruiser, unlike truck-based 4WDs, although it is still no sports car.
Kia Sorento 2005 Reliability & Resale Value
Reliability | |
---|---|
Resale Value | |
Known Problems | Front differential chatter and eventual destruction apparently caused by mismatched tyres or lack of tyre rotation. Headlights and other lights have short life. Airbag warning light may come on, even if no real problems exist, but requires new airbag diagnostic unit to eliminate this issue. A handful of other random electrical issues. |
