    Description:

    The Kia Sorento PHEV is the plug-in hybrid version of the Kia Sorento, a mid-size SUV with three rows of seats and standard all-wheel drive. It is sized to fit easily into daily life while offering room for a growing family. The cabin is well finished, and the ride is comfortable on rough roads. It suits families who can charge at home and want electric local driving with hybrid backup for longer trips. Standard all-wheel drive adds confidence through Canadian winters.

    Range, Battery, and Charging of the Kia Sorento PHEV:

    • The Sorento PHEV is rated at up to 55 km of electric range and up to 739 km of total range.
    • A 13.8 kWh battery feeds a 67 kW electric motor that handles much local driving on its own.
    • Level 2 charging is listed at about 3 hours and 48 minutes.
    • Electric range is useful for local errands and shorter commutes, especially with regular home charging.
    • In cold weather the gasoline engine may run to help heat the cabin, which reduces electric driving in winter.

    • A 1.6 L gasoline engine and the electric motor combine for 200 kW and 366 Nm.
    • 0–100 km/h is listed at 8.5 seconds, and top speed at 193 km/h.
    • Standard all-wheel drive works through a conventional 6-speed automatic transmission.
    • All-wheel drive feels confident in snow and slippery winter conditions, which suits family driving across much of Canada.
    • Pull-away response is debated: some drives found a hesitation, while others found none.

    • The infotainment system is easy to use and supports wireless smartphone mirroring.
    • A shared touch panel switches between climate and media controls.
    • Driver assistance features work effectively in highway traffic and daily commuting.
