If you’ve been looking for a midsize SUV that seats the whole crew without feeling like a bus, the Kia Sorento near Lawrence, Indiana, is worth a close look. At Ray Skillman Northeast Kia, we carry the full Sorento lineup, and we’d love to help you find the right trim for your daily routine.
The Sorento hits a sweet spot that a lot of families in the Indianapolis area are looking for. It gives you genuine three-row seating and up to 75.5 cubic feet of cargo space, but it still parks and drives like a right-sized SUV. Available second-row captain’s chairs with third-row seating mean everyone can spread out on longer drives. And with Kia’s 10-year/100,000-mile Limited Warranty backing you up, this SUV is built to stick around.
The base engine in the LX and S trims is a 2.5-liter 4-cylinder that produces 191 horsepower and 181 lb-ft of torque, mated to a standard 8-speed automatic transmission. That’s plenty for everyday commuting and weekend errands around the Indianapolis area. If you want something with more kick, stepping up to the EX and above gets you the same engine, but turbocharged to produce 281 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque. This upgrade also includes an 8-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission for faster and smoother shifts.
For drivers who need towing muscle, the X-Pro offers 4,500-lb. towing capacity with torque-vectoring all-wheel drive and Terrain Mode. That’s enough to pull a mid-size boat or camper to one of Indiana’s lakes for the weekend. Browse our Sorento inventory online to see what we have on the lot right now.
