  The 2025 Kia Sorento Hybrid has arrived! This all-new hybrid is designed for drivers who value sustainability and performance. Offering a great balance of efficiency, technology, and comfort, Jeff Belzer’s Kia is excited to go over design, hybrid performance, and trim levels. Let’s get into it! 

Design 

Interior 

The interior is designed with luxury and comfort in mind, seating up to six passengers with ease. Its leather seats are heated and ventilated in the front and there are heated second-row seats, providing you with a comfortable ride no matter the weather. For easy access to the third row, the second-row captain’s chairs slide forward with the touch of a button. The heated steering wheel provides extra warmth during colder months. You will get a sense of openness and freedom with the panoramic sunroof, while the built-in sunshades in the second row offer added convenience. Safety is a priority with nine airbags placed across all three rows, including rear side airbags.     

Exterior  

The exterior showcases a sophisticated design with sleek lines flowing seamlessly from front to rear. The distinctive grille design is paired with striking LED headlights, giving the Sorento Hybrid a modern look while enhancing visibility. 19-inch wheels not only add to the appearance but the performance too. Additionally, there is a towing capacity of 1,654 pounds, making it a great choice for trailers, boats, and more. The combination of capability, sleek design, and functionality make it a standout choice.      

Technology and Performance  

Technology  

The technology in the Sorento Hybrid enhances convenience and safety. The 12-inch touchscreen infotainment center provides seamless access to entertainment, navigation, and vehicle settings. In the SX Prestige, an additional 12-inch digital gauge display is available. For added safety, the 360-degree surround view offers a complete view of your surroundings when backing up. The blind spot view monitor comes standard as well, which gives live feed of rear blind spots.  The Digital Key 2 allows for keyless entry and the ability to share your key virtually through the Kia Access app, making it easier to manage access to your vehicle. The app also has remote start and climate control, so you can have the temperature in the cabin set to your liking before you even enter the vehicle. Inside you will find wireless charging in the front, and USB-C ports in every row to ensure your passengers devices are powered up

Performance 

The 2025 Kia Sorento Hybrid delivers a dynamic driving experience with its versatile performance modes and efficient powertrain. At the core, the 1.6-liter four-cylinder gas engine is paired with an electric motor, giving you 227 horsepower. Drivers can choose from multiple driving modes including Sport for a more responsive drive, Eco for fuel efficiency, Snow for enhanced traction in winter conditions, and Smart for adaptive performance. With up to 32 miles of electric driving range per charge, the Sorento Hybrid offers great electric-only capability, making it perfect for short commutes and reducing overall fuel consumption.  This variety of features ensures that the Sorento Hybrid can adapt to various driving needs while maintaining impressive performance. It is also important to note that the Sorento Hybrid comes as both a plug-in hybrid and a hybrid with regenerative braking. This means you have the option of whether you want a vehicle that needs to be plugged in or not.   

Trim Levels 

Each trim level of the 2025 Kia Sorento Hybrid offers features tailored to different preferences and needs. Both can seat 6 passengers and features dual-zone auto climate control, which allows for personalized temperatures throughout the cabin. In addition, they both have a 12-inch touchscreen with navigation, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. 19-inch alloy wheels enhance the exterior of both the EX and SX Prestige.
