It seems that I m becoming a Kia guy. It used to be a thing to identify yourself with a specific make. My dad was a Packard man, and then he was a Ford man. I grew up a Ford guy, and then in the 70s
I became a Toyota guy, and now I m leaning towards being a Kia guy. Ya think maybe I m fickle?
You would think that if I liked Kia I would also like Hyundai; I mean they are kissing cousins. I think the difference for me is the styling. And maybe the logo. That sounds superficial doesn t it?

The first quarter of 2021 is behind us as we all continue to move slowly through the pandemic tunnel with us now seeing some light at its end. Auto industry sales have been slowed a bunch over the last year but things are now opening up. Kia Motors America (KMA) had its best-ever month and an all-time high for first quarter sales. Through March 2021, Kia sales are up 9-percent over the previous first quarter high set in 2016. Kia’s midsize 3-row Telluride SUV has helped bring in a lot of those sales.

The Sorento has been a part of the Kia lineup since 2002 when it debuted at the Chicago Auto Show. Over the years, the SUV has changed with the times but hadn’t seen a major refresh since its third generation was introduced in 2014. But for the 2021 model year, the Sorento is completely redesigned, featuring a stylish, modern exterior and setting a new benchmark for Kia.
What’s new for the 2021 Kia Sorento?
Introduced as an all-new model, the Sorento has a long list of new features to be excited about inside and out (and under the hood). The Sorento still has five trims to choose from, but their names have changed slightly. The 2021 Kia Sorento will be offered as: LX, S, EX, SX, and SX Prestige (removing the L trim and adding SX Prestige).
