Explore the New Kia Sorento Hybrid in State College

The new Kia Sorento Hybrid breaks the mold for the average hybrid SUV in several ways. This SUV is the complete package, thanks to its smart technologies, high-level interior comfort, and refined road prowess. The Kia Sorento Hybrid also provides some off-road capability for those who enjoy leading an outdoorsy lifestyle. Here at Lion Country Kia, we are your one-stop shop for new Kia Sorento models. Our lineup includes the EX and SX Prestige.

Interior and Exterior

The interior of the new Kia Sorento Hybrid prioritizes comfort and convenience. The EX trim comes with ActiveX fabric, while the SX Prestige has leather-trimmed seats. There are three rows of seats, which accommodate six people. The second row has comfortable captain's chairs that have a recline function. In addition to that, heat/ventilation functions are available for the front seats and steering wheel. The new Sorento Hybrid uses a split-fold function for easy access to the third row. This function allows you to fold the third-row seats flat to make way for more cargo space. Convenience also comes in the form of Push Button Start and a power-adjustable driver's seat. One of the top interior features is the SUV's panoramic sunroof, and it comes with a powered sunshade via the SX Prestige trim.

The exterior of this vehicle speaks volumes, thanks to its artistic styling. Its aerodynamic body sits athletically on 19-inch wheels, and the wheel arches appear pronounced via dark cladding. Sleek surfaces are on display at each proportion of the body. Deep contours of the lower door panels add character, and the hood looks aggressively sculpted with precision. The SUV's showpiece is its front fascia, with a tiger-nose grille that possesses weaved styling. The front headlamps seamlessly blend into the grille to create a more uniform appearance. Its lower fascia appears masterfully constructed with fog lights and dynamic proportions, which goes on to give the body rugged appeal.

Performance

The Kia Sorento Hybrid comes equipped with a 1.6-liter turbocharged engine that cranks out an estimated 227 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque for your journeys around Bellefonte. Its electric motor fills in the gaps with torque to instantly propel the vehicle forward when you press the pedal. Shifting by wire via a full gearbox provides a thrilling sensation, unlike other gearless hybrids. The new Kia model delivers a driving range of 655 miles via a full tank of gas. Customizing your commute is possible, thanks to the distinctive drive settings. All-wheel drive capability is available for the SX Prestige trim.

Technology

Several advanced technologies are ready for use by you and your passengers, starting with a 10.25-inch multimedia display. Touch-sensitive controls provide ease of use, and in-vehicle apps are ready for entertainment purposes. The lineup includes an app for audiobooks, music, and podcasts. The features of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are also available to entertain you while cruising around Phillipsburg. Additionally, Bose Premium Audio delivers life-like sound quality in select trims. The new Sorento Hybrid goes on to offer wireless charging and multiple USB ports. Other features are available, such as a hands-free liftgate and a dual-level cargo floor. The navigation system provides accurate directions, and there are rain-sensing wipers to increase your safety while road-tripping around Altoona.
