Kia Sorento
The Sorento midsize SUV offers seating for six or seven, as well as a pair of four-cylinder engines producing 191 and 281 horsepower, respectively. Last year, it received various cosmetic updates, a revised dashboard and some lineup changes including a rugged new X-Pro model. For 2025, Kia applies the same treatment to the hybrid and plug-in hybrid variants (minus an X-Pro model). The Sorento PHEV enables a pure electric range of 48 km.
