Used 2023 Kia Sorento Hybrid SUV Trims Comparison
Trim level differences
The 2023 Kia Sorento Hybrid is a small SUV with three rows of seating that can carry up to six passengers (the second row has captain's chairs). It's available in two trim levels: EX and SX Prestige. Both are powered by a turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine paired to a hybrid system and a six-speed automatic transmission. Combined output is 227 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. Front-wheel drive is standard for the EX and all-wheel drive is an option. The SX Prestige comes with AWD as standard equipment. Keep reading for our rundown of the Sorento's standard and optional features.
Which Sorento Hybrid trim does Edmunds recommend?
Thanks to its impressive list of standard equipment, we'd put our money on the EX. To make the most of the hybrid powertrain, we'd stick with the standard front-wheel drive, but if you live with inclement weather and need the all-wheel drive, you get a panoramic sunroof as part of the extra cost.
