The fuel efficiency of the 2021 Sorento will vary depending on factors, including the engine you’ve selected. However, the highest fuel economy you’ll see checks in at an EPA-estimated 24 city and 29 highway MPG.¹

Additional Performance Features 

When you peer under the hood of the Kia Sorento, you’ll find numerous other performance features that help make this model be so athletic and efficient.

For starters, the Continuously Variable Valve Timing and Gasoline Direct Injection systems come standard on each engine. Plus, standard Idle Stop and Go will shut down your engine when idling at a stop sign or in rush-hour traffic to conserve fuel. When traffic resumes, this system will seamlessly restart your motor so you can be on your way with ease.

A few optional features include All-Wheel Drive, a center-locking differential, and torque-vectoring cornering control. These systems help you cruise over slick roads with ease so you can always stay in control of your roadster.
