What You Should Know About the Refreshed 2024 Kia Sorento?

The Kia Sorento has benefitted from several significant changes for the 2024 model year, helping it remain one of the most desirable models in its segment. Here is an overview of the main things to know about it:

A More Modern and Aggressive Design

The 2024 Kia Sorento has received styling updates that make it look more rugged and more distinctive than ever before. These changes include new Star Map amber daytime running lamps and vertical taillamps that recall the Telluride full-size SUV. The new Sorento also takes inspiration from the new EV9 electric SUV, notably in the appearance of the front fascia. The bumpers are also modified to include wider skid plate inserts in order to lend the Sorento a more rugged look than before. Of course, new alloy wheel designs and new paint colours are also included, further distinguishing the 2024 Sorento from the previous model and its competitors.

The new X-Line Limited and X-Pro models

Following from the Sportage and the Telluride, the 2024 Kia Sorento adds the X-Line Limited and the X-Pro models to its lineup. These adventure-focussed trim levels make the Sorento look even more rugged with design elements such as black accents, exclusive black alloy wheels, different front and rear bumpers, a center locking differential, and unique exterior paint colours. The top-of-the-line X-Pro also includes all-terrain tires and a higher towing capacity of up to 4,500 pounds.

A more technological interior

The 2024 Kia Sorento gains a more technologically advanced interior that is similar to many other recent Kia products. This means that the SUV now features a curved panel at the top of the dashboard which includes both the digital driver information screen and the infotainment screen, creating an uncluttered appearance and placing all of the main controls closer to the driver. The new Sorento also benefits from the brand’s latest operating system, which is capable of receiving over-the-air updates and equipped with the wireless versions of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard. The 2024 Sorento now also offers the Digital Key 2 Touch system, which allows the driver to enter and start the vehicle with their phone acting as the key.

A complete list of driver assistance technologies

The 2024 Kia Sorento is equipped with all of the latest driver assistance technologies available from Kia, including the forward collision warning system with junction turning support, the semi-autonomous Highway Driving Assist 2 with automatic lane changes, and the Smart Cruise Control Machine Learning (SCC-ML) which can adapt to individual driving styles to provide a more natural feel to acceleration and braking inputs.
