I’ll be honest: I don’t have much else to say about the Sorento. It is a crossover worthy of a place on your shopping list; certainly, you’d be doing yourself a disservice if you did not take a look at it, mainly because of the price factor.
You get quite a bit of content in the Sorento for your dollar, and that is the biggest selling point. Gas mileage was not bad for the week, either, although not anywhere close the optimistic published ratings of 11.1/7.9 L/100km (city / highway) — in mixed (mostly highway) driving, I averaged 11.9L/100km.
At the start of the week I was averaging over 13L/100km and attempted to be very light on the gas pedal, which drastically reduced consumption. On a long highway trip, I averaged 10.5L/100km, which isn’t horrible but also nowhere near 7.9L/100km.
