Available Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist 2.0 helps you avoid forward collisions and adds even more safety features, including: Junction Crossing to detect potential intersection collisions; Lane-Change Side and Lane-Change Oncoming for safer lane changes; and Evasive Steering Assist.
Lane Keeping Assist warns you if you leave your lane without signaling and can provide automatic assistance to help you steer your way back to safety in situations where might be in danger of leaving the road.
Bravely go venturing out with available Blind Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist, which actively monitors your blind spots for approaching vehicles and intervenes to reduce the risk of an accident.
This peace-of-mind system activates whenever the transmission is placed in Reverse to detect traffic approaching from either side of your vehicle. A signal flashes in the mirror corresponding to the direction of the oncoming traffic, helping you avoid collisions with vehicles you may not be able to see.
Using ultrasonic sensors around the vehicle, this standard Sorento HEV and PHEV feature helps make parking easier by warning you about objects that may not be visible to you during low-speed parking manoeuvres.
Cameras located around the vehicle provide you with 360-degree view of the area around your Sorento SX HEV or PHEV to assist in parking situations and other tight-space maneuvers. Smart View Monitor can also be used to monitor your vehicle when parked, using the Kia Connect app.
For added peace of mind, Sorento SX HEV and PHEV models come with Highway Driving Assist 2, a technology that helps you stay in your lane, even on curves. It also has the ability to automatically adjust your lane position if a vehicle to the side of you is getting too close.
Every Sorento HEV and PHEV is equipped to receive automatic over-the-air (OTA) updates to many of its electronically controlled systems, including the powertrain. You get easy access to updates and available upgrades with fewer dealership visits over the life of the vehicle.
Available on SX trims, this feature turns the mirror into a digital display with a panoramic view of the rear of the vehicle – perfect for keeping an eye on what’s happening behind you when your vision might otherwise be obstructed by passengers or cargo.
Automatically closes the liftgate when you walk away from the cargo area.
Including roomy and comfortable dual captain chairs for 2nd-row passengers.
Heated and ventilated front seats and a heated 2nd row provide added comfort.
