Overview & Reviews
The LX model is now available with a sport package that includes a new five-speed manual transmission, side step bars, Michelin tires, alloy wheels, roof rack, leather-wrapped steering wheel and keyless entry. A two-tone gray interior color scheme is also new, and metallic interior accents replace last year's wood grain accents.
- Great value, long list of standard features, solid construction, true off-road capability, lengthy warranty coverage.

Get the facts and give it a shot!! - 2004 Kia Sorento
By Bob_Hog - May 10 - 10:00 amWe compared other midsize SUVs but found the Sorento to have all the same features as the more commonly known brand SUVs in the USA, but for about $5,000 less.

Great Bang for your buck - 2004 Kia Sorento
By afiremedicswife - April 28 - 3:06 pmThis is a fun truck to drive! My husband even loves it (hes an F-350 man). Great towing, pulled our 4 wheelers and snowmobiles without a problem. MPG could be a little better. However, with the money I saved I dont mind putting a couple extra bucks in the tank. KIA did a great job design wise. I was looking at the BMW X-5 when a co-worker bought one and spent more time in the shop having it repaired than she owned it. I have not had one problem with my Sorento in 17,000 miles. I love it! I will consider another one when that time comes.

By SGalaxyM31 - April 17 - 10:00 amAs far as the SUV market out there this KIA wins hands down.

Not Quite Ready for PrimeTime - 2004 Kia Sorento
By Sgt Wright - March 29 - 10:00 amLooks good. Noisy but peppy engine. Hardest leather seats I have ever encountered. At this time this is a "buyers mistake". When KIA quiets the engine, improves the seats, and makes other "gadge" upgrades it will be ok.

Happy KIA Sorento owner - 2004 Kia Sorento
By Don Railey - March 29 - 9:03 amAfter reviewing the KIA website I was intrigued enough to go to a dealer and take a look. The quality, performance, ride, good looks and pride I feel when others look and inquire as to "what is it?" I traded a full sized luxury sedan thinking I would be giving up the luxury. Wow was I wrong. I not only have all the luxury I was accustomed to, I own one of the most unique vehicles on the road today.

Love My Sorento - 2004 Kia Sorento
By DH5602 - March 11 - 10:00 amMy Sorento is a true SUV. I have a lake cottage in northern Michigan and in winter it goes thru 16 inches of snow no problem. In summer it pulls my 18 foot boat. In spring it handles muddy back roads. On the highway it rides like a luxury car.

Great Vehicle and Value - 2004 Kia Sorento
By Drug cop - March 11 - 10:00 amI think that this is a great vehicle you cant beat the safety or the value for the price. I the sorento out does any vehicle in its class considering you pay over 25,000 for a Toyota Highlander but if you break down you will learn very quick they do not have any roadside asst.
