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.
- Mediocre fuel economy, harsh ride over sharp impacts.

Gas Mileage - 2004 Kia Sorento
By rbiggs - November 22 - 2:00 amThis is the second KIA that my family owns. We bought a 2003 Sedona Van and love both of them. Regarding the gas mileage,I found that the Ford Explorer with a V6 engine gets the same mileage as the Sedona and Sorento. The Chevrolet Trail Blazer also gets the same, so I feel the 15 to 20 miles a gallon is about average for a V6. also the V6 in the KIA is a larger V6 than most.

2004 Sorento EX - 2004 Kia Sorento
By donjw - November 22 - 2:00 amHad doubts about the name KIA and after putting on over 8,000 miles on a trip we have no doubts about the name. The vehicle has performed better than expected. Only a few minor design changes would make this vehicle a perfect "10".

I Realy Admire my Kia - 2004 Kia Sorento
By Francis St.Jacques J - November 22 - 2:00 amThe Sorento has gone thru one of the worst winters we have had in New England, I always made it thru the large amounts of snow with only one modification (snow tires). I needed to use 4 wheel one time but was very glad to have it when the time came. The ride quality for such an inexpensive vehicle is amazing. I have several customers that have driven my vehicle and comented on its ride,power and comfort(several Lexus drivers too)

I Love My KIA - 2004 Kia Sorento
By Bnkr627 - November 22 - 2:00 amWe decided to consider purchasing SUV after using 2003 KIA as rental car for 3 weeks, while current auto, 96 Taurus SHO being repaired. Reviewed several SUVs, chose 2004 KIA EX for its style, good looks, road handling, and roominess. Much easier to get children in and out of car seats. Very affordable!

sorento my new friend - 2004 Kia Sorento
By tumminia - November 16 - 2:00 amI have just purchased a new Sorento and I am very happy. I was skepticle of Kia after my experience with the 02 Spectra and the loud whistling noise from my windows while driving but have been extremely impressed with the spacious and quiet interior. Very well built and fun to drive.

KISS MY KIA - 2004 Kia Sorento
By bayla - September 23 - 10:00 amits a bit too early to tell...but as of today i love my Sorento! ive looked at literally every car in its class and the kia was over all in every category...comfort, handling, style and price. The guys at Fairfield Kia worked really hard for me to get the lowest price with plenty of surprise extras. I chose the sand beige (gold) really, and I let my husband drive it to work and everyone came out to o-o-oo- h and a-a-h-h-h over it. They thought it was a Lexus or one of those other pricy suvs. Let them eat cake!

Solid ride - 2004 Kia Sorento
By Canadian Sorento - September 22 - 1:43 amOur choice was between the Ford Escape and the Sorento. Ford only had a 2 year 60,000km warranty vs the Kia at 100,000km and 5 years. The Sorento had more space for about the same money. Also had more airbags and side crash bars than the Escape.

Love It - 2004 Kia Sorento
By llvdrivers - August 29 - 2:00 amVery sporty looking vehicle. It has a strong engine, although it is a little noisy. The workmanship seems to be high quality, and the vehicle has an awful lot of great features for a reasonable price.
