Overview & Reviews
The optional sport package now includes blacked-out headlamps and, on LX models, a premium audio system. A five-speed automatic transmission replaces last year's four-speed unit.
- Great value, long list of standard features, high-quality interior materials, solid construction, true off-road capability, lengthy warranty coverage.
- Mediocre fuel economy, harsh ride over sharp bumps.

Sorento - 2005 Kia Sorento
By ric - January 13 - 11:03 pmI am on my 4th Kia and have never been happier with a car, My Sorento is the best SUV I have ever owned. All my friends comment on how little I paid for it and how well it is built and the standard features are the best on the market.

Rain, ice, and snow - 2005 Kia Sorento
By fully loaded - January 10 - 2:30 pmMy fully loaded Sorento that I purchased last week was very impressive through a major northeast storm. During a 40 mile commute that lasted 5 hours, I was never uncomfortable. Since I know every road between work and home I left the highway several times to look for a better way, and witnessed people not able to navigate the smallest of inclines, I was tempted to pass the expensive cars known to Greenwhich CT as they fish tailed back and forth but the on coming traffic proved to be a bad idea for passing.The Sorento kept up with every inch with no slipping. Very impressed with handling and comfort.

Yes, buy a Kia - 2005 Kia Sorento
By BretAndStaci - December 30 - 5:56 amWe really enjoy our new Kia Sorento. It is very comfortable, lots of room, drives great. We needed to have the digital clock fixed within a week other then that no problems as of yet. For the money, you get what you pay for and more with the Kia Sorento.

Fun little SUV - 2005 Kia Sorento
By Lori - December 13 - 4:30 pmThis is a fun SUV to drive. It turns tightly and maneuvers easily. Gas mileage is ok but much better than the Suburban I used to drive. The seats are comfortable and roomy as well as lots of head room. The Sorento has a quick acceleration and does well in the mountains. At times it rides like a truck when you go over bumps. The interior is noisy. Overall, I could not have gotten a better quality SUV with all the bells and whistles at such a reasonable price.

MY First Kia - 2005 Kia Sorento
By Rita - December 5 - 6:33 amWe are very excited to be the proud owners of a new 2005 Kia Sorento!!! We got a great deal on a great vehicle. We have the luxury package on our Sorento (nice leather and several extras). We have not been able to use the "snow" option yet as the weather has been mild this year. Everything works perfectly and we love the sun/moon roof. This is the first vehicle we have every owned with a sunroof. We look forward to several years of dependable service from our Sorento. Kia has strict maintenance policies to follow to insure the 10 year warranty and we plan to abide by their policy. A great luxury vehicle at a modest price.

Fit for a Princess! - 2005 Kia Sorento
By Princess in Miss. - November 20 - 7:30 amThis is truly a very nice SUV worth much, much more than what we paid for it. Eveyone comments on how it looks like the new Lexus SUVs. My husband purchased it for me as a Christmas gift. It is so comfortable to drive and easy to handle. I thought it would be a little hard to manage but it rides very well. If you are thinking about buying one - do it! You will not be disappointed.

BEST RIDE FOR THE DOLLAR - 2005 Kia Sorento
By Eddie - November 16 - 2:40 amFantastic looks, and quality, purchased mine after rebates for under 20 grand, LX auto with lots of accessories. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a midsize SUB and on a budget. Decent gas mileage; I get 21 on highway drives and about 15.5 in city.
