Yes please a tyre review that includes what you lose or gain out of choosing a specific tyre . Great job Paul as always . Wish you a 100 k more subscribers this year 😅
I like how some brands are beginning to remove model designations. Mazda really does a great job about this because basically every spec excluding some special editions look the same.
I watch all your videos Paul, and really appreciate that you make a point of mentioning what the spare tyre status is on each review. I am sure that those of us from rural areas are grateful for this information, as it is rarely mentioned by other reviewers. Your consistent format is also of great assistance for those of us actually comparing when looking to purchase.
We bought a MY22 Sports+ in blue last year in diesel AWD. It is an absolute pleasure to drive and look forward to it each day. Averaging about 850km per tank of fuel and it has smooth power when we need it. Got lucky when I called around dealers and they had a cancellation order on the car and it was on the boat coming over. All other dealers were quoting 9 month wait on Sports+ and over 12 months on GT Line.
12 months? There there goes our interest in the GT. 22 plated car in 23. I cant justify the purchase or the wait. Ahh well you got lucky enjoy it mate :)
I own a 2.2 diesel 4wd version with 8 speed DCT transmission in the UK and have had it for eighteen months. The spec is very similar to the one above part from mine having the fully digital dashboard in front of the driver. I have a wireless phone charger as well. Some of the plastics that are matte finish in the video’d car are gloss piano-black on the centre console on mine. I prefer the matte finish. Window blinds in the rear doors are another extra on mine. No push button to release the second row on mine though although it might be on current production. I think the car is brilliant and a match for my previous Volvo XC90 in every way. It’s a pity that in the UK only the mid-spec model that lacks a panoramic roof, memory seats, head up display and the side cameras with dash display when indicating or a car is overtaking. The Diesel engine and transmission are every bit a match for the Volvo XC90 and fuel economy here in hilly West Wales with hardly any freeways averages a genuine 39mpg Imperial or 7.24l/100kms The diesel is certainly NOT lazy. It’s 0-100km time is pretty much the same at the test car’s and it has far superior torque from very low revs which the super-fast and responsive Wet DCT makes the very best of.
@@hedydd2 I'm also from the UK, but I'm still not sure to either go with the diesel or the plug in hybrid. I like the diesel because we do go abroad a couple times during the year but because of all the new ULEZ I'm scared it will be more of a annoyance than anything else. But the 1.6l petrol doesn't seem like a engine that will be efficient on long journeys, because of the weight of the car. I'm also considering the plug in Toyota Rav4
@@shithead4767 I average a genuine 38mpg long term with my Sorento diesel and did a fast journey to Cornwall and back, a total of over 700 miles, at 39mpg with two on board plus luggage. It is capable of 42mpg when taking it easy, but down to 32 when hammering it. Only added 15 litres to the tank to get home on the 720 mile journey with plenty spare.
@@shithead4767 If you live in town and do mainly urban journeys than are mostly short and/or slow speed, the petrol is by far the best choice. If you live and drive outside town and mainly do journeys that are 10 miles or much longer and especially if you have your own diesel fuel storage, then the diesel is for you. The fuel economy of the petrol is also quite good by all accounts.
12:20 - something jc will never get to do, even in a KIA Also agree with your take on the styling, this looks better than the Santa Fe, fwiw I think it looks better than a CX9 as well
At 4:17 you describe the smart key’s features. You even mention that it has remote start. I have this model and it doesn’t have that feature. The button to which you refer only unlocks the car. You had me all excited for a minute while I tried to get it to work.
Hmm - it definitely worked on our car. Could it have been removed as a parts shortage thing? Just confirming you’ve tried pushing lock and then holding the button that says hold?
I bought a diesel sport plus in October 2021.... 4 week wait... very happy... 2500km on it now and it is a dream to drive... loads of torque.. comfy... really a great family suv... love it .. Dislike---- stereo speaker quality, android auto not full screen,
Enjoyed your review Paul. I personally favour 'fatter' tyres as in '55 to 60' ratio. Massive improvement in ride & reduced hitting rims on gutters. All at the expense of cat-like road holding.
How good are these korean car in long term? I owned a honda for the last 10 years, and nothing to replace except due to wear and tear. Are they build to the same quality?
I'm on my 3rd diesel one now. I got my first in late 2020 then the second mid 2021 and have just up spec'd to a 2022 in black with 22" wheels between these 3 i've traveled around 30000 km awsum suv so comfortable on long trips and i get about 1000 km + on combined cycle from a tank . I towed our 7m caravan around over christmas and you can hardly tell it's there.
I’ve had the sport+ diesel on order since Sept 21, dealer called me and said he has a GTline diesel coming in and would I like to jump the queue. I did. Delivery next week. Someone must have cancelled with late notice.
The lack of badges really annoys me, my daughter just bought a 2022 sportage GT Line, no badges. When you pay 55K for the top model, you expect Kia to label the car. You need to be a car fanatic to know the difference between that model and the base. It is a very poor practice by Kia and others. Badges on the very top models should be included.
We bought 2022 Kia top of the line here in NZ,pretty great packed with features and you just can't complain about it. Pretty good product from Kia but waited 7 Months to get it and had to compromise colour.
I have ordered in Feb'21! Finally it will arrive by end of Mar'22. Current wait time is around 10-12 months, and apparently dealer can only take orders for 70 cars!
I had the Sorento model before the 2019 EX diesel 4WD 8 sp auto a brilliant car ( my last trip with it a 1000km through the South Island in NZ average fuel 1liter :13.5 KM ) , have traded it in for a Sportage Diesel 4 WD now also a Brilliant car ....looooove KIA DIESELS
In Germany this Sorento is sold without a (temporary) spare. Also it's not available as an option. Good to see it actually is possible to have one fitted. Pity the ground clearance is only 17 cm, otherwise a very attractive SUV! If you can get one 🙂
I had recently driven a rental Kia Carnival on a round trip from Melbourne to Adelaide & to be honest, came away very impressed how comfortable the 8 seater SUV was. It was fully loaded with 8 passengers & the boot full to the brim with suitcases etc. The engine was punchy & the cabin noise was minimal,even on coarse chipped country roads. The only problem I had over a 2,500 km road trip was a glitch on the touch screen entertainment unit in Adelaide CBD. The screen went completely blank, when I tapped on CarPlay.
I'd also be very interested in getting Android Auto using the full display! That has been something which has made me a little hesitant to make the jump.
We don’t get the V6 in Europe, but since it doesn’t have AWD, maybe I’d say we’re not missing out on the V6 Sorento. Edit: the AWD V6 isn’t available in Ozzyland.
Unfortunately, in the United States, Kia dropped the V6 as an engine option in the Sorento. The last year this option was available was 2020. The Turbo 4 and Dual Clutch have been very troublesome. I keep reading horrific customer problems related to engine and transmission failures. So this alone opens the door for the Honda Passport. I do not see similar issues with the Telluride. Perhaps it is due to the continued use of a V6 and standard 8 speed transmission. Space and mileage are important - but reliability always tops the "must have" list.
I'm actually tossing up between GT line and the 2021 carnival to purchase next year some time. Would love some feedback from anyone who has a car similar in size to the gt line, what it's like to have 3 kids seats across the middle row (2 booster, 1 baby seat). Are they squished in or is there enough room that they don't look and feel like they are all up against each other. I currently have a commy and I love how roomy the second row feels with the seats in :)
We love our 2018 V6 Sorento and would buy another one in a heart beat. As a large family it's a bit of a shame to see that the new one doesn't appear to have the 40/20/40 second row seat anymore, or the adjustable cup holders in the front. I do like that they have finally added anchor points in the third row though.
Agree the Sorrento looks better at the front but the Santa Fe looks better at the back. Interior is much better in the Santa Fe though. Personal opinion
Awesome car, love the styling inside and out (except for the tail lights). I would get the diesel but only with a torque converter auto. Does it come in that configuration? Dual clutch is probably trouble.
Nope, you need to endure a DCT where crawling in traffic and low speed work is clutch slip city. They should fit a torque converter to enable low speed work without clutch slip like Honda / Acura have done.
Hi, Love your reviews and check them out before we buy a new car. Did you work out how to make the Android Auto full screen? Just ordered this model and I'll be interested in how to do this. Thanks
I would just say that we had this car for 2 weeks as a hire car with 3 kids in car seats and it was very cramped getting one into the boot. Our standard carnival is a lot better with the little ones compared to the Sorento
@@daweigo6851 I understand completely, I'm just trying to help people who have 3 or more kids and they're unsure of the differences that you find in day to day living with a car vs test driving one for 15 minutes
Hey Paul great video. Have you got the Kia Cerato GT in the pipeline for a review. I’m about to order mine tomorrow. There is about an 8 month wait for one at the moment so would be keen to see you do a review on it before it’s delivered later this year.
I didn't even know this generation was available with a V6! In North America, instead of the V6, we have the 4 cylinder 2.5 turbo with the dual-clutch 8 speed and all-wheel drive.
Question for the Australians here: Is Fuel pricing in Australia expensive or cheap? Would a non-hybrid V6 be considered as thirsty for the Australian car buyer? Or are Australian income levels high enough that they can afford the fuel consumption of a non-hybrid V6?
I've got a 2021 Kia Sorento and done plenty of research on the 10.25" screen regarding Android Auto, and you cannot change the settings to fullscreen :(
Mate, I think its about time to buy your own specialized gear timer to test those cars in 0-60 when you do the sprint. But Mat Watsons special gear is much more nice if you have that. Hehe. You can purchase that on some on line shops and have it deliver right at your doorstep!
If the lines are clear it works wonderfully, otherwise it gets a bit dangerous. Doesn’t recognise traffic lights and whilst it works well if there’s a car driving ahead of you, it does not work well if you’re driving onto a stopped traffic situation
Drove my friend’s new Sport+ V6 on a road trip a couple of weeks ago. Besides from a flashing engine light, loss of power and severe vibration at one point (possible engine misfiring??) it was smooth, quiet and effortless. I just found the front seats to be way too firm, especially on a long trip. Some other little annoying niggles I noticed: You can’t unbuckle the third row seat belts, and only get a pair of flimsy plastic clips to hold them back. The retractable boot cover is pretty cheap and nasty. And the adaptive cruise control is a bit unpredictable and not as intuitive as the VW/Skoda system I’m used to.
I drive a KIA Sorento UM. Indeed, it’s a very good looking & well built vehicle to own. However, I noticed there’s a design flaw which is not being rectified by KIA even in the latest Sorento & Carnival. It’s also not mentioned or brought up by many well known journalists, at least from those many reviews I have watched on TH-cam.
Have a 2020 V6 Sport in Mineral Blue. Have had some foibles with the car being back to the dealer twice (1 time a full week) to try and get the engine to start and run smoothly when cold. Still not running well but at least it starts. Other issues being a failure at the factory to hook up electrical wires in the centre console. Still does weird things electrically wise. I can tolerate all of this but what I cannot cope with is the completely manic lane keep assist. It nearly drags the wheel from your hands at really weird times. Unfortunately you cannot permanently turn the damn thing off. Would I buy another Sorrento…..hmmmm probably not. Shame it really is a big good looking car but I find it hard to trust.
I wish they offered petrol variants with AWD… not everyone wants diesel. Too manly brands are not giving AWD options for petrol variants and only again in diesel or hybrid
The base spec Sportage a lot of reviewers have complained about lethargic 2.0na eng 112kw Kia I've got a solution drop this V6 eng in Sportage or have it as a option
I reckon that the Kia Sorento is one of the best looking mid sized SUV's on the market.. and yes better looking than the Santa Fe for sure..
I agree
Disagree
It’s subjective.
Disagree and it’s certainly not mid size in australia
Agree - great looking machine
I just purchased a 2022 Kia Sorrento. I live in Arizona. I fell in love with the black wheels and the sparkling silver color. Love love love my car.😎

Kia and Hyundai are killing it lately with their designs..Sorento looks so damn good.. I would gladly get one of it was available on our shore..
Very impressive this brand has certainly grown i for sure will be looking forward to buying one

For RHD markets, the V6 can only be had with Front Wheel Drive.

Hi, really love your super detailed car reviews. Just wanted to ask if you are going to do a review of the Sorento HEV as well (Not plug-in)?
Yes, video on tyres ✅
Thoughts on the reliability Paul? Lots of transmissions are going in these things.
Do we know if Australia will get the wolf grey colour same as the kia stinger?
How tall are you?Just trying to gauge how high/tall the car is?
185cm - 6’1”
I wouldn't trade our 2018 FE/AWD for nothing...great all-around vehicle...
Definitely looks better in many ways than the Santa Fe.
What's the difference between the 2021 model and 2022 model other than the logo change?
For the tyre explanation any chance including the different options for spare tyres/repair kits and how well they work and ease to do
Yes please, we need more information on tyres :-)

Kia design language looks way better than Hyundai
Do comparison between kia sorrento hybrid vs kluger hybrid
Sounds better than the XC60 B6 I test drove earlier
Really ? Can it be more solid than a volvo ?
I suppose in some ways it is like a....Falcon, big, smooth engine, lots of room and soft suspension 🙂 Sounds good.

New car prices in the states are starting to drop due to higher interest rates. Worth waiting until July onwards before you buy imo.
I wish the v6 was available in South Africa. It is an outdated engine though. But cool nonetheless
I actually wanna see a test of different car assistance systems lane assist and adaptive cruise
yeah. Which cars 'wander' & as for adaptive cruise, some radars don't hold set speed.
If the lines are clear it works wonderfully, otherwise it gets a bit dangerous. Doesn’t recognise traffic lights and whilst it works well if there’s a car driving ahead of you, it does not work well if you’re driving onto a stopped traffic situation

Have a 2020 V6 Sport in Mineral Blue. Have had some foibles with the car being back to the dealer twice (1 time a full week) to try and get the engine to start and run smoothly when cold. Still not running well but at least it starts. Other issues being a failure at the factory to hook up electrical wires in the centre console. Still does weird things electrically wise. I can tolerate all of this but what I cannot cope with is the completely manic lane keep assist. It nearly drags the wheel from your hands at really weird times. Unfortunately you cannot permanently turn the damn thing off. Would I buy another Sorrento…..hmmmm probably not. Shame it really is a big good looking car but I find it hard to trust.
Yes explain tyre no. and letters, thanks Paul.
Looks way better than the Santa Fe
Santa fe or Sorento ? I choose Sorento 🙂🙂
I wish they offered petrol variants with AWD… not everyone wants diesel. Too manly brands are not giving AWD options for petrol variants and only again in diesel or hybrid
A fruity exhaust note. Very nice
The base spec Sportage a lot of reviewers have complained about lethargic 2.0na eng 112kw Kia I've got a solution drop this V6 eng in Sportage or have it as a option
Would have expected better 0-100 time. It's like only 0.3 seconds faster than my manual 2020 Cerato Sport
255mm 55% if 255mm for rim size and wheel size
