Here's the thing about the SUV market these days: it's hard to find a vehicle that doesn't impress critics and drivers. It's a well-established segment, and for customers looking for spacious, stylish, and tough vehicles, it's usually a matter of personal preference. But, if you're looking for the best SUV on the market, look no further than the Kia Sorento . We're not just saying that, either, as the Sorento has not only been named a "Top Safety Pick" by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, it also received a 5-Star Side-Impact Crash Test Rating from the NHTSA. And, most recently, Total 4x4 named in the "Best SUV" - for the second year in a row.

Why the Sorento? Well, editors at the UK publication applaud the SUV for a number of reasons, saying "The Sorento was our reigning champion in the full-size SUV class, and it impressed us every bit as much this year as last. Its style, poise, kit and practicality all score heavily in its favour."¹ Michael Cole, Managing Director of Kia Motors (UK) says, "From the day of its launch we knew that the latest Sorento continued the car's impressive record of delivering excellent go-anywhere ability couple with on-road sophistication at a great value price."²

With a five- or seven-seat layout, it's popular among many different types of drivers. It also helps that it comes with a seven-year warranty, a choice between two- or four-wheel drive, a choice between four- or six-cylinder engines, and a slew of technology and safety features. The reliability, towing capabilities, and impressive handling in all types of weather are simply a steal with a starting MSRP that hovers just around $20,000.

Total 4x4 made a point to say, "Make no mistake, this award wasn't about just being cheap. The Sorento beat a long list of premium opponents because it's very good at everything that matters. Its bargain price and unbeatable seven year warranty merely seal the deal."³

We couldn't possibly have said it better. Stop in to the Paul Cerame Kia Showroom and see the award winning Kia Sorento for yourself.
