How much does the 2014 Kia Sorento cost?

Prices have softened 9.77% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 567 listings available, which gives you a modest amount of inventory to compare before you buy.

Is the 2014 Kia Sorento a good car?

Yes — owners give it 4.55/5, and experts rate it 7.33/10. The standout strength is Safety at 9/10.

Owners consistently praise its reliability, comfort, and features, along with the smooth ride and spacious interior. The overview also points to a crossover that balances style, performance, safety, and substance, which makes it appealing if you want a familiar package with meaningful updates rather than a full redesign. With 27.3% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2014 Kia Sorento reliable?

Owners rate it 4.55/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

User feedback highlights reliability, good value, and a solid family-vehicle feel, while also pointing to a smooth ride and spacious cabin. The expert evaluation also emphasizes lasting build quality and fair pricing, which supports the case for dependable ownership. Kia’s long warranty coverage adds another layer of reassurance for used buyers, though you should still check maintenance history and condition carefully before committing.

What should I look for when buying a used 2014 Kia Sorento?

At 61.7% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle-history report and then prioritize a thorough pre-purchase inspection, especially if you’re considering a higher-mileage example. Pay close attention to interior condition, third-row usability, and any control or equipment issues noted by previous owners. If you want the safest path, focus on listings with clean records and documented maintenance.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base LX starts with the 4-cylinder engine, 17-inch alloy wheels, heated mirrors with integrated LED turn signals, satellite radio, Bluetooth connectivity, and a tilt-telescoping steering wheel with integrated audio controls. Higher trims add features such as dual-zone automatic climate control, leather upholstery, heated front seats, push-button ignition, a panoramic sunroof, navigation, a 10-speaker audio upgrade, blind-spot monitoring, a power liftgate, and heated or cooled front seats.
• Powertrain: You get a standard 4-cylinder engine with a 6-speed automatic, while the available V6 brings more power and stronger towing ability. The V6 also pairs with the same 6-speed automatic and is the better choice if you want more passing punch or plan to tow.
• Safety package: All Sorentos include 6 airbags, front active headrests, 4-wheel antilock disc brakes, and electronic stability control. A rear-view camera is standard in all but LX trims, and blind-spot monitoring is available on higher trims.
• Infotainment: The Sorento offers UVO eServices with an 8-inch touchscreen, voice controls, smartphone-linked navigation, emergency assistance, vehicle diagnostics, destination upload, and music management from multiple sources.
• Fuel efficiency: The front-drive 4-cylinder is rated at 20 mpg city, 26 highway, and 22 combined. The front-drive V6 is rated at 18 mpg city, 25 highway, and 21 combined, and the all-wheel-drive V6 test vehicle returned 24.2 mpg on a long highway run.

Which 2014 Kia Sorento trim should I buy?

The 2014 Kia Sorento is offered in 5 trim levels: LX, LX V6, EX V6, SX, SX-L, or Limited.

Here's the short version:

• LX: This is the entry point, and it gives you the essentials at the lowest price. It’s the trim to consider if you want the Sorento’s core space and safety features without paying for extras.
• LX V6: Choose this if you want the stronger V6 without moving up the trim ladder. It’s the practical step-up for buyers who care more about power and towing than luxury features.
• EX V6: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds a more upscale feel with dual-zone climate control, leather upholstery, heated front seats, push-button ignition, and Kia’s UVO system.
• SX: This trim adds the most noticeable equipment jump, including a panoramic sunroof, navigation, a premium audio upgrade, blind-spot monitoring, a power liftgate, and heated or cooled front seats.
• SX-L, or Limited: This is the luxury-leaning choice, with HID headlights, a heated steering wheel, premium leather seats, and heated second-row seats.

The safety package is standard across the lineup, but the rear-view camera is not included on LX trims.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2014 Kia Sorento?

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so you can shop with some leverage if you’re patient.

• Deal availability: 27.3% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 567 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 9.77% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 61.7% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $7,888, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2014 Kia Sorento's resale value?

The current average of $8,001 sits slightly below last year's $8,867.

That price movement suggests the Sorento has already absorbed some depreciation, which can help future sellers if they buy at the right price. If you shop carefully now, you may have less downside left than you would with a newer, pricier crossover. Strong demand for well-kept examples should help support values, especially for trims with desirable equipment and clean histories.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.55/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2014 Kia Sorento safe?

The 2014 Kia Sorento earns a Top Safety Pick award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and an overall five-star rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

All Sorentos come with 6 airbags, front active headrests, 4-wheel antilock disc brakes, and electronic stability control. A rear-view camera is standard in all but LX trims, and blind-spot monitoring is available on higher trims. The main caveat is that some useful safety tech is not included on the base trim.

Should I buy a 2014 Kia Sorento or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2014 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2014 if:

• 27.3% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 61.7% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 9.77% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.55/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It’s a strategically updated model with meaningful improvements rather than a full redesign.

Consider the 2015 if:

• At $8,456, the 2015 costs more than the current year's $8,001 average.
• It brings a more attractive, well-equipped package with an emphasis on lasting build quality and fair pricing.

The bottom line: If you want the better value play, the 2014 is the stronger starting point because prices have eased and owner satisfaction is solid. If you’re willing to pay more for the next model year’s updated appeal, the 2015 is worth a look, but price-sensitive buyers should focus on the 2014 first.
