CarGurus Analysis: 2018 Kia Sorento

Summary
With 1,562 currently listed for sale and an average price of $12,430, 30.7% of 2018 Kia Sorentos for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2018 Kia Sorento 4.6 / 5 stars.
60.5% of 2018 Sorento models on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2018 Kia Sorento stands out as a well-rounded midsize SUV that blends style, space, and value. By this generation, Kia had given the Sorento a more rounded shape and a larger footprint, and the cabin benefited from improved materials and more passenger room. It also offered a more family-friendly layout than before, with a third row that was more accommodating than earlier Sorentos, though still best suited to kids. Owners also tend to praise its comfortable interior, smooth driving experience, and spacious feel.
For 2018, the Sorento’s appeal came from its broad mix of powertrains and features. The lineup included a 185-horsepower 2.4-liter four-cylinder, a 240-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder, and a 290-horsepower 3.3-liter V6, all paired with a six-speed automatic transmission. It also offered standard rear parking sensors and available forward collision and lane-departure warnings, along with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration. That combination made it easy to see why the Sorento was considered a strong value for family buyers.
There are tradeoffs, though. The base four-cylinder was described as too weak for the larger Sorento, and the V6 was noted as the best choice for those who needed the third row. Fuel economy also varied widely by engine, with the base four-cylinder estimated at 20/27 mpg city/highway, the turbo version at 21/28 mpg, and the V6 at 18/25 mpg. Even so, the 2018 Sorento remained distinctive for offering a practical, feature-rich package with a more upscale feel than many shoppers might expect.

How much does the 2018 Kia Sorento cost?
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Current Average Price | $12,425 |
| Year-Round Low | $12,346 |
| Year-Round High | $13,353 |
| Average Price a Year Ago | $13,353 |
| Change vs. Last Year | −6.95% |
Prices have softened 6.95% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.
There are 1,554 listings available, which suggests you have a solid pool of options to compare.
Is the 2018 Kia Sorento a good car?
Yes — the 4.6/5 user rating points to strong owner satisfaction. Owners consistently praise the stylish design, comfortable interior, smooth driving experience, and spacious feel, while also noting its family-friendly layout and good value. The Sorento’s mix of space, comfort, and practical features makes it a sensible choice if you want a midsize SUV that works well for family use. With 31.1% of listings marked as good or great deals, there is meaningful market opportunity if you shop carefully.
Is the 2018 Kia Sorento reliable?
Owners rate it 4.6/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
The owner feedback also highlights dependable everyday comfort, with many drivers describing it as smooth, trouble-free to live with, and a vehicle they can count on for family duty. Some owners do mention concerns about power and potential mechanical issues, especially with the V6 engine, so used buyers should pay close attention to service history and condition. For long-term ownership, that means the safest path is a well-documented example that has been inspected thoroughly before you commit.
What should I look for when buying a used 2018 Kia Sorento?
At 60.4% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
You should start with a vehicle history report so you can confirm accident records, title status, and ownership patterns before you visit in person. Then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the listing has higher mileage or incomplete maintenance records. Focus your condition check on the drivetrain, interior wear, and any signs that the vehicle has been repaired after a collision.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2018 Kia Sorento?
This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can be choosy if you shop with a clear target.
- Deal availability: 31.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 1,554 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 6.95% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 60.4% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $12,346, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2018 Kia Sorento's resale value?
The current average of $12,425 sits slightly below last year's $13,353.
That softer pricing can help you buy at a more favorable entry point, but it also means future resale gains may be more limited if the market stays soft. If you plan to sell later, condition and documentation will matter more because buyers will compare your vehicle against a fairly broad supply of listings. A clean history and strong maintenance records should help you stand out when it is time to trade or sell.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.6/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2018 Kia Sorento or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2018 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2018 if:
- 31.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 60.4% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 6.95% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4.6/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
Consider the 2017 if:
- At $11,325, the 2017 costs less than the current year's $12,425 average.
- It emphasizes durability and ownership confidence.
Consider the 2019 if:
- At $13,785, the 2019 costs more than the current year's $12,425 average.
- It adds updates, a more luxurious feel, and top crash-test ratings.
The bottom line:
The 2018 is the best fit if you want a balanced mix of value, comfort, and family-friendly utility at a lower price than newer alternatives. If you are especially price-sensitive, the 2017 is the better budget path; if you want more updates and are willing to pay more, the 2019 is the stronger upgrade choice.
