With 132 currently listed for sale and an average price of $11,650, 39.4% of 2018 Kia Sorento listings on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2018 Kia Sorento 4.6 / 5 stars.

Why it stands out
The 2018 Kia Sorento stands out as a midsize SUV that blends style, space, and a broad feature set in a way that makes it appealing to family shoppers. By this point in its third generation, the Sorento had grown into a more substantial vehicle with improved passenger room and a more refined interior, while still keeping the practical, value-oriented character that has long defined the model. It also offered a strong mix of safety and convenience equipment, including standard rear parking sensors and available forward collision and lane-departure warnings, which helped it feel more modern and family-friendly.
What makes the 2018 Sorento especially distinctive is the range of powertrains and equipment it offered. 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 delivered respectable fuel economy for the class, with the base four-cylinder estimated at up to 20/27 mpg city/highway, the turbo version at 21/28 mpg, and the V6 at 18/25 mpg. For buyers who wanted more comfort and flexibility, the Sorento’s available third row and improved cabin quality added to its appeal.
There are tradeoffs, though. The base four-cylinder was described as too weak for the larger Sorento, and the third row was still best suited to smaller passengers. Even so, the 2018 Sorento remained a compelling choice because it combined useful space, available all-wheel drive, and a well-rounded feature list in a package that felt more polished than earlier Sorentos.

Is the 2018 Kia Sorento a good car?
Yes — the 2018 Kia Sorento earns a 4.6/5 user rating, which points to strong owner satisfaction.
Owners consistently praise its stylish design, comfortable interior, smooth driving experience, and spaciousness. The review summary also highlights its safety features and overall value, which fits well if you want a family-friendly midsize SUV with a practical, well-rounded feel.
With 31.5% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have a decent chance of finding a competitive offer if you shop carefully.
Is the 2018 Kia Sorento reliable?
Owners rate it 4.6/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
The review summary points to a vehicle that many owners find dependable in everyday use, with praise for its comfortable ride and overall value. At the same time, some owners mention potential mechanical issues, so reliability looks strongest when you focus on well-maintained examples.
For used buyers, that means long-term ownership risk is manageable, but only if you verify maintenance history and avoid neglected listings.
What should I look for when buying a used 2018 Kia Sorento?
At 59.2% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
You should start with a vehicle history report and confirm whether any reported damage was repaired properly. Then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially on higher-mileage examples or any listing with incomplete service records.
Pay close attention to overall condition, signs of uneven wear, and how the vehicle drives, since those clues can reveal whether a Sorento has been cared for consistently.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2018 Kia Sorento?

If you find a listing below $12,252, 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 $12,277 sits slightly below last year's $13,271.
That softer pricing suggests the model has become more accessible for buyers, but it also means future sellers may face some pressure if market conditions stay similar. If you buy well and keep the vehicle in strong condition, you can help protect your value over time.
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:
- 31.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 59.2% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 7.49% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4.6/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
Consider the 2017 if:
- At $11,091, the 2017 costs less than the current year's $12,277 average.
- It emphasizes broad balance, comfort, and practicality with strong overall appeal.
Consider the 2019 if:
- At $13,797, the 2019 costs more than the current year's $12,277 average.
- It adds updates, a more upscale feel, and top crash-test confidence.
The bottom line: The 2018 is the best fit if you want a well-liked, value-oriented Sorento at a softer price than newer alternatives. If your priority is saving money, the 2017 is the better budget path; if you want more updates and are willing to pay more, the 2019 is the stronger upgrade path.
