How much does the 2022 Kia Sorento cost?

Prices have softened 13.65% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 3,085 listings available, which suggests solid inventory for shoppers comparing trims and prices.

Is the 2022 Kia Sorento a good car?

Yes — the 2022 Kia Sorento earns a 4.7/5 user rating and an 8.7/10 expert rating. The model scores 10/10 across Look and feel and Cost effectiveness.

Owners consistently praise its modern design, spacious interior, and family-friendly features like third-row seating. They also highlight its performance and fuel economy, which helps it feel more appealing than basic transportation for everyday use.

The trade-offs are clear: the base engine is underwhelming, the third row is cramped, and the voice recognition system is poor. Even so, the Sorento fits well if you want a polished three-row SUV with a strong warranty and useful family features.

With 35.2% of listings marked as good or great deals, there’s a decent amount of value-oriented inventory to consider.

Is the 2022 Kia Sorento reliable?

Owners rate it 4.7/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback points to a reliable, family-friendly SUV that many shoppers can count on for daily use. It also emphasizes the Sorento’s modern design, spacious cabin, and practical features, which are the kinds of traits that usually support confidence over time.

From the expert side, the Sorento’s solid construction and generous warranty reinforce its dependability. Kia also includes a strong set of safety and convenience technologies, which adds to the sense that this is built for long-term ownership.

For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that lower trims may feel less satisfying if you expect stronger power or richer equipment.

What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Kia Sorento?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 82.9% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still check the history report carefully and prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if you’re considering a higher-mileage example. Focus on overall condition, trim-specific equipment, and whether the vehicle has the features you want, since the Sorento’s equipment varies meaningfully by trim.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base LX is the least equipped version, while higher trims add more upscale cabin materials and more standard convenience features. The SX Prestige stands out for its more comfortable driver’s seat and heated second-row captain’s chairs, and the X-Line treatment adds rugged styling, a lifted suspension, and standard all-wheel drive.
• Powertrain: The standard 191-horsepower 2.5-liter four-cylinder is described as unremarkable, while the turbocharged 2.5-liter is the more satisfying choice. The lineup also includes hybrid and plug-in hybrid versions for shoppers who want better efficiency.
• Safety package: Kia Drive Wise is standard, but its contents vary by trim. The suite includes features such as rear-seat reminder, Junction Assist, adaptive cruise-related functions, Highway Driving Assist, and a Blind View Monitor that is exclusive to the SX Prestige X-Line.
• Infotainment: The base LX keeps an 8-inch touchscreen, while other trims get a 10.25-inch display with navigation, satellite radio, Kia Connect services, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. The larger system requires a cable connection, while the base system offers wireless smartphone integration.
• Fuel efficiency: The gas-only turbo setup is rated at 24 mpg in combined driving, while the hybrid is rated between 35 mpg and 37 mpg in combined driving. The plug-in hybrid can travel 32 miles on electricity and returns 34 mpg in combined driving.

Which 2022 Kia Sorento trim should I buy?

The 2022 Kia Sorento is offered in 5 trim levels: LX, S, EX, SX, SX Prestige.

Here's the short version:

• LX: This is the entry point, and it makes sense if you want the lowest starting price and can live with the simpler 8-inch infotainment setup and the base engine.
• S: This trim is a better everyday pick if you want more equipment than the LX without moving too far up the price ladder.
• EX: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it unlocks the more satisfying turbocharged engine and adds meaningful convenience upgrades.
• SX: Choose this if you want a more premium feel and are willing to pay for additional equipment and refinement.
• SX Prestige: This is the top choice if you want the most comfort and the richest feature set, including the most upscale cabin touches and the strongest available equipment list.

Kia Drive Wise is standard across the lineup, but the exact contents vary by trim, and the Blind View Monitor is exclusive to the SX Prestige X-Line.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Kia Sorento?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile listings.

• Deal availability: 35.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 3,085 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 13.65% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 82.9% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $22,551, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 Kia Sorento's resale value?

The current average of $22,551 sits slightly below last year's $26,117.

That price drop suggests the Sorento has become more affordable for used buyers, which can help demand from shoppers looking for value. For a future seller, that means resale performance may depend heavily on condition, mileage, and trim, since the market is currently rewarding well-kept examples more than average ones.

Because the year’s pricing has softened, you may not see the same upside you would in a tighter market. Still, a well-maintained Sorento with desirable equipment should remain easier to move than a stripped or heavily worn example.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.7/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2022 Kia Sorento safe?

The 2022 Sorento earns a Top Safety Pick from IIHS and a four-star overall crash-test rating from NHTSA, with four-star ratings for driver and front passenger protection in frontal impact and for rollover resistance, and five-star ratings in all other NHTSA tests.

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

Kia Drive Wise is standard on every 2022 Sorento, though the exact contents vary by trim. The system includes features such as rear-seat reminder, Junction Assist, adaptive cruise-related functions, Highway Driving Assist, and a Blind View Monitor that is exclusive to the SX Prestige X-Line.

One caveat is that the headlights on most trims do not earn the highest IIHS rating; the best-rated headlights are reserved for the SX and SX Prestige trims.

Should I buy a 2022 Kia Sorento or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 35.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 82.9% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 13.65% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.7/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2022 adds meaningful updates, including a standard 10.25-inch infotainment system on most trims and expanded X-Line availability.

Consider the 2021 if:

• At $19,807, the 2021 costs less than the current year's $22,551 average.
• It offers a redesigned three-row SUV with strong all-around appeal and standard advanced safety features.

The bottom line: Choose the 2022 if you want the better-equipped version with more standard tech and a broader feature set. If your priority is saving money, the 2021 is the better path, especially if you can find one in good condition with the equipment you want.
