Model YearAccident-Free %
202697.1%

201561.7%
201461.7%

Older model years carry meaningfully higher accident rates, so always verify the vehicle history report on pre-2021 models.

Key things to evaluate:

  • Safety package: Highway Driving Assist is standard on all 2025 Sorento models except for the LX, and SX and SX Prestige add lane-changing functionality to create a Highway Driving Assist 2 (HDA 2) system.
  • Infotainment: every 2025 Sorento has wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
  • Fuel efficiency: the Sorento LX and S return up to 26 mpg in combined driving, while the turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder is rated at 23 mpg in combined driving.

Which Kia Sorento trim should I buy?

The 2025 Kia Sorento offers these trims:

  • LX: This is the entry point, and it pairs the 191-horsepower 2.5-liter four-cylinder with an eight-speed automatic transmission. It suits budget-minded shoppers who want the Sorento’s core size and utility.
  • S: This trim keeps the same base powertrain and adds more equipment for everyday use, making it a sensible step up if you want a little more content without moving into the turbo models.
  • EX: This trim moves to the turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder and can take the X-Line appearance package, so it brings a stronger engine and a more upscale feel.
  • SX: This trim also gets the turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder and can add the X-Line appearance package, making it a good fit if you want more performance and a more distinctive look.
  • SX Prestige: This is the best-value trim, because it combines the turbocharged engine with the X-Line package as standard and adds a more premium overall presentation.
  • X-Pro SX Prestige: This top version adds exclusive front and rear bumper covers, enhanced utility roof rails, unique matte-black 17-inch wheels with all-terrain tires, and an improvement in towing capacity to 4,500 pounds.

Should I buy a used Kia Sorento now or wait for the next model?

Buy now if:

  • Price trend: The 2025 model is at −8.44% versus a year ago, and the 2024 model is at −7.78%.
  • Deal availability: The 2025 model has 34.6% good and great deals, and the 2024 model has 35.6%.
  • Sweet-spot year: The 2023 model has the most listings at a current average price of $27,495. The Kia Sorento offers a spacious, family-friendly cabin with a broad mix of comfort and practicality.

Consider waiting if:

  • Powertrain/efficiency: The latest Sorento pairs a 191-horsepower 2.5-liter four-cylinder with an eight-speed automatic transmission, while the turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder generates 281 horsepower and 311 pound-feet of torque.
  • Tech: Every 2025 Sorento has wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus Digital Key technology and a surround-view camera system.
  • Safety: Highway Driving Assist is standard on all 2025 Sorento models except for the LX, and SX and SX Prestige add lane-changing functionality to create a Highway Driving Assist 2 (HDA 2) system.
  • Starting price: The base Sorento LX starts at less than $35,000.

If you're buying used today, the 2023 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the latest tech and features, it may be worth waiting for the next model year's inventory to build up.
