Reviews SummaryBeing fuel-efficient and stylish are just two of the 2021 Kia Sorento Hybrid’s positive attributes. The fresh three-row offering from Kia has something its three-row Telluride doesn’t: a hybrid option. The Sorento Hybrid is more capable than before, but some design decisions have left us questioning if it’s better to just go with the tried and true Toyota Highlander Hybrid instead. | |
Reviews SummaryThe angular new Tucson arrives with enough space, a fresh-look cabin, and a refined suspension to compete within the superheated compact crossover segment. And, with the hybrid powertrain, it delivers compelling performance and driving dynamics, too. Small families and shoppers looking for an engaging car capable of handling all types of day-to-date duties will want to keep this one on their list of options. | |
