After Sportage, Camouflaged Kia Sorento Spotted in Pakistan

Yesterday, a couple of camouflaged Kia Sportage photos circulated on social media, hinting at a possible launch of the car’s hybrid 5th generation in Pakistan. And now it seems this is not the only car Lucky Motors is planning to launch in the country, as a similar picture of the Kia Sorento has also surfaced. The said picture has the same black-and-white camouflage showing a part of the headlights, hinting that it is the latest generation.

Furthermore, there are reports that the company, just like Sportage, will launch the latest Sorento with hybrid technology, meaning that in the coming days, there will be increasing competition in the HEV segment in the local market as companies like Toyota, Sazgar, and Hyundai are already entered. Meanwhile, here is that emerged photo:
