KIA Sorento; Dedicated Discussion, Owner/ Fan Club Thread

Too expensive.

Seems like prices are meant to increase Fortuner sales even further.

They kinda ruined the opportunity of overtaking the 7 seater segment.

[Nabeel_Ali]

A bit high.
Awd should been for 75.
V6 will cost 9 million after taxes.
Atleast 5 lacs more expensive all variants.

[umairzafar]

Why 1 million difference between 2.4L fwd vs 2.4L Awd

[pwuser159259702854]

The only reasonable priced version in fwd 2.4L I think it will be successful

[pwuser159259702854]

But still I think awd 2.4 is the best option out of all it has all the features and has the plus of having AWD I’m probably going with it

[pwuser159259702854]

Does anyone know when Sorento is coming to dealerships and when booking starts

[firewolf]

2.4L AWD has 6 Air bags as compared to 2 in 2.4FWD, powered tailgate, electronically adjustable front passenger seat, alloy spare wheel vs steel and most importantly it is AWD ....lol

[pwuser159259702854]

Awd is definitely worth it and and is the best variant in my view v6 won’t be a success

[BuzzChuzz]

Clifton dealership at Karachi took contact numbers to revert on bookings etc.

[firewolf]

Yeah too expensive. Should have been priced around Honda Civic Turbo or Toyota Grande

[pwuser159259702854]

Lol I don’t know why people are complaining in 70lacs you are getting a 7 seater and people are still complaining

[wasiqshahab94]

Should have been priced around Honda Civic Turbo or Toyota Grande

I hope you're being sarcastic.

[pwuser159259702854]

Can someone recommend what is better looking on Sorento mercury blue or panthera metal

[pwuser159259702854]

I heard booking and display at dealerships will start tomorrow or the day after but nothing official for now let’s see

[omerk]

Booking will start on Friday. Expecting people in line with pay orders

[fazalwahab11375]

The FWD 3.5L 3rd gen older Sorento is right there next to 3.5L FWD CBU current generation Carnival.. as far as price..

[usman19854]

Useless pricing
Old gen car
Our govt thinks it is developing an auto industry, phassay rahenge hum yahin

[ali454]

The genius who came up with the idea to market Sorento by featuring a desi stig giving (spirited) rides in a 7 seater deserves a genuine standing ovation.

I dont know what kind of education is needed to grow brains.

[mis030]

Agreed. Pricing on average is about PKR 400K to 500K higher.

AWD in particular is quite disappointing!

Still, given reg costs are abt 300K more expensive for V6, plus the 400K price difference, still feel AWD is the right choice.

For those who do not care about AWD too much, thr base model is actually a very attractive offering, with a better interior color in my opinion.

Bookings and test drives starting Friday.

Was able to get my hand on the official brochure they'll release on Friday - enjoy!

Fwd 2.4 is a nice option and the most reasonably priced but awd imo is the best variant whereas v6 just because of it being FWD is not going to be successful
