Yes relatively in comparison to sportage its a con which is giving 13 km/l having 2000cc with higher weight.

@danishmmh one of my insurance client is waiting a bumper
and fender replacement of his new City and no inventory of parts at dealerships in Karachi. another client is waiting for over a week for windscreen replacement of his pkdm Swift and its not available at dealerships in Karachi.

[danishmmh]

thats what I said KIA is not the one solely doing it they are new entrants, however Big3 doing it is shameful altogether

Dear Sportage owners - Please make this thread little more alive with shots of your ride, interior, detailing, engine bay. Do share journeys you made on new ride and how was the experience and most importantly lesson learned. It would really help others.

Wow! Quite a journey, how was driving experience as you covered most types of terrain on the way.....especially hilly areas...

[asifkidwai1]

Yes it was good drive came out unscratched no issues what so ever I’ll try and upload few terrains specially the one from Muzaffarabad connecting Mansehra-Naran-Chilas was using GPS so had no idea where it was taking me running on a narrow Muzaffarabad Gali suddenly took me to a 60degree steep climb I stopped and thought for a bit but had no choice but to climb Agay khuaa pechay khai wala hisab tha.... I hesitantly started to get on the climb but to my amusement got it crossed rather easily. Overall good experience

KIA Sorento is confirmed it will be launched by the end of 2020 to compete with the Toyota Fortuner, it'll be categorized as an SUV.
The top of the line variant will have a 3.3 L diesel engine and produce a total of 290hp.
the estimated price will be between 6-7 M PKR.

[wasiqshahab94]

I think you mean 3.3 petrol, sorento has no 3.3 diesel. But it does come with a 3.3 petrol v6.

P. S. That photo is of the 4th gen sorento, pak is sadly getting 3rd gen.

[fazalwahab11375]

US, where the Sorento is manufactured.. still dealers are a month away from actual inventory. US dealers will be getting first batch late September with limited units

Even Australia is not getting Sorento till November 2020.. I hope we get 4th generation but I have my doubts.

[ZainMahdi]

Is the 3rd/4th gen Sorento really based on a body-on-frame chassis? It seems to be a normal unibody crossover based on the KIA grand Carnival.

From what I can tell, only the 1st gen was a proper SUV.

[wasiqshahab94]

KIA/Hyundai currently have no body-on-frame vehicle in their lineup. Even their largest Telluride and Palisade have unibody construction.

[mgalaxy3]

yeah, mr fake news with a new account, with no credible posts so far.

[shaibakhan10]

please read this before posting anything click here hopefully this will teach you how to talk on a public forum.

[shaibakhan10]

hopefully we will get the 4rth gen of sorento the old one looks kinda BLOATED, fingers crossed lets hope for good.
and yes let me make a correction sorento is a compact crossover suv

[Xulfiqar]

News is that they are planning to perch the telluride on a ladder frame and pitch it towards land cruiser owners.

LOL.
