Experience New 2021 Kia Sorento Hybrid - Kia SUV https://youtu.be/OdnyOpRYlhQ

After announcing pricing for gas-only versions of its redesigned 2021 Sorento earlier this week, Kia is back with pricing for the hybrid version of its mid-size three-row SUV. Available in either S or EX trims, the 2021 Sorento HEV uses a combination of a turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine and electric motor for 227 (S) or 228 (EX) total system horsepower.
The Sorento lineup will have a selection of engine options and be available with front- or all-wheel drive. A 191-hp 2.5-liter inline-four-cylinder engine is standard and a 281-hp turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder is available, too. Both pair with an eight-speed automatic transmission, and the hybrid model uses a six-speed automatic. The eco-friendly Sorento hybrid features the combination of a turbo 1.6-liter four-cylinder gas engine and a 44-kW electric motor. However, it will only be offered with front-wheel drive. Kia will eventually offer a plug-in-hybrid version as well. As with the regular hybrid, it'll have a turbocharged 1.6-liter, but it'll feature a 66.9-kW electric motor and be all-wheel-drive only. Kia also said the Sorento will be able to tow up to 3500 pounds.
The Sorento's interior is a big departure from the current version's rather staid aesthetic. The dashboard can be outfitted with a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster and a 10.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system. The rest of the design blends rhombus-shaped air vents, integrated ambient lighting, and intricately stitched surfaces on the door panels and seat inserts. The center console hosts a rotary shift knob as well as a drive-mode selector and other vehicle functions. A variety of cubby storage spots and cupholders also fill out the console
