Additional Description: Good-looking comfortable rugged and well-equipped the 2007 Kia Sorento remains a solid buy among small and midsize SUVs especially if you're looking for one with true off-road capability. Vehicle overview:Let's just get to the point here: The 2007 Kia Sorento is a great choice if you're shopping for a midsize SUV with available four-wheel drive and towing capabilities. For fewer than $25000 you can get a nicely equipped attractively styled sport-utility vehicle with a powerful V6 engine real off-road prowess and important standard safety features.This year's Sorento improves on the previous year's model by offering a host of redesigns and upgrades to an already impressive package. A new 3.8-liter V6 engine replaces the old one and now produces 262 horsepower which is 36 percent more than before. This allows for a 5000-pound towing capacity in both two- and four-wheel-drive modes. To identify the updated Sorento look for its subtle exterior refinements including redesigned front headlamps a revised grille new bumpers and redesigned taillamps. Inside there's a new instrument panel design and updated and improved interior materials.The Sorento is a truck-based SUV meaning that it employs body-on-frame construction versus a car-based SUV. While this is great for rugged characteristics and necessary for off-road driving the ride tends to be less smooth and doesn't offer the same refinement as other small SUVs like the Ford Escape or Honda CR-V. Nor is the Sorento truly as capable off-road as competitors like the Nissan Xterra or Toyota FJ Cruiser. But as an all-around vehicle that's well-equipped affordable and ready for at least limited recreational excursions the 2007 Kia Sorento is a fine choice.2007 Kia Sorento models:The 2007 Kia Sorento midsize SUV comes in two trim levels: LX and EX. The LX comes standard with 16-inch wheels a 10-speaker sound system full power accessories cloth seats and an eight-way adjustable driver seat. The EX adds steering-wheel audio controls a power-adjustable driver seat adjustable headrests an auto-dimming rearview mirror leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob and wood grain interior accents. The LX Sport Package adds sporty touches like black leather interior foglights and 17-inch alloy wheels. The EX Luxury Package steps it up by offering dual-zone automatic climate control heated front seats a sunroof and a six-disc CD changer.2007 Highlights:The Kia Sorento receives some significant updates for 2007. A more powerful V6 engine interior and exterior improvements and additional standard safety features keep it competitive in the midsize-SUV segment.Performance & mpg:The 2007 Kia Sorento comes with a new 3.8-liter V6 engine that produces 262 hp and 260 pound-feet of torque. It's mated to a five-speed automatic transmission that allows you to choose between automatic or manual-shift modes. With its upgraded power plant the Sorento can now tow up to 5000 pounds in two- or four-wheel drive. Fuel economy is rated at 17/23 city/highway. Buyers have a choice of two-wheel drive (rear-wheel drive that is) or four-wheel drive. The standard 4WD system is an off-road-oriented part-time system but those who opt for a luxury package-equipped EX model get the automatic Torque-On-Demand 4WD system that also includes low-range gearing for better off-road performance.Safety:Full-length side curtain airbags antilock disc brakes stability and traction control a tire-pressure monitoring system and a driver knee airbag come standard across all trim levels. The Sorento earned a top five-star NHTSA rating in front and rear side impact crash tests and an "Acceptable" rating (the second highest of four) in the IIHS' frontal-offset crash test.Driving:More horsepower equals more pleasant riding and driving. The new V6 provides more than adequate torque for city driving and highway cruising and is a significant improvement over the previous-generation engine's disappointing acceleration. On pavement the independent front and solid-axle rear suspension provide a firm but overall agreeable ride. However bumps and sharp impacts can intrude into the cabin. Steering feels good and body roll is minimal around corners. The truck-based frame and low-range transfer case are great for off-road trails.Interior:The 2007 Kia Sorento features a redesigned interior that makes tasteful use of wood and metal trim materials. The cabin is comfortable and functional. The leather seats are good quality. The rear seat is wide enough for three adults but knee and toe room may be tight. There are 31.4 cubic feet of space with the rear seats up.Visit Mr. Care Auto online at www.mrcareautoin.com to see more pictures of this vehicle or call us at 317-834-3172 today to schedule your test drive.Cargo Net,Rear Window Defogger,Trip Computer,(1) cargo area,(1) rear,(2) front/(2) rear center console cup holders,(4) assist grips,(4) floor-mounted cargo tie-down cargo net hooks,12V pwr outlets-inc: (2) front,2-speed transfer case,2-speed variable intermittent windshield wipers,2-tone bodyside cladding,2-tone bumpers,3-point seat belts at all positions-inc: front force limiters & pretensioners,3.8L DOHC MPFI 24-valve V6 engine,4-wheel drive,4-wheel pwr vented disc brakes,5-link rear suspension,5-speed automatic transmission w/OD,60/40 split flat-folding rear seat-inc: folding armrest,Battery saver,Body-color door handles,Body-color heated pwr mirrors,Bright stainless steel scuff plates,Center console w/armrest & dual storage,Chrome Door Handles,Chrome surround grille w/dual bar insert,Compass,courtesy lights,Cruise Control w/Steering Wheel Controls,Dash-mounted illuminated ignition switch,Dome lights w/fade-out feature,Double wishbone front suspension,Driver Knee Airbag,Dual advanced front airbags,Dual horn,Electrochromic rearview mirror w/HomeLink garage door opener,Energy-absorbing steering column,Engine speed sensitive pwr rack & pinion steering,fender flares,Fog lamps,Front & fuel tank skid plates,Front & rear towing hooks,Front active headrests,Front tilt/adjustable headrests,Front/rear stabilizer bars,Fuel cut-off system,Full-length side curtain airbags,Full-size spare tire & wheel,Height-adjustable front seat belt anchors,In-door safety,Leather shift knob w/chrome shift lever,Leather-wrapped steering wheel w/audio controls,Locking glove box w/upper map pocket,Map lights,Overhead console-inc: sunglass storage,P245/70R16 tires,Pull-down coin holder bin,Pwr windows w/1-touch auto-down driver window,Rear assist grip mounted garment hooks,Rear cargo cover,Rear child safety door locks,Rear child seat anchors (LATCH system),rear door bottle holders,Rear doors/rear window privacy glass,Rear heater ducts,Rear liftgate w/flip-open glass,Rear quarter panel storage bin,Rear window intermittent wiper/washer,removable headrests,Roof Rack,Slide-out storage drawer,Slide-out sunvisors w/dual covered illuminated vanity mirrors,Solar glass windshield,Sportmatic,Tilt steering wheel,Tire pressure monitoring system,Trailer hitch wiring harness connector,Under rear cargo storage compartments,Under seat storage bin,Wood grain accents
