KIA ANNOUNCES 2024 SORENTO HYBRID

IRVINE, Calif., Nov. 8, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — The 2024 Kia Sorento Hybrid continues to be a solid choice for those who want a sharp and rugged looking three-row SUV with fuel economy. After receiving minor packaging enhancements last year along with the newly added SX-P trim, the 2024 Sorento Hybrid carries over into the new model year with minor changes to color and trim options. While the Runway Red exterior paint has been deleted from the color palette, customers now have the option to pair the Gravity Blue paint color with the Navy interior color pack for a unique and stylish look. The Navy interior color pack envelops the front and rear seats in Navy perforated leather, with a hint of blue on the steering wheel. The black headliner in previous iterations of the interior color pack has been replaced with a gray headliner to add a nicer contrast to the navy theme. All else carries over, including the Sorento Hybrid’s best-in-class 371 MPG.

The Sorento Hybrid comes in three well-appointed trim levels: EX and SX-P.
