The KIA SORENTO (2012-15) 5DR SUV AWD 2.2 CRDI DPF 194 EU5 KX-2 SNAV AUTO6 is a large, five-door family SUV with four-wheel drive and an automatic gearbox. In the UK used-car market, it sits above compact crossovers, offering generous space and a more substantial feel than many family cars. Mycarcheck.com checks have logged 386 look-ups covering 178 different vehicles, giving a useful snapshot of this Sorento. The average private-sale valuation is £7,900, with an average recorded mileage of 95,000 miles and annual use of 7,000 miles. Checks show about two and a half previous keepers on average, so compare each car’s history and condition carefully. It suits families needing room for passengers, luggage and country-road confidence, as well as drivers towing or travelling. The diesel engine and comfortable, well-equipped cabin make it a capable alternative to seven-seat rivals such as the Hyundai Santa Fe, though running costs deserve consideration.
