  2008 Kia Sorento Review
  Overview  
 
The 2008 Kia Sorento has a truck-like body-on-frame design that allows the rugged crossover SUV its well-known off-road and towing capabilities. An extensive warranty and the price tag of an affordable compact SUV make it a popular choice of vehicle for budget-conscious families. For 2008, Kia Sorento gains a new second all-aluminum engine. The SUV has a truck-type platform, seating for five passengers, and rear-wheel-drive or 4-wheel-drive configuration choices. Three trim levels in Base, LX, and EX models are offered.
 
  Engine and Performance  
 
Base and LX models are powered by a 242-hp 3.3-liter V-6 engine. EX models get a new aluminum 3.8-liter V-6 engine with 262 horsepower and 260 lb-ft. of torque. A 5-speed automatic with Sportmatic shifting is the sole transmission. Kia offers two 4WD setups: a standard system and Kia's Torque-On-Demand system. Fuel economy ranges from 16/22 mpg (city/highway) for the LX 3.3L V6 4X2 to 15/20 mpg (city/highway) for the EX 3.8L V6 4X4.
 
  Body and Styling  
 
The Sorento is stylish, rugged, and roomy. It shares styling cues with the Sportage and features a new multi-slat grille, narrow air dam, redesigned large headlights with orange rims, rounded body-side cladding, redesigned tail-lamps, and a rear fascia with reflector inserts. The Sorento's dash incorporates audio and climate controls and new instrument gauges. Each trim level upgrades to increased amenities. Rear seats fold in a 60/40 split, increasing cargo volume to 31.7 cubic feet.
 
  Safety Features  
 
Kia Sorento earned a five-star crash safety rating in all four categories from the National Highway Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the highest rating in rear impact evaluations from the International Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). Available safety equipment includes ABS, traction control, an anti-skid system, curtain side airbags, and a driver's knee airbag.
