2011 Kia Sorento Interview - Kelley Blue Book - LA Auto Show

[luckynumba7ivory]

Kia needs to get rid of the Rondo, the Sedona, and the soul.....fugly cars that only sold because of ads and even then, sales were sub par.

Kia also needs to change their name and their logo design. everyone thinks Kia=shit and their spending way to much to try and change peoples' conception of this. the solution is easy, fire michael sprague, take away failing cars, and redesign the forte with bettery handling.

period!

[sexyasia28]

He too much talking .

[1993jino]

And kia has been exporting their cars to the world around 20 years.... If people wouldnt have bought their cars... they wouldn't been able to be suceed... that means there is no Kia... and also mistakes is actually learning something ....

[scottcwilson1]

i got my 2009 lats year. my gf got one as well. she did not like the size so she went back to a oversized tahoe :( sad. but with the snow we got that past year in NJ i can not at all complain. i drive 60 miles to work and home and i went through this 2 foot snow like it was water with my CUV with out the 4wd on. Im am old school though when it comes to driving i turn off all that crap cause it hinders my driving if you ask me. BUt Kia is moving up and fast don't complainUSA just dont cut anymore

[izaccy]

Im not gonna buy these ugly cars

im from the future and these cars suck

[amazonrush]

kia got it all right with this sorento, their forte and forte koup, their new and improved Kia Optima 2011 ( i love this car in the turbo).....but they got it all wrong with the Kia soul.....looks like a piece of shit toy you see in a toy box.

[whatever0481]

Korean quality is good guys!!! trust me i know it from practice. Kia is well worth buying and indeed for young couples would be ideal. Its now overpriced and a good family suv

[1001001]

the thing about kia is that you get alot for your money. people that cant afford cars such as nissans hondas fords chevs etc. get alot of features for there money. kias dont always die very fast too. i see kias that are old that look like they're are in good shape for there year. the problem with kias is that they lack porformance if kia were to make stronger, faster engines they would be a lot more popular and have better reputation

[jmackjoey]

Because they know they are sellin you a piece of crap car that won't last more than 100,000 miles.

[IKOR72]

Just traded my 2007 Acura MDX for this 2011 Sorento Limited V6, and boy, I love this car. It already has 5000 miles and its rock solid.

I am never buying another brand

[verizonagent32]

@IKOR72 I purchased the 2011 Kia Sorento EX, and could not be happier. I absolutely love my Kia. Plus with the 10Yr 100,000 Mile warranty Kia must really have confidence in their products. I have been very impressed with the vehicle's quality and my decision was between the Chevy Equinox of the Kia Sorento, and I am very happy I decided to go with the Sorento. I am stuck on Kia as as well.

[lexusES350h]

i was about to buy this car but i got a nissan murano instead.. and im very happy with it. i hope i don't regret my desision.. x) i test drove both and found the sorento was very nice. but i don't know anybody who everd a kia to tell me bout thier expieriences with them. so i stuck with nissan since my family has thier cars and they had no problems.. im sure kia doesn't have any problems either but this is a new car so i didn't take the risk, NOT saying its a bad car! looks lovley!

[DJTEVAdotCOM]

toyota may screwed up in the gas pedal but their engine are still reliable as ever

[kloveterms]

is this the place to talk about stupid toyota....omg look at the yars....one of the cheapest...ugliest......plasti­c.....piece of shit toyota has ever made...

[JohnThomasB]

@DJTEVAdotCOM

i'll vow to this. I have a 1993 Corolla as my 2nd vehicle... 276,XXX miles and still going.

[kingeddy137]

LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!

[a1mint]

I'm seeing different "EPA" ratings on the various car websites listed, and can't find any official ratings on fueleconomy(dot)gov (the EPA website).

I feel that we're being lied to about mpg.

I simply do not believe that there is only 1 mpg difference between the 4 and 5 cyl versions for one.

[dakidakov]

Well it's a fact KIA overtook FORD as the 4th biggest car automaker. This speaks for itself. Only VW GM and Toyota are in the front. :)

[assanee31]

Toyota is now the HISTORY!

[dakidakov]

Yeah.....Toyota screwed up pretty badly. They were too used and full of themselves and the quality leash loosened enough, and they now experience 16% fall in sales. :)))

[rsxzx6r]

yea right...LOL

[kloveterms]

get your facts right....hyundai group overtook ford....not kia..kia is a part of that group

[terry81]

loook nice but inside is it reliable?

[bubbal00z]

Well thanks to earlier models which were mediocre at best, Kia has a brand image of being cheap. Thankfully now Kia is getting its act together they are starting to build cars that are more appealing.

[nanunjay91]

seriously people.. KIA is not a bad car coporation... why do you think that why all the korean cars have 10 years and 100,000 miles warranty unless they know they have good durable cars...

just saying... (MY OPINION)

[Travide]

@nanunjay91 no matter what you say about kia/hyundai I have a tuscon with 5yr or 100k warranty lol and nothing but trouble with it also everytime I brign it in its always somehitng warranty dont cover so, I would like to change your opinion cuz they really do suck after one year having mine im alrdy trading it in lol I thought they made better cars as well now that they look cool and all but I found out when I bought one lol

[PROgoth121]

Fuck Kia? Fuck you!

You're probably one of those stuck-up, GM/Ford/Dodge fanboys anyway so your opinion doesn't count. (if that's the case)

[thetube1111]

im not those fanboys who like ford and american cars. i like german cars:P

[kingeddy137]

@thetube1111 then either GO COMMENT ON UR GERMAN CARS, or just GO TO HELL :)

[Caleb0014]

Tthey did copy the lexus SUV

[itsTiLER]

you should say that if you don't even know the model name of the lexus. lexus has THREE SUV's. for all some people know, you could have been talking about any of the three if somebody saw this comment

[jgjgjgj1]

@itsTiLER it copying the new lexus RX so the RX 350, RX400h , what ever RX you want, is copying it! viva japan, fuck korea

[jangkimtyler]

i know looks like lexus RX to me,

[porkyskicks]

its still a kia

[T966ER]

I'm sorry but every Kia I have seen is a complete piece of Krap Imported to America. I mean seriously, who wakes up in the morning and looks forward to driving their Kia to work?

[surlybikes13]

totally agree with that. last rental car i had was a KIA and it was an absolute POS

[PROgoth121]

A lot of people do.

[gulfstreamliner]

[KandeeMann2001]

[bluestarkad17]

[swissmrkc]
