2021 Kia Sorento spied without camo

Scoop images of the 2021 Kia Sorento have been obtained while testing in South Korea, with minimal to no camouflage. The design language looks quite promising, and the family resemblance to the Seltos is intentional.

While the current gen Sorento bears staid looks, which are non polarizing, the upcoming version has a more bold face, with contemporary looks that can only bolster Kia's points in the looks department.

Interesting blend of styling elements from Europe and North America. Gels really well. Kia's external styling, for cars and SUVs, is consistently improving. Probably one reason why the current gen Sportage has quite a few takers in Germany.

Sorento looks great. It has an aggressive stance that everyone looks for in an SUV. A seven-seater that does not look like a minivan will be a success in India. If they bring it to India, they might just achieve what Hyundai was never able to do in the 20-30 lakh price bracket even after all these years.

The Sorento can never be in the 20~30 Lac price bracket. It is two classes above the Seltos.

Seltos > Sportage > Sorento.

If we are lucky to get this in Indian soil, expect it to priced in the range of 30~40 Lacs. The Sportage will be in the 20~30 Lacs bracket.

The Sorento, if it does come to India, will be priced at par with the Carnival range since that is how it has been positioned internationally as well. So we can expect around 25L as the starting price for this.

Refreshing looks !
The front profile has semblence with Hexa's stance in my eyes. And the rear is reminiscent of previous gen Audi Q5 .

Re: 2021 Kia Sorento spied without camo

Having extensively gone through a lot of videos and brochures of the 2021 Kia Sorento. I believe Kia should definitely consider it for the Indian market. Especially assembling completely it in India. Would definitely give a great competition to the Fortuner and the Endeavour. Sorento would bring Kodiaq's equipment list at a discounted price.

What a stunning car this is - exactly the option one needed in the endeavour / fortunes / Kodiaq segment. For people who desire a more sophisticated car like full size SUV, its a useful alternate to the Kodiaq.
