2025 Kia Sorento Plug-In Hybrid Review

Is the 2025 Kia Sorento Plug-In Hybrid a Good SUV?
"The Sorento PHEV's value proposition is clear. If you're comparing it to the RAV4 Plug-In Hybrid, it won't measure up when it comes to electric range or fuel economy, and it's quite expensive, too. It does, however, give you a third seating row that pits it squarely against the three-row Outlander PHEV. So if you could use that third row from time to time, this Kia could be a great fit. If you could get by with two rows, it's a lot harder to make the case, especially at this elevated price point."—Ranked #5 out of 9 Compact Plug-In-Hybrid SUVs
