• Pros & Cons

  Pros, Cons

  Pros	Great ride quality with utmost comfort on offer Maintain the legacy of off-roading with its lineage. A better alternative for the Fortuner. Premium and plush interiors with great tech on offer.	First-in-segment hybrid AWD combination expands the Sorento’s appeal beyond conventional diesel-powered three-row SUVs. Spacious 6- and 7-seater layouts give buyers the choice between second-row captain seats and greater seating flexibility. Second-row ventilated seats with three-step cooling are a meaningful comfort advantage for passengers travelling long distances. Strong safety credentials with 30 ADAS Level 2+ features, 360-degree camera, five radars, 12 parking sensors and up to 10 airbags. Kia AI Assistant with Real-Time Generative AI gives the Sorento a genuinely distinctive connected-car experience. Hybrid and diesel powertrains, both available with AWD, provide buyers with greater flexibility based on their usage requirements.
  Cons	Jeep’s after-sales and service can be an issue. The third row is cramped and best suited for children Some lag can be felt in downshifts in the automatic gearbox. No petrol powertrain on offer	The top-spec Sorento crosses Rs. 40 lakh ex-showroom, making it a significant investment even before on-road costs. The hybrid is offered with a 6-speed automatic, while the diesel uses an 8-speed DCT, limiting powertrain-transmission combinations. Several of the most premium features are concentrated on higher trims, requiring buyers to move up the range for the full experience. Its 4,815 mm length and 1,900 mm width deliver excellent presence and cabin space but can make tight urban manoeuvring less convenient.
