Since the beginning of the year, we have already communicated to you information about the next generation of the Kia Sorento which is about to debut. We even shared with you information that it will be presented in South Korea on February 17. We even had the opportunity to see what it was like to look like the model thanks to images published on the Twitter platform.
However, we were treated to a small clarification this week when the Korean firm confirmed that the model would make its world debut at the next Geneva Motor Show, on March 3. She also gave us some additional information on the content of this new generation.
As for the model that had been seen, a version intended for the local market, it will not change much for North American consumers. It sports more modern lines with LED headlights and a serrated grille. At the rear, the lights with two vertical bars at the ends add an interesting … and different touch.

For the rest, we knew that a hybrid model was also expected. Kia confirmed that this was to happen. It’s likely to be a conventional hybrid version rather than a rechargeable type, at least for now. AWD may also be possible with this greener livery. The standard engine choices will be four and six cylinder gasoline.
The Kia Sorento 2021 is expected to go on sale by the end of the year as a 2021 model. We’ll see later in the year what the offer and price range for variants going to Canada will look like.
On the other hand, as far as the North American version is concerned, rumors already speak of a presentation at the New York Salon in April. At worst, Detroit will follow in June.
