2022 Kia Sorento Horsepower

The 2022 Sorento taps into 191 total horsepower and 181 pound-feet of torque from a 2.5 L four-cylinder engine. Additionally, this I-4 powertrain has the Idle Stop & Go technology. A 2,000-pound towing rating is earned by this entry-level powerplant that's paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission system. When boosted by a turbocharger, the 2.5-L engine pumps out 281 hp. The turbo powerplant unleashes 311 lb-ft at tachometer levels above 1,700 RPM. Taking advantage of a wet-type mechanism, a dual-clutch transmission is synced with the turbo engine, which produces 3,500-lbs of towing capacity. This midsize Kia SUV also offers the Torque-Vectoring All-Wheel Drive for superb performance on various surfaces. A center-locking differential regulates the torque transfer throughout the entire drivetrain. The Drive Mode Select also optimizes the 2022 Sorento's performance in various driving conditions. For instance, the Snow Mode is exclusively available for trims that run on an AWD.
