Overview
The 2026 Kia Sorento S Diesel is a seven-seat family SUV built around low running costs, with the 2.2-litre turbo diesel claiming 6.0L/100km combined and 158g/km on the ADR 81/02 cycle. Its strength is the 440Nm of torque through part-time AWD and an eight-speed wet dual-clutch, which makes it relaxed with a full load and rated to tow 2,000kg braked. The thing to plan around is packaging: 179 litres behind the third row is small, though folding that row opens 608 litres and dropping both rear rows gives 1,996.

The wedges are drawn from this vehicle’s published approach, departure and breakover angles, and the water line marks its published wading depth.
Unladen figures. Approach, departure and breakover angles and ground clearance all reduce once the vehicle is loaded with passengers, cargo or towball weight, so treat these as a best-case guide.
Manufacturer-published figures, shown as a guide. Not independently verified and may vary by variant, trim, tyre or model year. Vehicle drawings are schematic and ride-height differences are exaggerated for legibility. Confirm with the manufacturer before relying on them for off-road planning.
Child seats and anchors
ISOFIX lower anchors clip a compatible child seat straight to the car's frame, the quickest, most mistake-proof fit.
Top-tether straps stop a forward-facing seat pitching in a crash. Australian law requires a tether on every forward-facing child seat, so rear seats almost always have them.
Most 5-seat cars carry 2 ISOFIX on the outer 2nd-row seats plus tethers across the row; some 7-seaters add anchors in the third row.

The 2026 Kia Sorento S Petrol is a three-row SUV that suits families wanting seven-seat practicality without stretching to a full-size vehicle, powered by a 3.5-litre petrol engine delivering 200kW and 332Nm with front-wheel drive. Its standout strength is the combination of a five-star ANCAP safety rating, seven-year warranty, and competitive fuel consumption of 6.8L/100km, making it both protective and economical for Australian family road trips and daily driving. One consideration: the 179-litre boot shrinks significantly with all seven seats in use, so buyers regularly carrying large cargo may find the space restrictive despite the versatile seating layout.

The 2026 Kia Sorento Sport is a practical seven-seat petrol SUV suited to family buyers wanting a reliable daily driver with solid warranty backing. Its standout strength is the combination of genuine towing capacity (2000kg) and competitive fuel efficiency (6.8L/100km) for a 3.5-litre engine, making it capable for weekend adventures without excessive fuel costs. One consideration is the modest 179-litre boot space, which may feel restrictive when all seven seats are occupied, so buyers with large cargo needs should test this carefully before purchase.

Its strength is the 440Nm of torque through part-time AWD and an eight-speed wet dual-clutch, which makes it relaxed with a full load and rated to tow 2,000kg braked. The thing to plan around is packaging: 179 litres behind the third row is small, though folding that row opens 608 litres and dropping both rear rows gives 1,996.

It's $56,630 RRP, which is the recommended retail price, before on-road costs. Fuel use is 5.4L/100km on the combined cycle, and braked towing is rated at 1,650kg. The catch is the boot with all seats up, which is 179 litres, though folding the rear seats opens it up to 608 litres. It suits a bigger family that wants seven seats and low fuel use without stepping into a diesel.

The 2.2-litre turbo diesel's 440Nm through part-time AWD is the reason it feels unbothered loaded up, and Kia's seven-year warranty covers it. One consideration is boot space with all seven seats in use: 179 litres is enough for a school bag or two, so plan on folding the third row (608 litres) when you are carrying luggage.

Its standout strength is the combination of a 5-star ANCAP safety rating with Kia's reassuring seven-year warranty, plus competitive running costs around $1519 annually and genuine 6.8L/100km efficiency for a vehicle of this size. The main consideration is that front-wheel drive and a 179-litre boot with all seven seats deployed may feel limiting for buyers prioritising off-road capability or cargo versatility compared to some rivals.

Its standout strength is the combination of a frugal 3.5-litre petrol engine delivering 200kW and 332Nm with claimed consumption of just 6.8L/100km, keeping annual running costs around $1519 while offering genuine 2000kg towing capacity for caravans or trailers. One consideration is the front-wheel-drive setup and 179-litre boot-adequate for most families but worth noting if you frequently carry large loads or need serious off-road capability.

The 2.2-litre turbo diesel makes 148kW and 440Nm, drives all four wheels through an eight-speed wet dual-clutch and claims 6.0L/100km combined at 158g/km, which is unusually thrifty for the size. Worth knowing: this is a big, heavy car on a 2,630kg gross vehicle mass, so try it in a tight car park and with a trailer on before you commit.

Its 1.6-litre turbo petrol and electric motor make a combined 195kW and 350Nm through a six-speed automatic with all-wheel drive, and the ADR 81/02 combined figure of 1.6L/100km at 37g/km reflects a fully charged battery rather than what you will see once it is depleted. Consider the packaging cost of the battery: the boot is 175 litres behind the third row against the hybrid's 179, and braked towing drops to 1,010kg.

We don't have a flat-battery fuel figure yet, so it's hard to say what it uses once the charge runs out. It suits a family with short daily trips and a spot to plug in at home who still wants a third row.

Boot space is 179 litres with all seats up and 608 litres with the rear seats folded, so with the third row in use there isn't a lot of room left for bags. It can tow 1,650kg braked and 750kg unbraked, and it sends drive to all four wheels.

The 2026 Kia Sorento Sport+ PHEV AWD gives families a seven-seat SUV that can cover a typical weekday commute on electricity and still do a country run on petrol, with a combined 195kW and 350Nm through a six-speed automatic and all-wheel drive. The headline 1.6L/100km and 37g/km are ADR 81/02 plug-in figures measured from a full battery, so treat them as a best case rather than a promise. The trade-offs are real: 175 litres of boot behind the third row, 604 with it folded, and 1,010kg of braked towing, well short of what the diesel Sorento is rated to pull.

The 2026 Kia Sorento GT-Line PHEV AWD is the flagship of the range, a seven-seat plug-in hybrid making a combined 195kW and 350Nm through all-wheel drive and a six-speed automatic. Charged nightly it can do most short trips on electricity, and its ADR 81/02 combined figures of 1.6L/100km and 37g/km are measured from a full battery rather than a flat one. Consider that this is a large, heavy car with a 2,700kg gross vehicle mass, that the battery under the second row cuts the behind-the-third-row boot to 175 litres, and that braked towing is 1,010kg, well short of the diesel Sorento's rating.

The 2021 Kia Sorento S is the entry grade of the MQ4-generation Sorento, here with the 3.5l petrol powertrain.

Every MY21 Sorento is a seven-seater measuring 4,810 mm long on a 2,815 mm wheelbase, with 176 mm of ground clearance, a 67-litre tank and luggage space that runs from 187 litres with all three rows up to 2,011 litres with the second and third rows folded. Standard safety across the range includes autonomous emergency braking with car, pedestrian, cyclist and junction detection, blind spot and rear cross-traffic collision avoidance, lane keeping with lane following assist, multi-collision braking, safe exit assist, front and rear parking sensors and advanced smart cruise control. The S rides on 17-inch alloys and gets an 8-inch touchscreen, embossed cloth trim and a six-way manual driver's seat.
