With three rows of seating that can fit up to six passengers and standard all-wheel drive with the option for pure electric driving, it's the perfect way to transition to an electric vehicle without the pressure of going fully electric. Check out our new Kia PHEV models at Preston's Kia and enjoy all the benefits of the newest electrified vehicles available now in central Vermont.

Electric Power and Performance

With the newest hybrid technology, the Kia Sorento PHEV delivers powerful acceleration while balancing fuel consumption with your lifestyle needs. The PHEV setup that powers the Kia Sorento is a turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder gas engine with two electric motors - one on each axle- providing all-wheel drive. The hybrid combo produces 261 horsepower and great acceleration for confident passing and merging. The powerful battery pack allows you to go up to 32 miles in pure electric mode for a combined 79 MPGe fuel efficiency rating. The total electric/gas range is 460 miles, so you can do more and go further with fewer fuel stops.

When the battery becomes depleted, the Kia Sorento PHEV will operate like a traditional vehicle. With regenerative braking technology and power from the gas engine, the battery recharges enough to give you excellent fuel efficiency so you can continue driving without worry. If you want to continue driving gas-free, recharge at home, work, or at one of the dozens of public chargers along I-89 and Barre/Berlin areas.

Style and Comfort

The Kia Sorento PHEV has convenient amenities and comforts to make every ride enjoyable. The second row features Captain's chairs with heated seats that are just as comfortable as the front seats, which are also heated and ventilated. The second-row chairs slide and recline while offering plenty of room for adults to sit comfortably in the third row. A panoramic sunroof with a power sunshade opens up the cabin, and every Kia Sorento PHEV comes with leather-trimmed upholstery for a luxury feel.

Advanced Driver Assistance and Connected Tech

The Kia Sorento PHEV comes in one trim level, the SX Prestige, and with the highest tier in the lineup, you can expect serious upgrades and conveniences, including the following:

  • 12.3-inch Digital Instrument Display
  • 10.25-inch Touchscreen with Navigation, Kia Connect, and SiriusXM® Satellite Radio
  • Apple CarPlay® & Android Auto
  • Wireless Phone Charger
  • Bose® Premium Audio System with 12 Speakers

The Kia Sorento PHEV also has advanced driver assistance and safety technology to keep you alert and prevent collisions. Some of the standard features include the following:

  • Blind-Spot View Monitor: Live feed of your blind spots displayed on the dashboard gauge cluster.
  • Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist: Automatically applies the brakes to prevent collisions with cars, pedestrians, and cyclists in front of the vehicle and detects oncoming vehicles at crossing intersections.
  • Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control & Highway Driving Assist: Predicts changing terrain with navigation data to adjust speed through curves automatically, maintains a safe distance behind other vehicles, and automatically keeps speed at posted speed limits.
  • Safe Exit Assist: Hazard alert before exiting the vehicle and automatically applies child locks if it detects an approaching hazard.

PHEV Benefits for Vermonters

The new Kia Sorento PHEV qualifies for Vermont incentives, including rebates and credits for charging, up to $1,400 in rebates for electric vehicles through Efficiency Vermont, and bill credits or other incentives through power companies like Vermont Electric Coop.
