 Recently purchased a 2016 Kia Sorento SX after thorough review on this site and several others. Opted for the SX trim since we really wanted the UVO navigation package and other features that came standard at that trim package. Very impressed with the acceleration of the V-6 3.3L engine, smooth handling, and solid suspension.  I think that there is incredible value in this vehicle and that it compares favorably with luxury SUVs that command prices 10-20K higher. Of the very few criticisms that I've read regarding the 2016 Kia Sorento, one was the limited available interior space with the 3rd row. I think it's important to keep in mind that this is a mid-sized SUV that is not intended to constantly haul 7 people around but rather provides you the option of extra seating when you're in a jam.  Went for a test-drive at Cowboy Kia of Conroe and was very impressed. I was able to negotiate a great deal and am a highly satisfied customer and new Kia owner.
