Kia Sorento 2020: It’s certainly a looker

At first glance, the new Kia Sorento looks vastly different in comparison to its predecessor. From the front, Kia’s signature “tiger nose” grille is bolder and it now blends with a pair of fancy looking LED headlights.

Note also that the A-pillar is now positioned further back from the front axle making for a longer bonnet.

The 2020 Kia Sorento is more mature and definitely serious looking. Don't you think?

From the sides, the new Sorento also did a nip and tuck with its overhangs and several portions of the pillars are now adorned with chromed pieces.

From the rear, gone are the wide rear tail-lights and are instead replaced by a pair of slimmer, vertically oriented ones.

Overall, the 4th-generation Kia Sorento has indeed become much more mature and much more modern looking. Also, it's now much angular than ever before especially from viewed from the rear.

>>> Look into 16th MIAS - What to expect:

• Nissan Leaf: It might make an appearance at 2020 MIAS!
• Suzuki S-Presso 2020: Our first impressions
• Jeep Gladiator might be debuting at 2020 MIAS

Note the new and more subtle looking taillights

Kia Sorento 2020: Massive changes inside

Apart from the exterior, Kia also gave massive updates to the interior as well. It looks much more premium than ever before and even Kia themselves are saying that it’s one of the most spacious interiors that they’ve ever made.

That seems to be true because the third row now appears to have more legroom whilst having a spacious trunk.

On the dash, Kia also gave the Kia Sorento 2020 a new and massive 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster as well as a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system. Also noticeable is the dial for the gear shifter as well as another dial for changing driving modes.

If you think that this doesn't look luxurious then we'll eat our shorts
