Completely redesigned for 2011, the Sorento now employs a unibody design with the ability to comfortably fit up to seven passengers, offering more space and ride comfort.

The 2011 Sorento offers two engines. A 3.5-liter V-6 providing best-in-class 276 horsepower and 248 lb.-ft. of torque and a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine producing 175 horsepower and 169 lb.-ft. of torque both are coupled to a new six-speed automatic transmission, which together provide ample power and offer improved fuel efficiency.

In addition to offering a comfortable ride, impressive technology features also come standard throughout, including an AM/FM/CD/MP3/Sat audio system with SIRIUS Satellite Radio capabilities, auxiliary and USB audio input jacks for connecting personal MP3 players, and Bluetooth wireless technology connectivity with steering wheel-mounted voice activation controls to enable hands-free operation for all compatible mobile phones.

All EX models offer standard push button-start ignition with smart key and rear sonar back-up sensors, while available voice-activated navigation, rear view back-up cameras and air ionization purification technology complete the modern and high-tech driving experience.
