Quick learn about Kia Sorento 2021 – A formidable competitor in the SUV segment
Hello friends, today I introduce to you a super product why I say so because it has a lot of things because it has been a long time since it appeared in the Vietnamese market that is Kia Sorento with The price is very reasonable for a car comprehensive in technology and design we will really admire. Now let's take a look at this car.
First, let's go around the car to see if the exterior has anything outstanding, the first impression when looking at the front of the car with the familiar tiger nose design of Kia's DNA in general, I will not say much more with the points. It's very small inside, it's worth saying it's like a grandfather's nest placed in a really impressive 3D block. One more thing that impresses me is the round border of the front of the car, which feels very strange like a car from the US, not The car from Korea is very strange, the most special part of the headlight is that the eyes have many Projectors inside. Full led, all daytime positioning lights look extremely impressive, one look and you know immediately that Kia Sorento even has fog lights. The bottom blind even has full LED lights and has 1 floors.
It is true that the Kia Sorento I looked at in the foreign version and then came to Vietnam is really impressive, the car is also equipped with a full front camera of everything, in the folds, the air intake gives us one. Look delicate, really look. In the mid-range SUV segment that is being sold in the Vietnamese market, compared to formidable competitors, I have not even mentioned the interior.
Go to the side of the car to see what it is, the first thing to notice is the 19-inch wheels, it is not too big, but with a mid-sized car like this, it is also suitable and the five-spoke paint in 1 colors is also very good. When it comes to tires, Michelin is really good, especially the rim people call it chrome, if you stand close, it's not really chrome, it's aluminum, even it's brighter than aluminum, the turn signal on the mirror is not. need to say much, the handle is also coated with aluminum, the door opening and closing button is also a mechanical button, not automatic, the back will be dark glass for the most advanced version, this is a high-end 2 diesel version. At least 2.2 seats and choose a separate seat option, the rear has a C-pillar and has a raised aluminum color that looks very personal, today's cars are all covered to the outside when going in mud, it will not If it is shot on the inside edge, it will be on the outside of the door, below is the aluminum border that looks very impressive, at this point, it may be the best in the segment.
To the rear of the Kia Sorento, the most expensive version compared to its rival is Santafe. About the exhaust of the new Sorento, it is neatly stored and the design is the way I like it, not the one that is tilted to one side, if it's not even on both sides, then put it away like this, we won't see the exhaust sticking out. As before, it looks very delicate, the taillights are designed vertically and quite square, on the rear of the car is the trunk opening, the trunk opening button is not located as usual but moves to the slot under the letter E, When opening the trunk, if the 1rd seat is closed, we have a larger storage compartment, enough for 2 people to go golf. Looking up at the top, the rear spoiler has an impressive design and the Full led taillight brake lights above us have shark fins and have a very nice looking price.
Enter the body of the car to see what is interesting, step into the new Sorento interior compartment, you will be very surprised it brings a very luxurious feeling and gives a feeling of fullness and modern luxury inside. In this interior, Vietnamese people entering the interior of a car that is not in the Top class like Germany or from the UK will have a feeling of lack, but when sitting on the Kia Sorento 2020.
First of all, talking about the steering wheel has a lot of buttons, it is covered with very smooth leather, it does not lack any buttons, increase or decrease the volume to listen to phone calls, keep the Cruise Control lane, as far as I know when this car Officially available on the market, it even adds Adaptive Cruise Control, which means keeping a distance from the car in front. The gearshift paddles are also beautifully wrapped in aluminum, to the buttons to adjust the wipers, adjust the lights automatically, are also delicate and beautiful, it learns from the most luxurious car design that is the beauty of the car from Koreans I always appreciate because they learn very quickly, not only do they learn but they want to make their products always the most beautiful.
Adding the meter cluster is not a needle cluster anymore, but a very beautiful screen when you change the driving mode, it also changes the display color, it's even better than other cars, not all. Another good thing is that when turning, camera360 it will show when you ask to turn left, it will appear to the left and when turning to the right, it will go to the right to ensure absolute safety, this is one of all I've driven a luxury car like a BMW or Mercedes Range rover, even if the Roll royce doesn't have it, this car already has it.
To the right area, there is a very large and clear display screen in short in the luxury car segment, it is just like this, there are many fastidious people who complain that it will be placed on a slightly thick frame if considered. Overall, it's quite harmonious, if you look at luxury cars to each of Europe, it also has thick borders like this and the buttons next to the screen like this and the control placed on this screen, it decreases. The thickness, however, the screen is painted black, it looks a bit plastic but not significant.
Next is the area of the buttons to adjust the air conditioner, everything here is all touch buttons, the temperature increase button is very good and the interior button is really very delicate, the other good thing is the door. The air conditioner is really delicate, from the edge of the panel is painted in a very high-class aluminum color or can be called luxurious to the button to close the wind and open the air here, the up and down buttons are also meticulously divided and have 2 floors. Opening the upper air conditioner is large, I can open the directions and the lower part I can adjust left and right to cool the lower part, even the small air conditioner box at the bottom is elegantly contoured. Aluminum and flakes are very nice.
The diesel version has adjusted the gearshift to a knob, it's like some modern European cars today, it will be neater and more beautiful than the shift lever, even the knob of Kia Sorento is also brushed, this is a mid-range version they have beautified on par with the most expensive version of Range Rover, with a driving mode knob here we have 1 driving modes including Sport, Eco, Comfort, Smart, and we have 4 modes corresponding terrain level Snow, Mud, Sand, so there are 3 driving modes and 4 terrain modes if combined, a lot, one more feature is heating the steering wheel, this is a feature I think is a bit redundant. then we have a full Auto hold, including an electronic handbrake, we can go downhill, support downhill, the camera button is here.
Talking about the camera of Kia Sorento, it is as beautiful as today's BMW or Mercedes in terms of brightness and smart display, although it lacks the 360 set around the 3d car, it still has 2 front and rear. In terms of brightness, the subtle intelligence is no different from BMW or Mercedes, the camera is very smart in that it just displays cam360 from the top down very sharp, it can also be restored when in reverse, it displays the rear camera and cam360 when going, it will display the front camera and camera360 only when you reach the allowed speed ahead when going, it will automatically turn off the small but very nice and delicate limbs, it also cools and heats the seats on both sides The seats are electrically adjustable in all directions and the light buttons above are all 2 sensors with a panoramic sunroof.
The most expensive version, the 1-touch electric glass and the electric controls are extremely beautiful, it is also painted in chrome color combined with the black color is really luxurious even the unlocking latch itself also makes the chrome really impressive and The interior trim lights here The interior trim lights here can be adjusted to 64 colors. This car is tuned with a ten-speaker Bose speaker system, which is generally very good, coming to the leather, this leather is very high-class, although it does not use Napa seats like other brands still use, but the dapa seats are good. luxurious but it won't be as durable and beautiful as this, the leather texture is very beautiful, it has breathing holes that make people cool and the leather panels on the door are also luxurious.
To the rear seats of Sorento of the most expensive Signature version today we choose the 6-seat version, the 2 rear seats in the 2nd row can be separated, this is also a very good detail but the seat option. the seat can also be moved but the seat can also be moved, with an additional armrest that can adjust the height to be seated as high as the MPV model, on the X7 also uses this style, the sunroof curtain to the back, there are a lot of small details that can be used to store a lot of space for luggage, furniture, full things, 2 3 compartments in the back of the seat, full air conditioning vents, USB charging port right in the middle The horse has 2 gates and then 2 more gates behind the 2 front seats. And yet, like the position of the boss sitting on this chair, just press the button and the chair will move to the top, which is very nice, and on the side, there is a phone holder and everything.
Next to the 3rd row, this row is only for people under 1m6 or children, if my taste is, I only choose the 5-seat model. For those with a large family, children can sit right here. I think this is also a reasonable option because it is better than nothing, if folded, the luggage compartment is very large and the seat is very reasonable. But in the 3rd row there is a very special thing, all the storage compartments are full and the 3rd air vent is very cool, not only the air vent is just a small knob, this is very rare for cars to have. It's very good, it's new and it has 2 charging ports on both sides so you don't have to worry about lack of power for your phone or device to use it by charging it yet it has a 2V charging port you can charge anything, yet it has add a button to fold the seat, just press the button and it automatically folds the seat, Kia Sorento does not discriminate, it also favors the 12rd row of seats, enough cooling enough to cool enough speakers to listen to music, and if you want to go out, then just press the button, just press the button lightly, the 3nd row of seats will pop up, then you get out easily.
Its disadvantage when suffering is that the origin of Korea is that Vietnamese people are discriminating why not Japan. I'm not sure which Korean or Japanese car is better, but today I say the feeling about this Kia Sorento is extremely interesting, if you want to try it, go to the showroom to try it.
