Excited About My First Kia…

@KingKong
I switched from a 2019 Veloster Turbo to a 2025 Sorento, and it was easy to manage.

I keep my third row folded down with a cargo liner. They hardly take up space until needed.

Then go buy something else. It’s like me saying I wish that truck didn’t have a bed. I’d just buy an SUV.

No need to be rude. I’m getting a 2025 Kia Sportage on Monday.

@KingKong
I don’t see why you’re getting down votes. My last two cars were Sorentos. I see them as relatively small SUVs, but I understand if someone thinks it’s huge if they’ve always driven a sedan or smaller SUV. I can see the appeal of a Sportage-sized Sorento. Hope you enjoy your new car. Congrats ahead of time.

@TellurideTrekker
Thanks! I’m really looking forward to it. I love the Sorento’s look and feel but would prefer it to be a bit shorter. I do a lot of city driving and parallel parking, and I’d rather not do that in a big vehicle.

I think the third row makes it special. It’s a nice middle ground between smaller SUVs like a CR-V and larger ones like a Pilot. Keep the third row down until you need it. It’s nice to have the choice.
