2022 Kia Sorento Performance Specifications & Engine Options

When it comes to performance, the 2022 Kia Sorento puts its best foot forward. There’s two engine options to choose from, based on the trim configuration you elect for. First up is a 2.5L 4-Cylinder engine, which produces an impressive 191 horsepower and 181 foot pounds of torque. Next up is a turbocharged version of the same engine, which nearly doubles the power output of the engine, demanding the addition of a dual-clutch transmission to keep up.
