If you want a small SUV but sometimes need to transport six or more people, the 2023 Kia Sorento should be on your short list. The Sorento is one of only a handful of small SUVs on the market that offers third-row seating. Slotting between the smaller five-passenger Sportage and larger three-row Telluride, the Sorento is a right-sized option that can squeeze in up to seven passengers in a pinch. Like most other Kias, the Sorento comes with an impressive complement of standard features, including wireless connectivity for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration, lane keeping assistance (it helps keep the Sorento in its lane) and multiple USB charging ports.
