The fourth generation of the Kia Sorento has received an early mid-lifecycle update, just three years after its initial debut. Unveiled in Korea today, the midsize SUV showcases Kia’s latest and more refined styling language, presenting a refreshed front face and a sleeker interior. International versions are set to follow later this year. Notably, this update came shortly after Hyundai introduced a radical redesign for its mechanically-related Hyundai Santa Fe.
The first thing you’ll notice is the redesigned front end, highlighted by a new pair of slimmer and vertically-stacked LED headlights flanking the tiger-nose grille.
