Kia Sorento weight

Kia Sorento curb weight affects the fuel efficiency, handling, and overall driving experience. A heavier Sorento may have a more stable ride and handle better in adverse weather conditions, but it may also require more fuel and have slower acceleration.

On the other hand, a lighter Kia Sorento may boast of better MPG and quicker acceleration, though it may also have reduced stability and less control on the road.

The lightest Kia Sorento was produced in 2015 with a weight of 3594 lbs. And the heaviest model came off the production line in 2008 with 4387 lbs pounds in curb weight.

Explore the data below and compare how other Kia Sorento body mass parameters like gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) and payload capacity changed between the generations.
