Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE Kia Motors America (KMA), one of the fastest-growing car companies in the U.S., has been honored by having its best-selling CUV, the U.S.-built Sorento, named to Consumer Guide’s® annual “Best Buy” list. Consumer Guide® makes its selections by evaluating vehicles on all aspects of a consumer’s real-world driving and ownership experience. The Sorento was selected for having a number of outstanding key attributes in the Midsize SUV category.
“Sorento earns our respect for its excellent ride and handling balance, upscale features and reasonable price,” said Tom Appel, publisher of Consumer Guide®. “The available third-row seating and great warranty coverage are added bonuses.”
This year, a more focused evaluation process from the Consumer Guide® editorial team required vehicles to meet higher criteria in order to be recognized. The result was a shorter and more prestigious “Best Buy” list than in previous years. “We’re honored that Consumers Guide® has named one of our top-selling models as a ‘Best Buy,” said Michael Sprague, executive vice president, marketing & communications, KMA. “The Sorento is a cornerstone for the Kia brand and is a flagship among family vehicles, offering world-class sophistication, value, safety and comfort. Furthermore, we’re proud that this exceptional CUV is built right here in the U.S.”
Each year, Consumer Guide’s® staff drives nearly 200,000 miles to properly evaluate the pros and cons of vehicles in multiple categories. The vehicles are test-driven in the city, on highways, in rural areas and put to virtually all aspects of everyday driving to give consumers a total picture of how each model performs.
