Kia Sorento Hybrid for Sale in Brooklyn, NY
Plaza Kia keeps the new Kia Sorento in stock at 2746 Nostrand Avenue in every trim, gas and hybrid. It is Kia's three-row midsize SUV, small enough to park on a Brooklyn block but roomy enough for six or seven, with available all-wheel drive, and here is what each trim costs and which one to pick.
What the new Sorento costs
The new 2026 Sorento opens at about $32,400 for the LX and runs to about $47,600 for the X-Pro SX Prestige, before the $1,445 destination charge. The LX and S use a 191-horsepower 2.5L four-cylinder, the EX and up get a 281-hp turbocharged 2.5L, and all-wheel drive is available on every trim but the LX. The Sorento Hybrid, rated up to 36 mpg highway, starts at $38,890, so start with how many seats you fill and where you drive, and the trim mostly picks itself.
Every new Sorento trim, compared
| Trim | Engine and drive | Signature equipment | From (MSRP) | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LX | 191-hp 2.5L, FWD | Three rows, Kia's standard driver-assist suite | ~$32,400 | The lowest price into a three-row Kia |
| S | 191-hp 2.5L, FWD or AWD | LX content plus added convenience features and available AWD | ~$35,100 | Value with all-wheel drive available |
| EX | 281-hp 2.5L turbo, FWD or AWD | Turbo power, more comfort and convenience features | ~$38,300 | The sweet spot most families should start with |
| SX | 281-hp 2.5L turbo, FWD or AWD | Bose premium audio and more premium features | ~$42,100 | More luxury without the top-trim price |
| X-Line EX / SX / SX Prestige | 281-hp 2.5L turbo, AWD | Rugged X-Line styling, glossy black trim, Terrain Mode | ~$42,600–$46,600 | All-weather confidence with a bolder look |
| X-Pro SX Prestige | 281-hp 2.5L turbo, AWD | Off-road-ready X-Pro hardware, most premium cabin, up to 4,500 lb towing | ~$47,600 | The most capable, fully loaded Sorento |
The EX with all-wheel drive is where most Brooklyn families should start: it is the first trim with the 281-horsepower turbo, which makes a real difference when all three rows are full and you are merging onto the BQE, and AWD handles snowy side streets. Choose the LX or S if the lowest payment matters most and you mainly drive around town. Step up to the SX for Bose audio and more premium touches, an X-Line trim for standard AWD and a bolder look, and the X-Pro SX Prestige if you tow a camper or head off pavement upstate.
Gas, hybrid, or plug-in hybrid
The gas Sorento gives you the widest choice of trims, including the X-Line and X-Pro, and the turbo's strong acceleration and towing. The Sorento Hybrid makes 227 horsepower and is rated up to 36 mpg highway, with a total range of up to 655 miles on select trims, which pays off in stop-and-go Brooklyn traffic, starting at $38,890 for the EX FWD. The Sorento Plug-in Hybrid adds all-electric driving for short trips if you can charge at home or work. If most of your driving is in the city, the hybrid is usually the smartest pick.
Warranty from day one
Buying new means the clock starts fresh, and you get Kia's full coverage as the original owner: 5 years or 60,000 miles of basic coverage and 10 years or 100,000 miles on the powertrain. That 10-year powertrain coverage belongs to the first owner only, which makes it one of the strongest reasons to buy a Sorento new rather than used, especially with a turbo or hybrid powertrain. Kia's driver-assistance technology is standard on every trim, and 2026 models add hands-on detection on the steering wheel.
The honest part: the third row is tight. The Sorento's third row is best for kids or short trips, and cargo space behind it is limited when all seats are up, so if you regularly carry six or seven adults or a lot of gear, the Kia Telluride or Kia Carnival is the better fit. The base 2.5L engine can feel strained with a full load, so we recommend the turbo or hybrid for most families. And if you rarely use a third row, a Kia Sportage is easier to park and costs less.
What makes it work here
The Sorento hits a sweet spot for Brooklyn families. It is noticeably shorter than a full-size three-row SUV, so parallel parking on a tight block is manageable, yet it still gives you a third row for carpools and visiting relatives. The turbo engine makes highway merges effortless, available all-wheel drive with Terrain Mode handles winter weather and weekends upstate, and the hybrid saves the most fuel in exactly the stop-and-go traffic the city is known for.
The recognition, briefly
The Sorento has long been a popular choice for families who want three rows without a full-size footprint, praised for its upscale cabin, strong turbo engine, broad lineup that includes hybrid and plug-in hybrid versions, and long warranty. That reputation supports resale value, which helps keep lease payments down on a new Sorento.
