2027 Kia Sorento · A hybrid powertrain

Which 2027 Kia Sorento trims have a hybrid powertrain?

Three of the 11 trims. Kia current checked October 17, 2026; excludes $1,495 , taxes, paint and dealer charges. A is standard on the Hybrid EX, Hybrid X-Line EX and Hybrid X-Line SX Prestige. The LX, S, EX, SX, X-Line EX, X-Line SX, X-Line SX Prestige and X-Pro SX Prestige can't be ordered with it. The cheapest Sorento with it costs $39,090. It's a Hybrid EX.

Our Sorento data has all eleven US 2027 gas/HEV , fourteen factory trim/drive combinations and core roof/comfort . Both US 2026 PHEV trims are included under the 2026 year control. It doesn't have paint, interior color packages, dealer except the modeled tow hitch, incentives, allocation and factory order-bank status yet, so something missing from this page may still be offered.

This build drives only the front wheels. Adding adds a mechanical path. A badge alone does not mean all-wheel drive.

How this works

Illustrative wheel states and power flow, not a grip or stopping-distance prediction. Sorento uses a mechanical driveshaft and electronically controlled rear coupling. motors are at the , not at a separate . Snow, Mud and Sand modes do not add or axle . Kia’s control map and split are not simulated.

The front hybrid motor is integrated with the 6-speed transmission; either engine or motor power can reach the fitted rear axle. Engine on/off and regeneration are outside this traction demonstration.

About these comparisons

Each illustration and link uses the build behind its number. Comparisons cover the model years and bodies in our guides. Different rows can use different trims and equipment. Missing values aren’t treated as zero; reported prices and inferred ratings aren’t ranked.

  • Lowest listed trim price in each guide, before destination, options, taxes and fees. Cab and body styles can differ.
  • Highest published output found in each guide. This compares available power, not acceleration or the trim you selected.
  • Best published combined rating found in each guide, including regular hybrids. Plug-in ratings and inferred matches are excluded.
