Performance & Capability
The 2026 Kia Sorento X-Pro SX Prestige AWD is powered by a 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine paired with an 8-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, producing about 281 hp and 311 lb-ft of torque. This configuration delivers confident acceleration and capability, including a max towing capacity around 4,500 lbs, making it capable for light towing tasks and family outdoor gear. With full-time all-wheel drive and multiple drive modes (Normal, Sport, Smart, Snow, Mud and Sand), it’s tailored for varied road conditions.

Rugged & Stylish Design
The X-Pro variant adds distinctive exterior accents and rugged touches compared with standard Sorento trims. It typically features 17-inch gloss black alloy wheels with all-terrain tires, black body trim, skid plates, and bold styling cues that emphasize both on- and off-road readiness. AWD-ready body cladding and a sleek grille further enhance its adventurous appearance.

Interior Comfort & Technology
Inside, the X-Pro SX Prestige AWD blends comfort and technology for everyday life and road trips. It has leather seating, heated front seats and steering wheel, and third-row seating for up to six passengers. Standard modern conveniences include Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, navigation, premium audio, blind-spot monitoring, and a suite of driver-assist systems like adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping assist. A panoramic sunroof and power liftgate add convenience and premium feel.

Practicality & Efficiency
EPA-estimated fuel economy for the turbo AWD setup is around 20 mpg city / 27 mpg highway with efficient highway cruising capability. The three-row layout balances passenger space and cargo flexibility, although cargo room behind the third row is modest for the class. High-quality materials and thoughtful storage options help make the cabin a comfortable daily environment.

Positioning
As one of the top gasoline AWD trims in the 2026 Sorento lineup, the X-Pro SX Prestige AWD combines rugged styling and additional capability with premium comfort and technology — appealing to buyers who want a versatile family SUV that’s equally ready for weekend adventures.
