2009 Kia Sorento
A rather attractively styled SUV, the ladder-frame Sorento actually has reasonable off-road capability. The 2-speed transfer case, on-demand or part-time 4WD, and a limited-slip rear differential confirm that the Sorento has more than gravel road prowess. Buyers can opt for a 2WD Sorento if extra traction isn't needed. The 262-bhp 3.8L V-6 is equipped with a 5-speed automatic. The Sorento has a long list of standard features and aggressive pricing that makes it a compelling SUV choice.
