Electrifying Luxe.
The iconic Sorento is luxury that now comes in electric. The Sorento Plug-In Hybrid leaves nothing left to be desired, with its world-class technology and benchmark design – now with both petrol and electric technology in one.
A limitless driving experience on lesser fuel consumption.
Design
Looks that thrill.
The Sorento has evolved with a new interpretation of the unmistakable ‘tiger nose’ grille, displaying a wider shape which organically wraps around the integrated LED headlights on each side.
The sharper, more assertive appearance is complemented by a wider lower air intake, book ended by wing-shaped air curtains to channel air around the car.
Sleek and sharp LED headlights, powerfully designed to light the way, not only in the dark of night, but in broad daylight.
A chiseled and muscular shape is just the start. Every variant in the range comes equipped with alloy wheels that have been specifically designed to complement the Sorento’s athletic design. This includes the full-size spare.
20" Dark chrome finish alloy wheels available on GT-Line grade.
19" Machine finish alloy wheels available on Sport+ grade.
18" Machine finish alloy wheels available on Sport grade.
17" alloy wheels available on S grade.
The vertical LED tail lights wrap around the side of the body for a more striking presence on the road.
Commanding luxury.

Performance
Versatile performance.
Smartstream 1.6L turbo petrol engine offers optimal fuel efficiency with impressive power and torque.
An electric motor producing 304Nm of torque is mounted between the petrol engine and the 6-speed transmission. This allows the full output of both petrol engine and/or electric motor to be transferred in parallel through the transmission, with minimal energy loss.
Energy storage is managed by a 14kWh Li-po battery located under the vehicle floor. The large battery capacity allows the PHEV to travel up to 68kms (WLTP^) on pure electric power.
