Check out the review of the brand-new 2012 Kia Sorento Crossover!
Having driven both the 2012 Sorento Crossover SUV for this review (and the 2012 Kia Rio for a review still to come), I was struck by the upgrade in overall build quality and features throughout the line from even recent years’ models. While Kia might’ve been looked at as a strictly affordable, more stripped down option for buyers looking to buy cheaper than German, the automakers has stepped up its collective game to start making some quality, but still affordable vehicles.
The new Sorento’s collection of features and driver quality positions it well to compete with similar sized, in-class vehicles such as the Subaru Outback, Honda CR-V and the Toyota RAV4. The vehicle went through a major redesign in 2011. While the 2012 has a few upgrades, the modern styling stays close to last year’s look.
You can get a four-cylinder engine with direct fuel injection for more power and better fuel economy. Otherwise, standard issue includes a 2.4 liter V4 engine with a manual transmission (optional automatic), Bluetooth, iPod connector, satellite radio (optional with subscription), side/curtain airbags, stability control and traction control.
You can throw in options like a heated driver’s seat, upgraded sound system and the newly redesigned Kia UVO voice activated interface.
In the cargo and passenger carrying department, the Sorento is a crossover – a smaller than traditional SUV – that’s still big enough to carry three rows of passengers. If you want to move the third row of seats out of the way, you open enough a large enough cargo bay for several bags of groceries, more than one golf bag.

Kia Motors America partners with Wounded Warrior Project to provide 2012 Soul to a disabled American Veteran
NEW YORK, April 9, 2012 - At the 2012 New York International Auto Show opening ceremony this weekend, Kia Motors America (KMA) joined forces with the Wounded Warrior Project, a national organization dedicated to providing help and raising public awareness for injured service members, to donate a 2012 Kia Soul hatchback to disabled veteran and United States Army Corporal Christopher Melendez. Melendez was injured in the line of duty while on routine patrol in Iraq by a "six pack shape charge" IED, resulting in severe leg and arm injuries. Working with the organizers of the New York International Auto Show, the Soul was modified to meet Melendez's specific day-to-day needs. This donation comes directly on the heels of Kia's donation to Camp Pendleton Armed Services YMCA's Operation Hero program in coordination with brand ambassador and professional women's golfer Michelle Wie.
Kia Motors America Partners with Wounded Warrior Project to Donate 2012 Kia Soul to Disabled Veteran Army Corporal Christopher Melendez of New York City
"Kia Motors understands that it is not only important to show our commitment to the U.S. market through investment and job creation, but also to support the servicemen and women in our country's armed forces," said Michael Sprague, vice president, marketing & communications, KMA. "The Wounded Warrior Project provides invaluable services to the men and women who have been injured in the line of duty, and it is an honor to donate one of our most popular vehicles to Corporal Melendez as a way to show our appreciation and support for those who have sacrificed so much."
The 2012 Soul, retrofitted by New York-based Bussani Mobility Team was modified specifically to allow Corporal Melendez to continue with his daily activities through modifications that assist when flexibility is limited. The modifications include a steering wheel device that allows him to turn the steering wheel using one hand, while maintaining complete control of the wheel and car at all times, however all alterations are easily removable to allow others who do not need them to drive the vehicle safely.

2012 Kia Rio named to best cars for teens list by vroomgirls.com
IRVINE, Calif., April 2, 2012 - The award-winning Kia Rio has been honored once again, this time as one of the "Six Best New Cars for your Teenager" by Vroomgirls.com – the first comprehensive automotive website created by and for women. The site hailed the Rio for its modern styling, high fuel economy and exceptional overall value. Also highlighted was the subcompact's abundance of standard amenities, including USB connectivity and steering-wheel controls, while Rio's impressive warranty and available navigation system received nods as well.
"Rio being recognized as one of the 'Six Best New Cars for your Teenager' by Vroomgirls.com further validates all of the virtues which have made it popular with both parents and young drivers," said Michael Sprague, vice president, marketing & communications, Kia Motors America (KMA). "Excelling in design, fuel economy, value and driving enjoyment makes the Rio a truly well-rounded choice in the competitive subcompact segment."
Editors from Vroomgirls.com evaluated vehicles based on several main parental-focused criteria, including safety, reliability and value, but also considered factors important to teenage drivers such as user-content, fun-to-drive character and styling. Vroomgirls.com selected the vehicles that offer the best combination of these characteristics.
"Parents want a safe, reliable car for their kids, but teens only care about what's cool," said Tara Weingarten, Vroomgirls.com editor-in-chief. "The 2012 Kia Rio checks both of those boxes."
