What Are the Differences Between 2019 Kia Sorento and 2019 Ford Explorer?

For an affordable price of just $26,290, buyers can get behind the wheel of a new seven-passenger 2019 Kia Sorento. The Sorento lineup features two trim-specific engine options that offer precise power in every model. The Kia Sorento L and LX are fitted with a 185-horsepower 2.4-liter DOHC 16-valve I-4 engine paired to an electronically controlled 6-speed automatic transmission. The rest of the 2019 Sorento lineup is powered by a 3.3-liter DOHC 24-valve V6 engine mated to an electronically controlled 8-speed automatic transmission with 290 horsepower and 252 pound-feet of torque on tap. Kia Sorento L and LX models earn an EPA-estimated 22 city mpg and 29 highway mpg fuel economy and offer up to 2,000 pounds of towing. The rest of the Sorento lineup earns an EPA-estimated 19 city mpg and 26 highway mpg and offer 3,500 pounds of towing in front-wheel-drive models and 5,000 pounds in all-wheel-drive models. The competing 2019 Ford Explorer starts off at a higher $32,365 and is powered by a standard 3.5-liter Ti-VCT V6 engine that earns an EPA-estimated fuel economy of 17 city mpg and 24 highway mpg, which falls short of each of the 2019 Sorento models.
2019 Kia Sorento models keep drivers and passengers entertained with standard features like Bluetooth® connectivity, Apple CarPlay®, Android Auto™, and a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment center display. The features found in the 2019 Ford Explorer fail to stand up to those found in the 2019 Sorento. The 2019 Ford Explorer comes equipped with a standard 4.2-inch color LCD infotainment screen and only offers Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ on select higher trim levels.
