There’s no such thing as a “normal day” in Staten Island. One minute you’re dropping the kids at school in Castleton Corners, the next you’re squeezing into a tight parking spot outside Key Food in New Dorp. You’ve got a commute that can swing from 25 minutes to two hours with zero warning, and weekends that usually involve hauling sports gear, supplies from Costco, and a couple cousins for good measure.

You need a vehicle that can roll with that. You need the 2025 or 2026 Kia Sorento - a midsize SUV that’s not just stylish, but built for borough life.

At Island Kia, we’ve got the latest Kia Sorento models for sale in Staten Island, ready for test drives, trade-ins, financing, and yes - leasing too. And if you want to reserve a 2026 Sorento before it hits the streets, we can help with that as well.

The Kia Sorento walks the line perfectly - it’s not as oversized as a Telluride, but it’s got a third row when you need it, and a sleek, city-smart footprint when you don’t.

Inside, you’ll find a surprisingly upscale interior that feels more like a luxury SUV than something with a Kia badge. And for 2025 and 2026, it gets even sharper - updated digital displays, premium materials, and design cues that make Staten Island traffic just a little more bearable.

Need to fold the seats down for a Home Depot run? Easy. Want to haul the whole family to Great Kills Beach without turning into a sardine can? Done. The Sorento gives you space where it matters, with clever storage and family-friendly tech baked in.

You don’t need to read a spec sheet to figure out what works. You need to know how a car feels on Clove Road, how it handles stop-and-go traffic by the Staten Island Mall, and whether the second row’s got enough room for three growing kids. The good news? The 2025 and 2026 Kia Sorento trims deliver - whether you’re keeping it simple or going full luxury.

The LX trim is all about value - perfect for budget-conscious buyers who still want modern safety features, touchscreen tech, and that unmistakable Sorento style. The EX hits the sweet spot with added comfort and convenience, while the SX and SX Prestige offer premium touches like leather seating, panoramic sunroofs, and advanced driver assistance features.

And for those who like their SUVs with a side of muscle, the X-Line trims offer rugged styling, increased ground clearance, and available all-wheel drive - perfect for winter mornings in Westerleigh or muddy soccer fields in Midland Beach.

Let’s talk engines - because Kia didn’t come to play. The 2025 Sorento comes with a choice of powertrains, including a 2.5L four-cylinder and an available turbocharged version that delivers serious pickup when you hit the gas.

Need better gas mileage for your daily Verrazzano commute? The Sorento Hybrid offers up to 37 MPG combined - without losing that Sorento versatility. And if you want to ditch gas altogether (or at least try), ask us about the Sorento Plug-In Hybrid - yes, you can charge it at home, and no, you don’t need to go full EV to feel the benefits.

The 2026 Kia Sorento continues to evolve, with even more refined powertrain options expected - including a more efficient hybrid system and additional all-wheel drive configurations for those of us who don’t let a little snow slow us down.

You know what nobody wants? A dashboard that feels like a spaceship and distracts you from real driving. Kia gets that. The Sorento’s tech is intuitive, clean, and made for multitasking without overwhelm.

The 2025 model includes a wide-format touchscreen that integrates Apple CarPlay and Android Auto standard, along with multiple USB ports (because your backseat passengers are definitely not sharing a charger). Optional navigation, Bose audio, and a digital instrument cluster elevate the experience if you’re going all in.

For the 2026 Sorento, Kia is expected to roll out a refreshed infotainment interface and even more connected features - including over-the-air updates, meaning your car gets smarter without you doing anything. It’s Staten Island-proof: tough, modern, and not trying to be something it’s not.

If you’ve ever braked hard on Victory Boulevard or swerved to avoid a rogue shopping cart at Staten Island Mall, you know the importance of safety features that actually work.

Kia’s Drive Wise suite comes standard on most Sorento models and includes features like forward collision warning, lane keeping assist, blind-spot collision avoidance, and rear cross-traffic alerts. Because here, people back out of driveways like they’re fleeing a scene.

And with available adaptive cruise control and highway driving assist, longer hauls - whether it's to Jersey, upstate, or just the Outerbridge - get a whole lot more manageable.

At Island Kia, we’re here to help you make the numbers work - not pressure you into a corner. Whether you’re leasing a 2025 Sorento, financing a 2026 model, or looking to reserve a custom build, we’ll walk you through the options honestly.
