Mumbai, Aug 3: Kia India, one of the country’s mass-premium automakers, teased its first hybrid SUV, the All–New Sorento, signaling the upcoming arrival of its globally acclaimed premium flagship SUV in India. Renowned across international markets for its sophisticated design, advanced technology and premium SUV experience, the All–New Sorento represents Kia‘s commitment to bringing its global product portfolio to Indian customers.
As Kia continues to strengthen its premium SUV portfolio, the All–New Sorento‘s India debut is the natural next step in that journey. It is set to redefine expectations in the segment by combining bold design, intelligent innovation and exceptional versatility. Since its global debut in 2002, Sorento has grown into one of Kia‘s most successful nameplates, spanning four generations and over 4.8 million units sold across 132 countries. It has consistently ranked among Kia‘s top three best-selling models globally in 2024 and 2025 and has been recognised with accolades including the IIHS Top Safety Pick+, a 5-Star NHTSA safety rating, and Car and Driver’s Editors’ Choice award — a track record of safety, quality and enduring global appeal that Kia’s premium flagship SUV now coming to India in its most advanced and capable version yet, engineered with Kia‘s latest technology and innovations at its core.
The All–New Sorento makes its presence felt, even under wraps. The teaser reveals a tall, upright silhouette with a pronounced shoulder line and a wide, bold stance, reflecting a purposeful family SUV built for both road presence and versatility. At the front, a striking illuminated lighting graphic cuts a bold, angular path across the hood, paired with a secondary lighting cluster lower on the bumper, suggesting a distinctive two-tier lighting signature for the India-spec model.
Together, these design cues offer a strong sense of the scale and presence the All–New Sorento will bring to Kia India‘s SUV line-up, reflecting the confidence Kia India places in the Sorento‘s ability to resonate with Indian customers. Ahead of its official India launch, interested customers can pre-book the All–New Sorento through their nearest Kia India dealership.
True to Kia‘s global promise of ‘Movement that Inspires’, the All–New Sorento carries that spirit into India. Further details on the All–New Sorento will be announced in due course as Kia India prepares to usher in a new benchmark in premium SUV mobility.
