Driver Insights
From local ads and forum discussions, Sorento 2012 is popular among families who need a comfortable long-distance diesel 7-seater but don’t want to pay Land Cruiser money. It sits against Mitsubishi Outlander, Hyundai Santa Fe and older Toyota Kluger/Highlander–type SUVs.
Owners state that the high seating position offers a clear forward view, although rear visibility is limited by the design. Feedback shows that the electric power steering is very light at low speeds, which helps with parking in tight spaces.
