The new Sorento PHEV is offered with a 66.9 kW electric motor and a 1.6-liter turbocharged engine that combine to achieve 261 horsepower.

In addition, the Sorento PHEV achieves an EPA-estimated 79 MPGe combined rating.
Enhancing Sorento’s capabilities is standard torque-vectoring all-wheel-drive, offering go-anywhere confidence. Delivering an upscale and feature-rich cabin accommodating up to six passengers, its 143.8 cubic feet of passenger space and second-row legroom better any other PHEV SUV. Furthermore, it is the only mainstream PHEV SUV to offer three-row seating.
