The upcoming Kia Sorento PHEV London ON shoppers are watching continues Kia’s approach to plug-in hybrid driving by combining electric capability with the flexibility of a gasoline engine. While official Canadian 2027 Sorento PHEV specifications are not yet fully published, Kia Canada’s current Sorento PHEV provides a useful picture of what drivers can expect from this family-friendly SUV.
The Sorento PHEV pairs a 1.6-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine with an electric motor and a lithium-ion battery, with power sent through a six-speed automatic transmission to all four wheels. Kia Canada lists 261 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque for the current Canadian Sorento PHEV, giving it a useful balance of smooth electric driving and gasoline-powered flexibility.
For drivers who regularly commute around town, the plug-in system allows electric driving for shorter trips before the gasoline engine takes over. The current model offers up to 55 km of all-electric range, while Kia has not yet confirmed the final 2027 figures.
One of the biggest reasons to consider a Kia Sorento Plug-in Hybrid is the ability to charge at home and use electric power for everyday driving. The current Canadian model offers a 13.8-kWh battery and an estimated 3.8-hour charging time using a 240V connection. Kia also lists combined electricity-and-gas consumption of 3.2 Le/100 km on its current Canadian specifications.
The supplied 2027 information points toward a similar plug-in approach, but the final Kia Sorento PHEV charging time and Kia Sorento PHEV fuel economy figures should be confirmed once Kia Canada releases the official 2027 specifications.
The Sorento PHEV is designed around family practicality, with six-passenger seating and second-row captain’s chairs helping create a comfortable cabin. Kia Canada also highlights available features such as leather seating, ventilated front seats, a panoramic sunroof and a BOSE premium audio system.
Technology is another important part of the package. Depending on trim, shoppers can expect features such as a 12.3-inch digital display, Kia Connect, over-the-air updates, smartphone connectivity and advanced driver-assistance technologies. Available features include Highway Driving Assist 2, Surround View Monitor and other systems designed to make everyday driving easier.
The current Sorento PHEV also offers up to 2,000 lbs of towing capacity when properly equipped, giving it useful versatility beyond the daily commute. Cargo capacity reaches up to 2,139-litres behind the first row, while the PHEV retains the three-row SUV format that makes the Sorento practical for changing family needs.
The 2027 model should remain an appealing option for drivers who want electric driving capability without giving up the flexibility of a gasoline engine. With AWD, family-friendly space, advanced technology and the ability to charge at home, it has the ingredients of a well-rounded plug-in SUV. As official 2027 Canadian specifications become available, visit London Kia in London, ON to learn more and explore what the new Sorento PHEV has to offer.
