Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

All-new plug-in hybrid model

Pros
Impressive number of standard and optional features
Lots of second- and third-row legroom for the class
Sharp-looking and easy-to-use infotainment system

Cons
Not as compact as the last-generation Sorento

By: 
edmunds.com

A plug-in-hybrid model joins the Sorento lineup for the 2022 model year. Its powertrain combines a turbocharged four-cylinder and six-speed automatic transmission with an electric motor for a total system output of 261 horsepower. All-wheel drive is standard, and Kia claims the plug-in Sorento has a combined fuel-economy rating of 79 MPGe and an electric-only range of 32 miles. While we don't know how much the PHEV variant will cost, we know it'll be offered in two top-tier trims: SX and SX-P.

Pros
Looks classy and rugged inside and out,
lots of powertrain options,
pleasant to drive,
and comfy to ride in.

Cons
Adults should avoid the third row,
bigger touchscreen skips wireless smartphone mirroring,
cargo space can be compromised.

The Q2 is pleasingly bold on the surface, but plays with a very safe bat beneath it

Pros
Bold styling (for Audi),
should be a doddle to live with

Cons
Not especially fun to drive, few real benefits over an A3

By: 
topgear.com

Pros
Huge scope for personalisation
Stylish, high-quality interior
Great range of engines

Cons
Many rivals are cheaper
Limited kit on entry-level model
Large wheels affect ride comfort

By: 
carbuyer.co.uk

Pros
Spacious interior
Impressive safety kit
Good build quality

Cons
High price
Firm ride on larger wheels
Best features are optional

It can rumble with hot hatches, but does Audi's youth-focussed compact SUV warrant its $50K-plus price tag?

Pros
Performance aplenty
Nice road manners...
... and adroit handling
Silky smooth dual-clutch auto

Cons
Asks for Q3 money
Misses key safety tech
Second row not the last word in comfort
