This is the Kia Sorento Vs Toyota Kluger comparison for 2021. The Sorento is a visual update in 2021 and it seems that it’s styling is the key factor is differentiating it from the Hyundai Santa Fe, its \u00a0parent company. The current Toyota Kluger is at the end of it’s production run and the all new Toyota is already being released around the world and should be here later this year.<\/p>\n

Kia Sorento Vs Toyota Kluger exterior comparison: After seeing the new Kulger vs the current 2021 Klger it is clear where Toyota are heading in terms of styling. The current design is nearly 8 years old BTW. In that context the Kia Sorento design is like a design that Toyota would have made but didn’t. Regardless both are currently decent looking large SUVs that would appeal to the majority of buyers in the class.<\/p>\n

Kia Sorento Vs Toyota Kluger interior comparison: The Kluger has an older interior design, clearly targeted as a typical durable interior for real families and very much ‘Toyota’. There is nothing pretentious or upmarket to terms of the materials and design by 2021 standards. The Kia Sorento in comparison has a very modern interior that aspires to be upmarket, at least for the top range model grades. In that regard we prefer the ambience of the Sorento in the higher end models.<\/p>\n

Kia Sorento Vs Toyota Kluger engine and technology comparison: The Sorento has the state of the art safety tech dependent on model grade and has the option of a decent turbo diesel engine. The diesel engine may degrade the refinement of the perceived sporty design but at least there is a petrol engine option. The petrol engine is a well known model in the Toyota range, boasting power, refinement and reliability. The rest of the tech and safety system are class competitive but 2020 standard though.<\/p>\n

Kia Sorento Vs Toyota Kluger drive report : N\/A<\/p>\n

The conclusion and winner of the Kia Sorento Vs Toyota Kluger comparison is the Sorento. The Kia wins by edging out the Kluger in offering a diesel engine option, better safety systems and a nicer interior. It is hard to believe that Kia is priced more than the Toyota but lets face it a 8 year old design without any technical updates so it shouldn’t be hard to beat – and Kia have made the effort and succeeded at least until the new model Kluger arrives.<\/p>\n
