Kia Sorento Ground Clearance by Year

Kia Sorento ground clearance ranges from 6.9 to 8.2 inches across the catalog years. The range covers model years 2003 through 2022; it is not a single figure that applies to every Sorento.

The listed clearance can vary by year and trim, so use the catalog entry for the specific vehicle rather than treating either end of the range as universal. The available facts do not identify which years or trims correspond to particular figures, or provide separate measurements by engine.

If you need a figure for a specific Sorento and it is not listed, confirm it in the owner's manual.

Stored ground clearance by year. Missing years have no clearance figure in this extract.

The largest stored change occurs between 2020 and 2021, when ground clearance increases.
