Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2020 Kia Sorento 5 / 5 stars.

Why it stands out
The 2020 Kia Sorento stands out as a midsize SUV that had already grown into a more polished and practical shape by the end of its third generation. It offered a larger footprint than earlier Sorentos, a more rounded design, and a cabin that improved in material quality and passenger space. The third row was more accommodating than before, though it was still best suited to kids, which helps define the Sorento’s appeal: it was a family-friendly SUV that made real progress in comfort and refinement without losing its useful three-row layout.
For 2020, the Sorento’s lineup was shaped by a mix of familiar powertrains and a few notable changes. The turbocharged four-cylinder had been discontinued by that year, leaving the V6 with a new eight-speed transmission and a slight fuel-economy improvement. The model also received a light exterior refresh, with updated lights and bumpers, while the EX and SX Limited trims were dropped. Safety remained a strength, with standard rear parking sensors and available forward collision and lane-departure warnings, and the 2020 Sorento carried strong crash-test results from both NHTSA and IIHS.
What makes the 2020 Sorento especially appealing is that it balanced size, equipment, and value in a way that fit a broad range of buyers. It could be had with useful technology such as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and it offered a more upscale feel than many rivals thanks to improved interior materials. At the same time, buyers needed to accept that the base four-cylinder was considered too weak for the larger Sorento, and the third row remained limited for adults.

This was the perfect car for us! But for a family whose best vehicle was over 16 years old, maybe we were just easy to please. Such a great value though compared to other seemingly overpriced manufacturers.

Great interior and runs really good. We tried several other cars but did not like the fit. This one is very comfortable for us and room to expand! It will last us for years!

| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Current Average Price | $15,089 |

| Year-Round High | $17,071 |
| Average Price a Year Ago | $17,071 |
| Change vs. Last Year | −11.61% |
Prices have softened 11.61% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.
There are 1,974 listings available, which gives you a solid pool of options to compare.
Is the 2020 Kia Sorento a good car?
Yes — the 2020 Kia Sorento earns a 5/5 user rating, which points to strong owner satisfaction. The overview shows a midsize SUV that had matured into a more polished and practical three-row family vehicle, with improved cabin quality, more passenger space, and a useful layout. It also balances comfort, refinement, and value well, while still giving you technology like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. With 33.4% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have a meaningful chance to find a competitive offer.
Is the 2020 Kia Sorento reliable?
Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
The overview also points to a model that kept safety and practicality front and center, with standard rear parking sensors, available driver-assist features, and strong crash-test results. For used buyers, that combination suggests a lower-risk ownership experience if you choose a well-kept example and stay on top of maintenance.
What should I look for when buying a used 2020 Kia Sorento?
At 69.6% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
You should run a vehicle history report before you commit, then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection on any listing that looks especially appealing. Focus on body condition, signs of prior repair, and whether the interior and electronics match the seller’s description.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2020 Kia Sorento?
This is a moderate market, so you can shop selectively without expecting every listing to be a bargain.
- Deal availability: 33.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 1,974 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 11.61% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 69.6% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $15,089, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2020 Kia Sorento's resale value?
The current average of $15,089 sits slightly below last year's $17,071.
That price movement suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can help you buy at a more favorable point if you plan to keep the vehicle for several years. For a future seller, the softer current pricing means resale upside may depend more on condition, mileage, and trim appeal than on broad market momentum. Well-kept examples should still draw interest because the Sorento’s family-friendly layout and value-oriented reputation remain easy for shoppers to understand.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2020 Kia Sorento or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2020 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2020 if:
- 33.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 69.6% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 11.61% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
Consider the 2019 if:
- At $13,737, the 2019 costs less than the current year's $15,089 average.
- It offers a stylish, luxurious feel with strong family appeal and top crash-test ratings.
Consider the 2021 if:
- At $20,338, the 2021 costs more than the current year's $15,089 average.
- It brings a redesigned body, stronger tech, and standard advanced safety features.
The bottom line: The 2020 is the best all-around choice if you want a balanced mix of price, practicality, and owner satisfaction. If your priority is spending less, the 2019 is the smarter value play; if you want a newer redesign and can stretch your budget, the 2021 is the more modern alternative.
