Pre-Owned 2011 KIA Sorento for $17,995

The Kia Sorento was designed from the ground up for strength and durability. The starting point is a separate ladder-frame chassis, which provides its considerable backbone for towing and flex-free off-road performance. Above this sits a body incorporating a rigid passenger safety cell and deformable crumple zones. Prior to the multiple paint layers, the whole chassis/body structure – which utilizes galvanized steel in vulnerable areas – is carefully prepared and primed to fend off corrosion. After painting, body cavities are treated to resist moisture and the entire underbody is sealed to prevent damage and to enhance ride quietness.
