7:18 This is why I love Nathan's off-road reviews.

Too early

This Sorento is doing better than the last one off-road.

This guy's my favorite of the tfl crew. A fellow metal head.

Nathan the way you describe the suspension and handling sounds .....very comfortable. That's excellent!! These cars shouldn't be stiff and bumpy thumpy.

Nathan always brings the heat, and doesn't sugar coat it. And hopefully his ankle is 100% healed because his reviews are super honest and doesn't bs 🎯🎯🎯

I love how animated you are!!!! Great video!!!

You reviews are growing on me Nathan... your like the ' Fred Flinstone ' of TFL.... thats a good thing ! 🙂 ' Enough Room for Romans toupee's ? LOL !! YOUR FIRED !

Amen Nathan💯no body gonna get out of this and air down the tires. I see that in comments too and say get real.

Looks like David did some more alterations to that section of the course. :)

Low key, you’re my favourite reviewer 😊

I love it when Hyundai/Kia make their "off-road" version vehicles not too utilitarian looking on the inside interior. Reminds me of an LR product. Rugged on the outside. Posh and fancy on the inside.

There was a time when Sorento took off-road seriously. But somewhere in the middle it lost its way.

@krane15 I don't think it ever took off-road seriously. Like Nathan said, it's gear more for comfort for families. Now, the new Hyundai Santa Fe, I think that will be a more serious contender as an off-road vehicle. Just the styling alone, let you know what their target audience is.

@@jraheemjefcoat429 The first gen was a true body-on-frame truck with a solid rear axle, skid plates, part-time 4WD, low range and a limited slip rear diff. Despite the off road equipment it was still pretty good to drive on-road, and most people never used it off road, so for the second generation they just got rid of all the off road stuff.

Actually it's not that bad considering it's just an off-road themed family station wagon

Can I put an x large mountain bike in the back with the seats down?

No, it's not 50% of the power, a locked clutch sends power to whatever wheel/axle can put it to the ground acting like an instant torque vectoring. 50% is what an OPEN differential sends to each half-shaft

Did better than the previous one.

Only because of the tires.

I get some what better off road then on road.. but I would avoid it at all cost on buying it.. rent it first before buying it

🔥🔥🔥

Please take the mitsubishi outlander on the off road course.

Nathan always drive it like you stole it.

Have to pay extra now a days just to get some tire

How does it compare to the 2024 jeep grand Cherokee?

4:21 no tow? So it's like your Santa Cruz then?😂 Did they ever do the recall? Situations like that are why i don't consider Hyundai/Kia.

@@Dwealdric I didn't make the comparison. I pointed out why the comparison wasn't a good one to make.

Old Sorendos where really good and capable suvs and this one looks good too, I'd buy it 🤷‍♂️

Wrong transmission

Not a fan of the new face, the one thing I hated about the Telluride was the weird afterthought lookin headlights and now they doubled down on a them. And Kia, bring back the V6 Sorento! My '19 3.3 Sorento gets better MPG with a 2000 pound trailer than my brother's smaller turbo Sportage.

And while they're doing that, ditch the DCT. It's not a supercar/hypercar.

I hate how the steering wheel is so small it's like a frisbee. I'm old school I like the bigger steering wheel especially with an suv or truck

How you can review a Kia with the exploding DCT without talking about their reliability issues shows you're in the manufacturer's pocket...

In 2006 the swedish Off Road magazine drove a stock Kia Sorento from Stockholm Sweden to Beijing China, over the Siberian tundra and Mongolian steppe with only a few flat tires. That’s true overland and useable off-road. What the 2024 Sorento is, I don’t know

Diagonal obstacles cannot be passed only with tires. Need a proper AWD system. The car passed their test. and not overheated. The car would have passed even without momentum. Just use the normal mode and traction cotrol ON and steady acceleration. They knew. But they didn't used in the video. Why?
