The KIA Sorento BL 2.5L, produced from 2003 to 2007, marked KIA's entry into the mid-size SUV segment, offering an alternative to established players like the Toyota Highlander and Honda Pilot. This first generation Sorento, codenamed BL, boasted a robust and practical design, emphasizing functionality over flashy styling. Powered by a 2.5-liter inline-four petrol engine or a 2.5-liter inline-four diesel engine, the Sorento provided adequate power for both on-road and light off-road use. Despite its unrefined exterior design compared to its competitors, the Sorento offered a spacious interior with seating for up to seven passengers and a considerable cargo area. The vehicle included features such as a four-wheel independent suspension for a comfortable ride, a standard five-speed manual transmission, and the option for a four-speed automatic transmission. While not known for luxury, the Sorento BL provided a reliable and affordable option for families and individuals looking for a practical and versatile vehicle. It offered a good balance between functionality and price, positioning itself as a competitive option in the growing SUV market. The 2003-2007 Sorento BL benefitted from a well-equipped interior with a range of comfort and convenience features, including power windows, power locks, and air conditioning. It also came with a decent level of safety equipment, including airbags and anti-lock brakes. The Sorento BL's success solidified KIA's presence in the SUV market and paved the way for future generations of the model, each with further refinements and improvements, ultimately cementing the Sorento as a strong contender in the mid-size SUV segment.
