Kia Sorento vs. Hyundai Santa Fe

• Size and space. Both classified as midsized SUVs, the Kia Sorento and the Hyundai Santa Fe are nearly identical when it comes to exterior size and dimensions. But dive a little deeper and you'll find that the Kia SUV excels on the inside, where it offers a third row and capacity for seven passengers, perfect for when you have a family or need to find room for a couple friends. The Hyundai, on the other hand, is strictly a two-row SUV that can only seat five people.
• Power and options. Both of these SUVs offer drivers two engines to choose from, including a base 191-horsepower options and an upgrade that's available on top-tier models and delivers 281 horsepower. But while the Kia makes this engine available across four great trim levels, the Hyundai only allows drivers to get this level of power on their top-of-the-line trims with limited availability.
• Standard and optional features. While the Hyundai Santa Fe and Kia Sorento both have long lists of standard amenities, the Kia has more. For example, every Sorento has standard heated exterior mirrors, while the Hyundai has them optional on upper trims. Additionally, the Kia has more features available sooner in the lineup than the Santa Fe, such as remote engine start and auto climate control, which you can get on the second Kia trim, and not until higher for the Santa Fe.

You might prefer the Kia Sorento if...

• ...you like the flexibility of a third row of seating for extra passengers.
• ...you want as many features as possible standard.
