2026 Kia Sorento X-Line SX Prestige AWD Overview near Ithaca, NY

2026 Kia Sorento shown above with optional equipment. 

If you’re on the fence about which 2026 Sorento trim level fits your needs, we have an excellent option for you to consider at Williams Kia of Elmira. When you opt for the X-Line SX Prestige AWD edition, you’ll have a midsize SUV that fuses rugged durability with advanced technology. We’re here to provide you with a sneak peek of its capabilities, and you can schedule a test drive on Route 20 today!

Exterior

The Sorento X-Line SX Prestige AWD commands attention around Ithaca with its striking characteristics and polished appearance. High-utility roof rails1 not only expand your storage capabilities, but they also amplify the SUV’s silhouette from afar. Loading your groceries will be an effortless experience, since the Smart Power Liftgate automatically opens when you approach the rear bumper. Do you plan on taking this model off-road? An 18.4-degree approach angle and 8.2-inch ground clearance will make steep ascents easy to handle. You won’t have to worry about damaging the powertrain or fuel tank either, since the Gloss-Black skid plates shield the vehicle’s undercarriage. 

Performance

If the exterior of the 2026 Kia Sorento X-Line SX Prestige AWD didn’t convince you to climb in, the verve radiating from its core will. A 2.5L turbocharged 4-cylinder system energizes your treks to Stewart Park with 281 horsepower and 311 lb.-ft. of torque. To conserve gas, Idle Stop and Go automatically shuts off the powertrain when the SUV comes to a complete halt. Then, when your foot is removed from the brake, the engine will roar back to life. This results in a 20/27/23 MPG city/hwy/combined2 fuel economy rating to boost your time spent in the driver’s seat. Lastly, when frigid weather sweeps across the East Coast, the AWD3 system’s Snow mode will provide ample traction. 

Technology

Kia has a reputation for being a trendsetter in automotive technology, and the 2026 Sorento X-Line SX Prestige AWD continues that narrative. A 12.3-inch touchscreen4 will be your hub for all of your multimedia needs. This interface also comes with onboard navigation, so you can drop a pin on your destination’s coordinates to view turn-by-turn directions on the 12.3-inch curved instrument display4. For your family, a Wi-Fi hotspot5 provides high-speed streaming so you won’t have to worry about draining your data plan. Best of all, a 12-speaker Bose®6 Premium Audio System will let crisp acoustics and decibels reverberate throughout the cabin. If you have pressing questions before visiting our dealership, contact us to receive a prompt and detailed response.

Our experience with Williams Kia was nothing short of amazing! We had the best sales woman, her name was Carrie. She took what is usually a not so fun experience and made it simple and exciting. We will definitely return to her for our next vehicle. Thanks Carrie

Great Service Center

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about the service center. I was in a time crunch and Bill and Holly went above and beyond to take care of the issues I was having with my car and getting it inspected. They were super pleasant and were able to fit me in. It meant so much to me they were so helpful because I do not know much about cars and I took my car to Mavis tire previously to try to get my check engine light turned off but they did not fix the problem. They were able to figure out why my light was on, drive it 50 miles and inspect my car all in a matter of a few days. They are kind, genuine people and although I do not live in town anymore, I would make the drive to get their service.

Ashley Good is amazing

I didn't buy a car...yet. I worked with Ashley Good and she has amazing integrity and ethics. She wants everything to make sense instead of just making a sale. The deal wasn't right for me at this time; I'm keeping my 2020 truck for now. Ashley knew it wasn't right. We discussed it at length and agreed it just didn't make sense - she said she wasn't comfortable with it at all. She offered complete understanding and ZERO pressure. I WILL buy my next vehicle from her and I WILL refer people to her in the interim. Go talk with Ashley - she can sell you anything on a Williams lot, not just Kia. I promise, you won't regret it. Update July 31st, 2021... My mom drove off in a cute 2021 Toyota CH-R today that she purchased through Ashley. It was absolutely the right car and deal for her. No haggle pricing and quick easy deal. Ashley took her time during delivery to go over all of the technology and answer my mom's questions. GO SEE ASHLEY!!

Brian is very easy to deal with

After getting the (Simmons Rockwell) runaround several times from the service manager on our Nissan at Simmons Rockwell we decided to come to Williams Kia, very glad we did. Dealt with Brian in sales and he was very easy to deal with and not at all pushy. Basically we ended up buying a new vehicle and the entire process from start to final price was very good. Done with Simmons Rockwell finally. Thank you to Williams Kia.

We stumbled upon the dealership, which is an hour away from our home, during a road trip to pick up our daughter from college. After a test drive of the Kia Sportage, we were sold. We were so thrilled with the price, service, and quality of the product, we ended up making a lease deal through Don that very day. It could not have been easier and they took care of every detail. Such a GREAT experience!

Josh was a very professional salesman.

Josh was a very professional salesman. Really not too pushy at all. He treated with much kindness and respect. Josh was very knowledgeable of the vehicle we were buying. Read much about this vehicle in Consumer Research magazine. Yes, I spent some money but it's the very first brand new car we've owned and we've been married 38 years. Williams Toyota is a wonderful dealership, very nice personnel. Like I said Josh was great.

Sales staff were accommodating and friendly.
