The sorento is a good vehicle all round. BUT it loves gas ( petrol). It weights in empty at 2100 kgs, now thats a lot of weight to carry around.It likes human beings - the heavier you are the more effort is required. I have a new 3.5 lx auto and driven normally comes in at 12 liters/100 kms. ( too lazy to convert to mpg)
driven like an idiot that goes to 17 . But i have just converted to LPG and will post some details later. I am based in Brussels and get LPG at 0.25 pounds strirling per liter.The figures above are for gas,(petrol), LPG consumption is about 12% over these figures, but at 25p a liter who cares?? This makes the Sorento v6 cheaper to drive in Europe than the states. --well nearly. Just a point , loaded with 700 kgs the figures went to 14 normal and 18 idiot. If I do not go over 80 KPH can do 10 liters/100 km, but thats not fun!!!!!!
