When reversing the Sorento, rear cross-traffic alert will detect if a car is crossing behind your path, which should considerably help reduce car park incidents. Rounding out the Platinum are heated and ventilated front seats, heated second-row seats and individual third-row air vents with separate on/off and fan control switches.
The driver’s seat has 10-way power-assistance, as well as four-way lumbar support and an extending knee support available at the touch of a button. It would be almost impossible to not find the perfect driving position. It also comes with two memory settings, so it is simply a matter of hitting a button on the door to move the seat and wing mirrors into your preferred set-up if you share the car with your partner.
Even the passenger seat has eight-way adjustment and two-way lumbar support, and the headrests for both front seats have four adjustments.
An electric power tailgate, which can make loading and unloading the car a lot easier, is also standard along with a panoramic sunroof, HID headlights and LED daytime running lights, a heated steering wheel and built-in sunshade blinds for rear passenger windows.
Carried over from the previous generation Sorento, the Platinum’s exclusively available turbo-diesel has been tweaked to produce slightly more power and torque than before (2kW and 5Nm) and, matched to a six-speed automatic transmission, claims 7.8 litres per 100 kilometres â€" up 0.5L/100km on the older and 76kg lighter Sorento.
