Kia has to explain why they have 3 car models that are essentially the same with a base MSRP within $1000 of each other.Well, in the KIA brand it seems that there really are some differences. The Niro is some sort of hybrid, the Sorento is a passenger hauler with 3rd row seating and the Sportage is somewhere in between. While the Sorento might be the battleship of the product line it’s price range in the model start’s off with the engine and then the trim. It’s real easy to get to $40K.
