How does the Sorento's fuel economy hold up in real world driving as Kia claims?

The key is to drive it right. You'll see great numbers if you don't constantly ride heavy on the throttle and do a lot of short trips. On longer routes, it can be surprisingly efficient, but only if driven gently.
The Sorento's infotainment system is user friendly and features rich, but how does it compare to competitors?

The Sorento's infotainment is pretty intuitive, I find. It’s not the fanciest you’ll see out there, but it does the job without too much fuss. It’s nice to have physical buttons for key functions.
Is this true for the Kia Sorento?

It’s no secret that people love to complain online, but it’s rare to hear from happy customers. My 2020 Sorento has 80K miles and it has never missed a beat. Maintenance is key and regular maintenance goes a long way.
Is the gimmick third row really usable in the Sorento?

Definitely tight but I've used it for my kids' friends on short trips. It's good for occasional use. But you're not going to be putting adults back there on long journeys.
Is the Sorento's DCT transmission all it's cracked up to be or is it more headache than it's worth?

I think it’s great for enthusiasts, but maybe not the best choice for a family hauler. If you like driving and don’t mind some quirk, why not? It’s not smooth and simple, if that is what you want.
