( www.TFLcar.com ) The new 2014 KIA Sorento is 80 percent new. From the outside it might look like a slight refreshed car, but it has a new direct injected 3.3L V-6 engine, new interior and new suspension set-up. It also three rows of seats and and all-wheel-drive. Of course most people will use the 2014 KIA Sorento as a family and stuff hauling machine but we figured if it can tackle the Colorado Mountains it can tackle the very worse snow storm that buyers might even face. In other fun and informative part 1 TFLcar review, we take the new 2014 KIA Sorento off-road to see how it does when the road turns muddy, steep and snowy.

This dynamax AWD system with the locking differential button is what sets these Kia's and Hyundai's apart from other AWD systems. That just figure everything out automatically. Granted this system does that to but it's nice to have that locking diff button for the tough stuff. And it's not just a "button" for show it's actually a VERY competent system. Couple that with the potent 3.3L V6 and a set of all weather or A/T tires like falken wildpeak a/t trails and this could go A LOT of places other awd vehicles couldn't. Since they lack the locking diff button.

I have a 2011 Kia Sorento. The newly revamped version 3.5. It’s still running like a charm today even though it’s exposed to winter road salt here in northern Canada. When we get a huge snowfall, it performs well. ( we have himalaya winter tires.) I travel in deep snow with confidence. If you want to travel off road, then may I suggest an ol 4wd jacked up pickup. But if you want to pass traffic, the sorento has lots of high end to get by a few semis in a short period of time

Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching but we suspect that for some ...unless the car needs a periscope in the water...this is the kind of road...they'll tell us...they drive to work everyday in their 1998 Camry.

You guys are awesome! Love all your reviews. As far as testing CUV's offroad, bravo! I may not go off road, but if I have to drive during floods or after a hurricane (going over small downed trees or through muddy yards because road is impassable) it's good to know what the vehicle is capable of. Thanks!

P.S. I've driven during and after many hurricanes as well as torrential down pours. The offroad reviews you provide are even beneficial to us down here in the southeast. People may not use their vehicle offroad, but there may come a time in life when they aren't given a choice. Always good to know what your vehicle can do.

After going back and watching the Subaru's attempt... there was alot more snow on the ground when the Subaru came through. Did you guys try it with both the X-mode on and off? It almost seemed like the X-mode was flat out locking the tires up that were slipping, but the car kept moving thus dragging the non-turning wheels.

I would like to see an old vs new test. First generation Sorento vs the new model. Maybe take them both for a lap around White Rim Trail? (Its an easy trail) Then maybe the Jeep Cherokee XJ vs the new Jeep Cherokee when it becomes available? Or maybe a 3rd or 4th Gen Explorer vs the new Explorer? Maybe take tires out of the equation and have a default tire to equip all test vehicles with. BFG All-Terrains? Just a thought.

Don't know what buddy means by 6 cylinder is new we have a 2010 V6 but also came in a 4 or 8 cylinder. Unlike mutetender below I don't need to make three comments to tell you how I feel about the car and what you should or shouldn't buy.

The video editors and camera crew did a great job with this video. The location is beautiful. The idea is fun too. 98% of Sorentos will never see a trail like this. The hosts need a little more experience. Their on-screen time felt awkward. The scene when the guy outside of the truck is screaming to Nathan to avoid the creek was annoying. You will get me to subscribe because I like cars, but your hosts have a lot of work to do to get me to watch them regularly.

Don't take a Kia off road. Off road is a whole different world when compared to normal driving. You can't have extremely soft suspension when off-roading, like this car does. If you go over a rock, the undercarriage is put at risk for being slammed down onto the ground because of slow rebound and poor shock dampening. You can't take a road bike down a mountain bike trail safely, and off-roading with this is essentially what you'd be doing. (No 4WD, road tires, low ground clearance, poor weight distribution, and it's not ruggedly built)
