The 2008 Kia Sorento is the top ranking midsize SUV in AutoPacific, Inc.’s 2008 Vehicle Satisfaction Awards (VSA), an industry benchmark for objectively measuring owner satisfaction of new vehicles. In this competitive segment, Sorento received a higher rating than the Hummer H3, Jeep Liberty, Dodge Nitro and Nissan Xterra.
“Sorento’s recognition by AutoPacific’s Vehicle Satisfaction Awards shows that you don’t have to spend a lot to be satisfied with your new vehicle purchase,” said Tom Loveless, vice president, sales of Kia Motors America (KMA).
“In these difficult economic times, it is good to know that you can still purchase an SUV with great amenities, options and standard safety features, and be satisfied with your decision.”The 2008 VSA are based on survey responses from more than 34,000 vehicle owners who purchased a new 2008 model year car or truck between September and December 2007.
The 2008 Sorento was recently recognized by The Car Book as a “Best Bet” in the Midsize SUV category and received the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) five-star crash safety rating in all four seating positions. [Source: Kia]

That is so awesome. Kia is just amazing me lately like you wouldn’t believe. Everything is alive and well! All I ever hear about the big three is another strike or factory closing. Because of ford, Northern Michigan has lost over 26,900 jobs in the last 10 years. Those people are sick b@$+@rds! When I was in Detroit 2 weeks ago, almost every car I saw was a ford. That is blind loyalty! Don’t all these people see the big picture?? That sickens me to no end!!
