Per VINdown's modeling, the Kia Sorento Hybrid retains an estimated 58% of its original MSRP after five years, ranking #244 of 530 cars we track. That is roughly in line with the 58% five-year average for SUV in its class.

Most of the loss lands early: the Kia Sorento Hybrid sheds about 9% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $38,890 it falls to around $22,672 by year five — a five-year loss near $16,218, about $8.89 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Kia Sorento Hybrid bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
