2016 Sorentos at Jim Butler Kia Earn IIHS Top Safety Pick

Jim Butler Kia in Chesterfield Valley has the safe family SUV you’ve been searching for with the 2016 Kia Sorento which earned an IIHS Top Safety Pick. 

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) noted the ’16 Sorento’s great improvement in the small overlap crash test, even saying the crash test models “indicate[d] a low risk of any significant injuries in a crash of this severity.” The small overlap test is a relatively new safety test brought about in 2012. This test replicates what happens when the front corner of a vehicle collides with another vehicle or an object such as a tree or pole.


When combined with the Sorento’s other good ratings in moderate overlap front, side, roof strength and head restraints and seats crashworthiness tests, the ’16 Sorento becomes a 2015 Top Safety Pick by IIHS.

Jim Butler Kia in Chesterfield Valley has a wide selection of 2016 Sorentos to choose from including some with all-wheel drive. The 2016 Sorento is bred for adventure and has three engines (2.4-liter inline-4, turbocharged 2.0-L inline-4 and 3.3-L V6) across eight trims with a long list of features that make for an outstanding family vehicle or the “perfect getaway” vehicle for a camping weekend.
