The Most Powerful Subaru Ever Is This Electric Family SUV - Lemmy.World

I wish I could afford a 3 row electric SUV. A sentence younger me never thought I’d say.
Same, but I want a compact 3-row. Like the 3rd the row is available in case I need to carry more than 4 people, but otherwise the seats are folded down for cargo space. It’s annoying that the Kia Sorento is what fits the bill, and it’s way cheaper than the competition too. But then it’s a Kia.
What’s wrong with Kia?
Bad reliability history. They kinda turned it around in the 2010s, then the kiaboyz happened in the 2020s. I owned a Kia that was a potential target and it was so stressful owning one. I have to admit their EVs seem to be ok though. Also, I think they are one of the worst with data collection among car brands.

Kia has come a long way for reliability. Still cheap in some regard and maybe some dud engines/transmissions, but a lot better than years ago. You talking styling though?

EDIT: Ah I see you other comment about the theft. I think that was only a problem with the models that had key ignitions, no?

Yes, they had several years of models that had no immobilizers, because they wanted to save a couple of bucks. I have no issues with their styling at all, in fact I loved their quirky designs that I got a Kia Soul for that very reason. Too bad I had to let it go because no insurance company wanted to cover me, or if there was, it was insanely expensive for such a cheap car.
Those b-boy hamsters haha
