The Kia Sorento is available in nine variants with 6- and 7-seater layouts, two powertrain options, and a wide spread of features across the HTE, HTK, and HTX trims.

Skoda India is hiking prices across all models by up to Rs. 20,000 from October 1, 2026. The Slavia facelift's prices are due on October 6, and a second Octavia RS batch has been released at Rs. 56.69 lakh.
