2011 Kia Sorento SX – Click above for high-res image gallery<\/small><\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n

\nKia<\/a> officially debuted the new SX trim level<\/a> for the 2011 Sorento<\/a> at this year’s Atlanta Auto Show, but they also brought the dolled-up crossover to New York<\/a> for a larger-scale unveiling. The Sorento is already off to a good start in the U.S. – it has already become Kia’s top-selling vehicle for the first few months of 2010 – and the SX, which goes on sale this Summer, offers up a bit more standard equipment and style to the lineup. The revised front fascia is a bit buffer than lesser trims and the ride height has been lowered by about one inch, giving it a more aggressive stance.<\/p>\n

Under the hood is Kia’s 3.5-liter V6, which produces 276 horsepower. Upgrades over the lesser LX and EX models include things like sharp 18-inch wheels and Dual Flow Damper shock absorbers. Inside, leather seats are standard, as is a back-up camera, Infinity audio system and voice-activated navigation. Look for Kia’s all-new UVO infotainment system<\/a> to debut in the Sorento later this year. Check out our galleries below to see the SX in high-res glory.<\/p>\n
