Kia Sorento 2015: Maximum towing weight clarification

...

A good report on the Kia Sorento but in the vital specifications I think a clarification on the tow weight is needed. Towing capacity is given as 2000kg but you should have noted it only has a towball loading of 100kg — which by Australian accepted standards of 10 per cent, means it can tow only 1000kg.

Towball downweight is an important consideration and it's something we'll consider more closely in future.
