Really enjoyed this review. Fun to watch. All the info you want with the context you need. Really a great review, the best I've seen in a long, long time.
I think this was her best review, so far. she was able to be engaging without being over the top. She's not as cliche as Ross Rapoport and has more of a personality as well. I hope they keep her....
the laundry basket test or whatever real life cargo test is a MUST for CUVs/SUVs and minivans. the specified dimensions from manufacturers really don't tell the full story. i like the beer keg test myself.
amazing nice detailed review without boring the crap out of the audience also appreciate the fact that you didn't pretend to know stuff when you don't. looking forward for more review by you Amy. 🖒
This lady is awesome she should do all roadfly reviews from now on. She is so Normal unlike some people who act and talk and move as if they have a stick up the bum. Good choice of information to provide as well
Love you Emme -- good job. I have told my sister about you because she's the one who purchased the Kia Sorento. She had the Soul before the Sorento, which she really loved. But it was to small for her. She up-graded and now all is well!
Great video and clear description of the car features; fine review from Emme. I was hoping for future test, a comparison between popular midsize/compact suv's w/ similar warranties (i.e. Misubishi Outlander, Sorento GDI I4, & Santa Fe).
Basically, an air mattress is gonna come exploding out of the side here, which is gonna be very convenient when you're laying on the side of the road recuperating and waiting for help to come. Best. Line. Ever.
Always refreshing to see female car reviewers who know what they're talking about and like cars. She did a great job. Most female reviewers are like "well it's comfy, and when I push that thing on the ground it goes!"
Emme i have a wife and 2 kids. I drive a Quest right and am looking to maybe change vehicles soon. Does this Sorrento have a sporty ride and drive characteristics or should i lean more towards the SV or LE Murano?
Hey, Charlie, legend has it, probably the better part of a year ago, Hyundai was considering either shutting down or selling Kia Motors some time in 2011. I'm assuming they're not because of vehicles like this one -- plus the fact that they just opened a new factory not too long ago. How much of this rumor is true??
For a very similar vehicle I think I'd buy the 2011 Hyundai Santa Fe. I just like the look of it better. I know it's pretty much the same as the Sorento as well.
Hello Em, Kudo's is right to Hyundai and Kia showing all other car companies how it's done. Who would of thought? I loved your Video as always. I know you said your test mule cost around $36,000. As I guessed $27,000 cause of the name tag stigma. But after researching the car at Edmunds.com I saw the vehicle starts at under 20K That's amazing. And I just wished you would of mentioned that tiny tid bit. That's a whole lot of Vehicle for under $20,000 and Nicely equipped for under $30 with V-6
@TripleXXX8700 "Top Gear is entertainment, not a review show"?! I decided not to buy a Tesla specifically because of the battery issues brought up in Top Gear's review. As Clarkson warned, the repair bills for my Veyron could fund several third world countries, but the luxury and power are more than worth it. And as soon as an FXX appears on eBay, I'm jumping on it, based on their test track results. Entertainment indeed! Now lighten up Triple Triple X 8700.
@TripleXXX8700 Dude, you need to turn that frown upside down. Maybe for the next review Emme can just read the window sticker in a dull monotone. So, Triple XXX is, like, nine X's. Seems like overkill to me.
@45barber1 Well I drove this car and I have to say I was delighted. Absolutely no complaints. But if you have money go for Grand Cheroke any day. In my opinion it feels little more superior (ofcourse more price). The guy was quoting me 28K for a sticker price of 34 K with all kind of stuff (infinity audio, chrome wheels, lcd/nav, V6, rear seat entertainment system etc etc). So pretty good deal. It just boils down to personal preference. I am 100% sure this car is great with great warranty.
so, if i'm between a Ford Edge limited and this Kia Sorento, which one should i pick? in my opinion the Edge looks better, but not everything is about good looking...someone pls tell me some advices :)
im ifey ifey on kia......I fell in love with the look of the Forte but when I got in it I hated it instantly because it was cramped and very cheap and plasticly......but when I got into the Soul I still loved it......it was just as I though and more.......the Surento is a great vehicle but for a little less I can get a basic version of a truck......I want the Kia Soul to bad I got a Pontiac instead because it was cheaper.
Emma.....love.......I like you, (I really do), and I hope that you do a lot more reviews. You seem to have opinions that can be backed up with facts!! (On the internet that's amazing.) But PLEASE retire the "Holla". Even we (we black people that is) have stopped using "holla" for at least the last 2-3 years. The only people that use "holla" are the church pastors, and FOX "news" anchors when their making a crack about "culture wars".
@flexor212000 they are actually pretty realiable my mom has a 2007 kia sportage with almost 80,000 miles and we never had a problem with it. We have had more problems with my dad's 2008 ford focus
WOW! amazing review and a female reviewer seemed like a joke to me in the beginning of the video but at the end I was proven wrong! great car and amazing review!
@Boodieman72 The basket thing is just her practical way of measuring of how much crap you get into the boot, it's kinda logical, the boot can have like lots of capacity but it may be a crap in terms of how practical it is (i.e. too wide and short or vice versa). And she just likes sunroofs, who doesn't? If you don't like her then don't watch her, geez
This is one of the best car reviews ever! Especially for something like a midsize SUV.
Good job Emme!
Really enjoyed this review. Fun to watch. All the info you want with the context you need. Really a great review, the best I've seen in a long, long time.
I love your reviews! Smart comments, and lots of info, while being enjoyable to listen to. Nice work.
Very professionally made video!
Emmie, always entertaining. I keep finding myself watching reviews on cars that I couldn't care less about then. Keep up the good work.
Awesome review! Emme was very concise and informative on the vehicle.

When Emma and Ross have children those kids will grow up to be the best car reviewers ever!
Love you Emme -- good job. I have told my sister about you because she's the one who purchased the Kia Sorento. She had the Soul before the Sorento, which she really loved. But it was to small for her. She up-graded and now all is well!
She upgrade? Which model?
Thats right. The Sorento is built right here in West point, Georgia. My neighbor actually works in the Kia plant!
Betcha my sister is kicking herself now for rushing into a mini-van. Great review, Emze!
She is the best presenter! MORE EMME!
Great review!
Kia continues to kick ass! Gotta give respect where respect is due ... now on to the Kia Sportage review by Roadfly ...
Great video and clear description of the car features; fine review from Emme. I was hoping for future test, a comparison between popular midsize/compact suv's w/ similar warranties (i.e. Misubishi Outlander, Sorento GDI I4, & Santa Fe).
"IKEA in this KIA" LOL
how so naturally she is doing all the things......very gud presenter she is really
Cool review - I love your reviewing style!!!
I love your style very funny and refreshing. Hurrah.
Nice job, Emme!
Just bought a Sorento over the weekend. Hoping for good things.
Have a LX 2.4 L
Updates? I'm seeing one on FB Market $2300 at 200,000 miles. High miles but if its been maintained very well it might be worth it.
Basically, an air mattress is gonna come exploding out of the side here, which is gonna be very convenient when you're laying on the side of the road recuperating and waiting for help to come. Best. Line. Ever.
Nice review, sticking here
Always refreshing to see female car reviewers who know what they're talking about and like cars. She did a great job. Most female reviewers are like "well it's comfy, and when I push that thing on the ground it goes!"
Funny how I disliked her "holla" at the start but now I think it's totally awesome :-)
I like Emme's videos
Emme i have a wife and 2 kids. I drive a Quest right and am looking to maybe change vehicles soon. Does this Sorrento have a sporty ride and drive characteristics or should i lean more towards the SV or LE Murano?
"In the good ol' U S of A!" Great review Emme!
ohh you did a great job i love it and you had most iportent information which customer need all the time and ask thank you
Emme good vids keep em coming!
Emme rocks
Excellent Review!
Emme loves Kia's and Hyundai's. Ross loves Acura's and Honda's I'm with Ross but Emme is hilarious!
Try the Diesel 2.2 R one , very economical and torque ..... you never want a petrol one !
very helpful review!!
Great review!
OMG, this lady is FUCKING Bad ASS. I can watch her reviews all day.
Nice job, Emme Hall-AH!!!
thanks for the review.
Hey, Charlie, legend has it, probably the better part of a year ago, Hyundai was considering either shutting down or selling Kia Motors some time in 2011.

Good review...at first I thought she was crazy but I'm beginning to like her style XD
@mountain885 Actually the base model starts at 21K. This one shown in video is fully loaded top end model
Very nice review, and she`s both funny and objective! More, please.
Excellent Review! "Holla"! :)
Why people dislike her? She's funny
thanks. im going for something else with softer suspension
Hi Emme im in a doubt between buying a crv 2012 exl or a sorento EX for mum what would you recommend? Cheers
The diesel is not available in the US, which is sad.
Bet that wasn't the first time you were in the back of a Kia.. :) Good Review!!
@AlternativeUses yeah but those back seats don't *really* count because you can't actually fit anybody back there!
I wonder why Kia didn't use their 2.0L Turbo engine, which has almost as much HP but more torque? Not complaining, the Sorento is nice!!
For a very similar vehicle I think I'd buy the 2011 Hyundai Santa Fe. I just like the look of it better. I know it's pretty much the same as the Sorento as well.
Emme you rock ! Love you in the outfit & awesome review ! ^_^
@bottomlayer maybe they appeal for the kids of a family?? eitherway, i agree, i'd get the sportage turbo if i were going for a kia crossover
Uh, hello? 1776 called, George Washington wants his coat back! lol!
Great review, looks like Kia is coming out with some stylish designs these days.
I see Emme is in love with sunrooves (if thats the proper plural term for sunroofs) :-)
Hello Em,

That jacket is sooo cool! Forget the car! :D
Should it be different if it is sold in another country?
does the 3rd row fold down together or does if fold down seat by seat?
@TripleXXX8700

Entertainment indeed!
Now lighten up Triple Triple X 8700.
Hey, what's up with "ADAM ANT" motif? :)
@yummy1234098 She said she didn't like the sport mode because it hesitates. That's fairly negative.
Shes got personality!
planned that "ikea in kia"
@TripleXXX8700
Dude, you need to turn that frown upside down. Maybe for the next review Emme can just read the window sticker in a dull monotone.
So, Triple XXX is, like, nine X's. Seems like overkill to me.
the reviewer is quite tall huh? the sorento looked like a compact suv right next to her.

I'm already watching an advertisement, why make me sit thru another one. BOO!
so, if i'm between a Ford Edge limited and this Kia Sorento, which one should i pick?
in my opinion the Edge looks better, but not everything is about good looking...someone pls tell me some advices :)
Are those LED tail lights???
whys this one look like it has a bodykit yet the others dont
Why buy this over the new turbo Sportage?
This woman is awesome.
Nice vid n car= :)
just wait 'til she reviews the porsche targas
I LOVE her!
pinched bowtie??? I thought it was called Tiger Nose........haha
THE BRITISH ARE COMING!!
Emme, you are a funny gal, good review. The car is a bit pricey though. Never thought a Kia would cost $36k.
@rx7guy21
I had no idea why you got so many thumbs up for saying "The british are coming" until I started watching the video o0
she looks like a muscle car enthusiast
@countach27 people criticize because they just want to criticize, yes i admit she wears weirdo stuff but shes funny and good
I want an SX Ver. Of a sorento
my scion xb is a smaller car and it has 70 cubic ft with the back seat folds down.
im ifey ifey on kia......I fell in love with the look of the Forte but when I got in it I hated it instantly because it was cramped and very cheap and plasticly......but when I got into the Soul I still loved it......it was just as I though and more.......the Surento is a great vehicle but for a little less I can get a basic version of a truck......I want the Kia Soul to bad I got a Pontiac instead because it was cheaper.
Kudos for this car - Made by American auto workers! But a third row in a crossover is like tits on a bull.
@yummy1234098 Yeah I agree. It's all unicorns and rainbows. Oh, and "hallas"...
Emma.....love.......I like you, (I really do), and I hope that you do a lot more reviews. You seem to have opinions that can be backed up with facts!! (On the internet that's amazing.) But PLEASE retire the "Holla". Even we (we black people that is) have stopped using "holla" for at least the last 2-3 years.

@flexor212000 they are actually pretty realiable my mom has a 2007 kia sportage with almost 80,000 miles and we never had a problem with it. We have had more problems with my dad's 2008 ford focus
I drove one of those smooth ...
This or grand cherokee?
WOW! amazing review and a female reviewer seemed like a joke to me in the beginning of the video but at the end I was proven wrong!
great car and amazing review!
0-60 in 7 seconds wow O.O
why is everybody calling her Emma?
Who would actually want do "sporty" driving in this? I hate it when manufacturer use the sport button as an after thought.
@Boodieman72 The basket thing is just her practical way of measuring of how much crap you get into the boot, it's kinda logical, the boot can have like lots of capacity but it may be a crap in terms of how practical it is (i.e. too wide and short or vice versa). And she just likes sunroofs, who doesn't? If you don't like her then don't watch her, geez
is she fighting the redcoats?
