Choose a Kia AWD SUV for your daily routine
A smaller SUV can make everyday parking easier, while a three-row model gives you more flexibility for passengers. For Bloomington-Normal drivers, the right starting point is how you use your vehicle throughout the year: commuting, school drop-offs, errands, or longer trips through Central Illinois.
Kia Seltos
Consider the Seltos if you want a compact SUV with two rows of seating and available AWD. Its smaller footprint makes it a practical model to compare for everyday trips around Bloomington and Normal. Confirm the drivetrain on your preferred trim, since equipment can differ between model years. Explore Kia Seltos models
Kia Sportage
The Sportage offers two-row SUV space with available AWD. It is a useful next step if you want room for passengers and everyday cargo without moving to a three-row vehicle. Compare gas and hybrid configurations to find the combination of drivetrain and powertrain that fits your routine. Explore Kia Sportage models
Kia Sorento
The Sorento adds a third row and offers AWD on select configurations. It is worth comparing if you sometimes need extra passenger seating but also want flexibility for cargo. Bring along the car seats or gear you use most often so you can see how the seating arrangement works for your household. Explore Kia Sorento models
Kia Telluride
The Telluride offers three-row seating and available AWD for drivers shopping for a larger family SUV. Compare second-row layouts and third-row access in person, then check how much cargo space remains with the seats in the positions you’ll use most. Explore Kia Telluride models
Hybrid and electric AWD choices
AWD is also offered on select electrified Kia SUVs. Depending on the model year and trim, options include Sportage Hybrid, Sorento Hybrid, plug-in hybrid SUVs, and electric models such as EV6 and EV9. Conventional hybrids do not need to be plugged in. Plug-in hybrids can be charged externally, while fully electric SUVs rely on charging. Compare your driving routine and access to charging before choosing a powertrain.
AWD for Central Illinois driving
All-wheel drive can help distribute power to the wheels for traction when accelerating on slippery surfaces. It does not eliminate the need for suitable tires or careful driving, and it does not guarantee shorter stopping distances. For winter driving around Bloomington-Normal, consider tire condition, visibility, and maintenance alongside the drivetrain. Visit our Kia service center
