The 2025 Kia Sorento X-Pro stands as the lineup's most capable trim, engineered specifically for drivers who demand off-road confidence and maximum towing capability. This isn't merely a trim package with cosmetic upgrades—the X-Pro includes distinct mechanical and design elements that separate it from standard Sorento models.
For Ontario families who prioritize outdoor adventures, the X-Pro delivers functional hardware designed to handle challenging terrain while maintaining the comfort and technology expected in a modern three-row SUV.
X-Pro Base Trim Features
The X-Pro builds upon the X-Line Limited foundation with leather seating, heated second-row seats, and a comprehensive suite of driver assistance technologies. The cabin includes LED interior lighting, wood grain centre facia accents, and premium audio system integration.
Standard X-Pro features include:
S Trim Specific Hardware
The X-Pro trim distinguishes itself through several mechanical upgrades designed specifically for enhanced off-road capability and maximum utility performance.
17-Inch X-Pro Exclusive Alloy Wheels The X-Pro features unique 17-inch alloy wheels designed with increased sidewall height for improved impact resistance on rough terrain. These wheels differ from the 20-inch wheels used on other turbo-equipped trims, prioritizing durability over visual impact.
All-Terrain Tire Configuration
Factory-mounted all-terrain tires provide enhanced traction on loose surfaces, gravel roads, and uneven terrain common around Ontario's recreational areas. The tire compound and tread pattern balance on-road comfort with off-road grip capability.
Enhanced Towing Integration The X-Pro achieves the Sorento's maximum 2,041 kg (4,500 lbs) towing capacity through calibrated cooling systems and reinforced mounting points. The increased capacity supports larger travel trailers, boat combinations, and equipment trailers that exceed the capabilities of lower trim levels.

Advanced Technology Integration
Beyond mechanical upgrades, the X-Pro includes technology specifically calibrated for adventure use. The full display digital electric chromic rear-view mirror provides enhanced visibility when towing large trailers or navigating challenging terrain where traditional mirrors might be obstructed.
The turbo 2.5L engine produces 281 hp and 311 lb-ft of torque, providing substantial power for both off-road climbing and highway towing scenarios. The all-wheel-drive system includes drive mode selections that adjust throttle response and traction management for different surface conditions.
Off-Road Capability Assessment
The X-Pro's ground clearance, approach angles, and departure angles accommodate moderate off-road use including:
The all-terrain tires and wheel configuration handle these scenarios while maintaining highway refinement for daily driving around Niagara Falls and the broader Ontario region.
Cargo and Utility Considerations
The X-Pro maintains the standard Sorento cargo dimensions: 2,139 litres behind the first row, 1,090-1,274 litres behind the second row, and 357 litres behind the third row. The enhanced towing capability allows utilization of this cargo space while simultaneously pulling substantial trailer loads.
The bridge-type roof rails accommodate additional cargo systems including rooftop carriers, kayak mounts, or bicycle racks without compromising the vehicle's aerodynamic efficiency.
