The Kia Sorento's seating capacity changes depending on the model year, so the answer to your question is that it varies. From 2003 to 2009, the vehicle could seat up to 5 passengers, as there was no third-row option. Between 2011 and 2013, a third-row seat could be added, allowing for a maximum capacity of either 5 or 7 occupants. In 2014, the Sorento could accommodate only 5 people. From 2015 to 2018, the third-row seat option returned. In the latest models from 2019 onward, the third row is standard, and models without it are unavailable. In summary, whether your Sorento has a third-row seat depends on the model year.
It is not feasible to install an additional third row in a Kia Sorento once it has been bought.
