Dare to Compare: 2021 Chevrolet Blazer vs. Kia Sorento
You’re looking at a 2021 Kia Sorento? Hey, you do know that there are other, better options out there, right? Trust your boys at Carter Chevrolet — if you’re looking to go bold with your next midsize SUV, you’ve gotta get with the 2021 Chevrolet Blazer. Here’s why.
The Price Is Right
You like saving money, right? Think of everything you could do with $500 in cold hard cash. Think of all the fried chicken you could buy! The 2021 Chevrolet Blazer starts about five bills cheaper than the Sorento, so it’s just the smarter choice. Because saving money is smart.
More Power And Better Choices
Kia offers two engines for the Sorento: a 191-horsepower 2.5-liter four-cylinder and a 2.5-liter Turbo that puts down 281 horsepower. That’s cool and all, but Chevrolet gives you three engine choices with the Blazer. And if that’s not enough, you get more power, too.
The standard 2.5-liter EcoTec for the Blazer L and 1LT puts down 193 horsepower and 188 lb-ft of torque, topping the Sorento. Standard on the Blazer RS (and available on the 2LT, 3LT, and Premier) is a 3.6-liter V6 that puts down 308 horsepower. Kia doesn’t have a V6. Kia, are you even trying?
A Killer Look
We’re not going to say that the Kia Sorento isn’t handsome, because we’re positive people at Carter Chevrolet. But we feel comfortable saying that the 2021 Chevrolet Blazer looks a ton better. It’s fierce, ferocious, unique, and sporty as all get out. The Blazer is a bona fide head-turner, and the Sorento just sort of blends into a sea of samey SUVs.
Take your eyes off the Sorento and lay them on a real prize: the 2021 Chevrolet Blazer. You’ll find it where else but Carter Chevrolet in Okarche, Oklahoma.
