The car, now known as a crossover utility vehicle (CUV) is longer and lower than the outgoing model, and is expected to go on sale in Europe next year.
The 2.2 diesel which is likely to be the only engine offered here emits 173 g/km.
The body-on-frame structure of the original has been abandoned and the new car has an all-new unitary (monocoque) bodyshell with room for up to seven occupants.
The new Sorento bodyshell is designed to achieve the top-score 5-Star rating in Europe’s EuroNCAP.
