Additionally, the digital center mirror (DCM) is now available as an option on the lower Prestige and Noblesse trims, allowing for a more customized driving experience.
The Gravity trim, known for its design-focused enhancements, now includes exclusive door side garnishes and standard black suede interior materials. These updates are intended to underscore the Sorento’s luxurious appeal.
