Utility
Drivers with frequent kid-duty might favor the Hyundai Santa Fe over the Kia Sorento. Towing is significantly more the Kia's forte than it is the Hyundai Santa Fe's.

Convenience
You most certainly won't have to visit your friendly gas station more often with the Kia Sorento than with the Hyundai Santa Fe, because both offer comparable ranges.

Comfort
While the front cabin in the Santa Fe offers a bit more head room than the Kia, there really isn't much of a difference. While the rear of the Hyundai Santa Fe provides a bit more head- and leg-room than the Kia Sorento, there honestly isn't much of a difference.

Dimensions
The Kia Sorento is substantially more bulky than the Hyundai Santa Fe. The Hyundai Santa Fe's tank is almost the same size as the Kia's, though the Kia's is a tad larger. The Sorento and the Hyundai Santa Fe compete for the same parking spaces.

Handling
With their comparable turning circles, the Kia Sorento and the Hyundai Santa Fe definitely handle almost the same into and out of tight spots.

Drivetrain
The Kia Sorento's engine is substantially larger than the Hyundai's. Keep in mind that more sizeable engines may use more gas than smaller ones. Torque equals pickup, and the Kia Sorento will have picked up and gone by the time the Santa Fe finally gets moving.

Warranty
The Hyundai Santa Fe and the Kia Sorento have the same basic after-sale protection.
