LED headlights on the 2019 Kia Sorento are not universal; they appear on higher trims or specific packages, while base models use traditional halogen headlights. Market variations apply.
What to know about headlight options for 2019 Sorento
The 2019 Sorento's headlight configuration varied by trim level, and across markets (U.S., Canada, Europe, etc.). Here is a general guide based on common US-market configurations for that model year.
Headlight setup by trim (typical US-market configurations):
- LX: Halogen headlights are standard; LED headlights are not standard on this base trim, though LED daytime running lights may be present on some builds.
- EX: Projector-style headlights with LED daytime running lights; LED main headlights are not universally standard but may be included on certain packages.
- SX: Projector headlights with LED elements; in many packages LED headlights are available, and some models may have LED main headlights.
- SX Limited: LED headlights are common as standard equipment in many markets; higher-end trims often feature LED main headlights plus DRLs.
Note: The exact setup depends on the market and the specific build sheet. If LED headlights matter, verify with the dealer or consult the window sticker for the model you are considering.
Other lighting features worth knowing
In addition to headlights, 2019 Sorento models commonly included LED daytime running lights on higher trims, and LED taillights on certain variants. Fog lights, if equipped, are typically LED on higher-trim models as part of a lighting package.
Bottom line
LED headlights were available on certain 2019 Sorento trims and packages, but not on the base LX in many markets. To confirm for a specific vehicle, check the VIN, window sticker, or ask the dealer.
Summary
The 2019 Kia Sorento does offer LED headlights, but primarily on higher trims (and in certain markets or packages). If you’re shopping for LED headlights, target EX with the LED package or SX/SX Limited trims, and verify with documentation.
