Front wipers are 26 inches on the driver’s side and 18 inches on the passenger side, with a 12-inch rear blade.
Front wiper sizes
To replace a Sorento’s front blades, these are the standard lengths most owners need for the 2016 model. Depending on regional market or trim, sizes can vary slightly, so it's wise to double-check in the owner's manual or on the blade packaging before buying.
- Driver-side blade: 26 inches
- Passenger-side blade: 18 inches
When replacing both blades, many people opt for a matched pair in these sizes or a Sorento-specific blade kit to ensure consistent performance and even wear.
Rear wiper size
The Sorento’s rear window uses a single blade, typically 12 inches, on 2016 models. Always confirm with the manual or the packaging if you’re unsure about your vehicle’s specific trim or regional variation.
- Rear blade: 12 inches
Rear blades are often shorter and simpler to replace; ensure you select the correct hook type (often a standard J-hook or pin attachment) when ordering.
Summary
For a 2016 Kia Sorento, expect front blades of 26 inches (driver) and 18 inches (passenger), plus a 12-inch rear blade. If in doubt, verify with the vehicle’s manual or the blade packaging, as regional or trim differences can occur. Regular checks help ensure clear visibility in all weather.
