The 2017 Sorento still offers a third-row seat, to bump its capacity from five up to seven if you so desire. The cabin of the 2017 Sorento has been quite dramatically tidied-up and made more sophisticated, with more soft-touch trims all around-wherever front occupants are expected to typically touch-and climate and navigation/audio controls are cordoned off into nice, neat control pods. Inside, the redesign is a lot easier to see at first glance. From the outside, the redesign is so evolutionary that it’s easy to let your mind fill in the lines-from all but the side, perhaps. The exterior melts right into the family-crossover tapestry, and that could be a positive or a negative depending on your own priorities.

In any event, to save money on gas and prevent straining your engine, follow the recommendations in the owner's manual. In those engines, using Premium fuel won't hurt anything, but it also won't improve anything, either. But most engines are designed to run on Regular all the time. These vehicles could sustain damage from prolonged use of Regular gasoline. In some cars, usually luxury models, Premium fuel is actually required, not just recommended. But the Jeep Renegade actually produced slightly less power when running on Premium. It made the biggest difference in the V8-powered Mustang GT, which generated 3.2% more power using Premium. On average, vehicles produced 1.4% more horsepower using Premium. The Ford Mustang GT gains some horsepower when running on "Premium" gas but the difference is slight.ĪAA also looked at horsepower output. But under extreme conditions, such as when towing a trailer or driving in extremely hot weather, using Regular could lead to damage.ĪAA also says that if you hear knocking or pinging sounds in your engine, consider that the sound of your car asking for the more expensive fuel. It will run just fine on Regular under most circumstances, he said.
Still, you might want to spring for Premium sometimes, said Bill Studzinski, a fuels expert with General Motors ( GM), the company that makes the Escalade. That means fuel savings are not enough to offset the cost difference between Regular and Premium gas.Īccording to AAA's test, it would cost about $300 more to run a Cadillac Escalade on Premium for a year, based on EPA fuel economy estimates and national average gas prices.
The results varied from a 7.1% improvement in the big Escalade SUV to a 1% decrease in fuel economy in the small Audi A3. On average, the vehicles got 2.7% better fuel economy when running Premium gas.
