Know before you choose
HTE and HTE (O) are seven-seat only. From HTK, six-seat captain chairs cost ₹20,000 more than the equivalent seven-seat offer; losing the middle seat is a layout choice, not an automatic upgrade for every family.
HTX introduces AWD, ten airbags, rear ventilation, the digital mirror, HUD and remote parking. HTX without (A) still has conventional cruise and no driving-ADAS package. HTK's blind-view camera alone does not establish radar warnings or rear cross-traffic assistance.
The (A) package is ₹1 lakh above the equivalent HTK/HTX offer. HTK (A) lists 21 assistance functions; HTX (A) lists 30. The driver remains responsible; feature counts do not make the car autonomous.

Sorento delivery checklist
A quick pre-delivery inspection (PDI) before you accept your car.
✓Match the VIN, Sorento variant, powertrain and paint on the vehicle against your order and invoice before accepting delivery.
✓Inspect the clean car in daylight: paint, panels, glass, tyres, lights, seats and every promised accessory. Photograph concerns and get a written resolution.
✓Ask the dealer to demonstrate a normal start, dashboard warning-light self-check, air conditioning, keys and the controls fitted to your variant.
