There could be several reasons for decreased acceleration in your Kia Sorento. It could be due to a clogged air filter, dirty fuel injector, or even low transmission fluid. It's best to get your vehicle checked by a certified mechanic to diagnose the exact issue.

Based on my experience, one possible cause for decreased acceleration in a Kia Sorento is a faulty spark plug. Over time, spark plugs can wear out and cause your engine to misfire, resulting in decreased acceleration. I recommend replacing your spark plugs every 30,000 miles.

I had a similar issue with my Kia Sorento and it turned out to be a failing fuel pump. This can cause a decrease in fuel pressure, which leads to decreased acceleration. If your fuel pump is indeed the culprit, it's important to replace it as soon as possible to avoid further damage to your engine.
