    How is the Kia Sonet car?

    • Pros

      • 2023 update - RDE/BS6 Phase 2 compliant, diesel motor gets iMT gearbox, extra features
      • Refined motors/gearboxes - Peppy/smooth performance, good refinement, frugal
      • Easy to drive - Compact size, steering that's light with reasonable feedback
      • Good quality - Quality and fit/finish are on par with segment expectations
      • Boot capacity - Reasonably sized boot good for occupants to last seven days
    • Cons

      • Firm ride quality - Never feels settled, bounces at high speeds under full load
      • Rear seat space - The rear bench is a squeeze for anything more than two adults
      • Rear visibility - Is hampered by the chunky C-pillars and compact rear windscreen

    Kia Sonet 2023 Verdict

    The Kia Sonet packs a punch owing to the overall packaging. It includes the young looks, BS6 Phase 2 compliant powertrains, a new iMT gearbox for the diesel and a feature-loaded cabin.

    • Check me out won't be disappointed
      Buying experience is excellent Driving experience is fair engine performance is not what I expected with turbo charge engine and mileage is terrible Look wise it has an aggressive look quite happy with the look but the experience I have mentioned above After sell service is terrible here in Patna Bihar Pros Good vehicle if you are not a very enthusiastic driver it is a family car with imt version very easy to drive Cons Not value for money definitely expensive in this segment and after-sell service is poor.

      Good experience in driving. Comfort is also nice. City mileage is 12 km/l but they used to say 18 which is not true. Long drive it is very comfortable. Overall rating is Ok when compared to other cars.

    • Kia Sonet HTX 1.5 review
      Only buy if you have to buy a stylish car Otherwise, go with other brands for comfort Mostly if you have to drive on the hills Don't consider this car in your list because its shocker is more harder than big bubbles on the occasion, Buy if you are looking for stylish only but on the hilly roads, it's harassment for the people.
