Kia Sonet 2020-2024

  • Looks curvy and powerful. Lots of variants to choose from and proper automatics too. Like the Seltos the interiors don't disappoint. New update brings four airbags and TPMS as standard. Six airbags are now available on more models too. Some premium features and transmissions have also trickled down to lower variants.

Maruti Dzire

  • Plenty of features
  • refined Petrol engine with high efficiency
  • interior space
  • ride quality for city roads

Kia Sonet 2020-2024

  • Not enough width for three adults. No cooled glove box or adjustable front arm rest.

Maruti Dzire

  • interior plastic quality is average

Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Is buying Maruti Dzire Vxi better or Kia Sonet HTE?
  • If you are on a restricted budget then you would be better off with the Maruti Dzire compared to the Kia Sonet. The sedan offers a comfortable ride quality, fuel efficient engine and premium interiors. However, if you are eyeing for the sub-4 meter SUV with rich features, multiple powertrain options to chose from and a spacious cabin, then we'd suggest you to go for the Sonet. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.Read More: - 2020 Maruti Suzuki Dzire Facelift Launched: 5 Things You Should Know - Here’s What You’ll Get In Each Kia Sonet Variant
  • Better to buy MARUTI DZIRE
Q. Sonet petrol AT Vs DCT, please advise which one more effective in terms of performance and hassalfree?
  • Traditional Automatic Transmission(AT), also known as a torque-converter, this automatic transmission is one of the most common types of gearboxes that can be found on budget as well as expensive luxury cars. Instead of a clutch this gearbox uses a torque converter to spool up the power and it also has smooth and relatively quick gearshifts. The application for this gearbox is quite widespread. On the other hand, A dual-clutch transmission(DCT) uses two separate shafts with their own clutches for gear shifts: one shaft for odd-numbered gears and the other for even-numbered gears. This type of automatic transmission is purely a performance-oriented transmission that also delivers good fuel efficiency but comes at a penalty of higher manufacturing cost. If a problem arises they are also expensive to maintain. In case of Sonet, DCT is available with a turbocharged petrol engine and AT is available with a naturally aspirated Diesel Engine. The Sonet’s 7-speed DCT doesn’t particularly shine. It simply gets the job done. You’d be underwhelmed if you compared it to say Volkswagen’s DSG. That said, you would appreciate that the shifts are super smooth, and it’s rare that the gearbox gets confused or selects the wrong gear. You get a manual mode in case you want sprightlier acceleration, but there are no paddle shifters on offer. If your daily car usage is less and want a fun to drive car, you may go for Sonet DCT. The Sonet is currently the only vehicle to offer a proper torque converter paired with a diesel motor in a segment that offers just AMTs. As a bonus, you also get the Seltos’ engine tune with an additional 15PS of power and 10Nm. This drivetrain is best appreciated on long highway trips, where you’d want to cover over 500km a day. The smooth (but slightly slow) shifts from the automatic will keep fatigue at bay, while the diesel engine will ensure the wallet is happy by being frugal. For city usage, it feels responsive thanks to all that torque the engine has to offer. Do take a test ride in order to get better clarity. Check out authorised dealership details.
Q. Which is best variant(petrol) in Kia Sonet to buy?
  • If you are on a budget, looking for a practical car for your family and like calm driving, you may go for 1.2 HTK variant. If you often travel on highways too you may opt for HTK Plus Turbo iMT. If you are looking for a fun to drive car, you may go for HTK Plus Turbo DCT. If Budget is not an issue and want a feature loaded car with great performance you may go for GTX Plus Turbo iMT. You may compare all its variants accordingly. Do take a test ride in order to get better clarity. Check out authorised dealership details.
  • I will suggest HTX 1 L turbo petrol variant as it is budget friendly with high amount of exciting features . its on road price is 11.20 lalks.
  • The best variant of the Kia Sonet to buy depends on your specific needs, preferences, and budget. Each variant of the Kia Sonet offers different features and equipment levels.

    Excellent Car 

    It sounds like you have an excellent fully loaded GTX+ diesel manual car that adds a fun element to driving, especially in tight spaces in metro areas. Additionally, its performance remains equally impressive and comfortable on highways. If you have more details or features to highlight, it could make your vehicle even more appealing to potential buyers. Happy driving!

    The car has excellent dynamics and rides really well.The quality of parts used is of a high order especially the dashboard and the plastics surrounding it.Thr 1.0 litre turbo petrol engine is an absolute joy to drive and the 7 dct gearbox makes it even more drivable.All in all a great car for those looking to buy a mid size car in comparison to the nexon and the brezza.Only complaint is the space insider the car which is good enough for an.Average individual and seating for 2 at the rear instead of three.

    Amazing Car 

    The car consistently delivers a mileage of 21 kmpl under varying driving conditions, including city driving with the AC on. On highways, it provides a minimum of 23 kmpl when cruising above 90 kmph. The maintenance costs are minimal; for example, my 20,000 km service only cost me 2000 rupees. It's a fantastic car with no issues whatsoever. Its power is sufficient for overtaking and maintaining speeds on highways, while also offering comfortable driving in city traffic. I have no plans to sell this car for at least the next 10 years!
