    Feature rich 

    The quality is finishing is very impressive in Kia Sonet and is a great package compact SUV. The interior look very nice and is a feature rich compact SUV and the safety features are superb. Both the rows are very comfortable and with my turbo petrol DCT engine the performance is very strong and the driving experience is very good. The body control is predictable and is easy to drive in the city but the ride quality is firm. It comes with the feature packed interior and the engine is refined but the second row is not comfortable for three passangers.

    Compact and average car 

    The Sonet is a head-turner for sure. It's got a sporty design. You can choose from colors to match your vibe. It have plenty of legroom and headroom. The seats are comfortable for long drives. In the back, it might feel a little cramped for three adults. The Sonet comes in three engine options: a 1.2L petrol for good mileage, a 1.0L turbo-petrol for more power, and a 1.5L diesel for strong torque.

    Premium and Spacious car 

    As the owner of Kia Sonet whose all expectations have been met by this compact SUV, I can honestly affirm this. Its design, as a tiger nose grille is iconic Kia and sleek lines are really eye catching. The engine of my Sonet is loaded with a turbocharged petrol, that gives an incredible performance. Sonet’s spacious interior and premium features gives the best balance of comfort and convenience. From the user-friendly touchscreen display to the cutting-edge safety components that make me feel confident while driving.
