Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which one is best Hector or Seltos and what is the global crash test star rating for both cars?
  • You know the Owner is not Chinese, but it is actually a subsidiary of Govt. of China. Just like Hindustan Motors was. Also Chinese cars are not very respected in China. Ford motors is making cars in China that are selling very well and preferred over Chinese cars. We can talk again when brand is atleast 5 years old in India. Kia and Hyundai have been successful at what they do for decades now. You know there are Kia/Hyundai cars sold in USA. but No Chinese brands dare to operate in USA.
  • Having owned one I can confidently say MG Hector is an excellent car and it's better in most aspects in its segment. The look and feel is like cars one segment above. One thing to note is the fact that MG is an old British brand which still remains however now owned by one of the biggest Chinese companies, times are changing. Imagine Jaguar or Land Rover, owned by Tata but its still not an Indian car right?
  • I don't know about MG but Kia I heard that Kia was have a bad engine on UAE the old one but I don't know about new engine

    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.

  • Sonet
    Compact and average car 

    I recently drove the Kia Sonet , impressed by its sleek style and comfortable interiors. However, its mileage fell short of expectations; while the company claims 15 km/l, I managed 12 km/l in the city and 14 km/l on the highway. The compact SUV's performance was satisfactory, though not exceptional. Its manual transmission and all-wheel drive add versatility, but the lack of memory seats and sunroof may disappoint some. Overall, the Kia Sonet is a decent choice for urban commuters, with room for improvement in fuel efficiency and luxury features.

    Kia Sonet: Compact Yet Spacious 

    Since I bought the Kia Sonet, it has been nothing short of a rollercoaster. On the plus side this compact SUV is surprisingly roomy. It manages to fit five adults comfortably and the 392 litre boot space easily handles our weekend getaways. The 1.5 liter diesel engine with the manual transmission is my pick providing enough torque for city drives and economical fuel consumption at about 25 kmpl.The Sonet also scores high on looks with its bold design and the signature tiger nose grille making heads turn. Tech wise it is packed with features, including a 10.25 inch touchscreen, ventilated front seats and a six speaker sound system.

    when style meets class 

    Assuring with a promising performance of the kia sonet which is not only smart in looks but also extraordinary in functionalities. It has been more than six months approximately since I bought this car. All i can say is that it has been built differently and the exterior design steals the attention on the road. The seat is very soft and comfortable. It has a very powerful motor that brings out the actual potential of this car. I have never faced jerks or vibrations while driving it. It has always been smooth throughout.
