    when style meets class 

    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.

    Sonet dynamism 

    The Kia Sone­t is an affordable car. It costs less than other similar cars. The­ Sonet is good on gas and has a nice interior with lots of fe­atures. But some parts don't fee­l very sturdy. And it can be a bumpy ride on rough roads. Still, the­ Sonet is a great value ove­rall. It is perfect for driving around town. I have drive­n the Sonet for some time­ now. And I think it is quite impressive for the­ price.

    Big Personality 

    The Kia Sone­t is a compact SUV. I have driven it for some time­. It has many features at a low price. The­ design looks stylish. The inside is comfortable­. It costs less than other SUVs like it. This make­s it a good value. But the back seats are­ a bit small. The engine ge­ts noisy when driving fast. Overall, the Kia Sone­t is a great choice. It is reliable­ and affordable for a small SUV.

    A Compact Powerhouse with Room for Improvement 

    After months of anticipation, I finally got my hands on the Kia Sonet. Right off the bat the 1.0 Turbo GDi engine with 120 PS power and a 7 speed DCT gives the Sonet a peppy and responsive feel on Indian roads makes city commutes and highway cruising a breeze. The compact SUV stance paired with an impressive ground clearance of 205 mm handles potholes and rough terrains easily making it a perfect companion. The interiors are plush with a 10.25 inch HD touchscreen taking center stage with features like UVO connect makes my tech savvy heart skip a beat.

    go far from the city 

    Kia Sonet is a family-friendly car model and is my favourite. It is an affordable car and has a good seating capacity that is also very comfortable for the passengers. It has manual transmission and good mileagel. The price range is very affordable and promises a great performance. The maintenance is quite manageable and service cost is average. I have had one of my best driving experiences with this car model. And i would recommend this to all.

    discover your strength of a tigress 

    Discussing about the absolute best in the segment of cars, the Tata Safari is a perfect fit. From exterior designs to inner qualities, from loaded features to the functions of the bike and from generating power to the affordability of the car, it is indeed an all-rounder and the absolute best in the segment. The powerful engine is the reason behind this model giving the best performance than any other models. The exterior look is my favourite that is glossy and shiny with metallic paint.

    Living with the Tata Safari 

    A Family Experience Six months ago I decided the Tata Safari would be our next family car drawn in by its appealing promise of space and power. The Safari with its 2.0 liter turbocharged Diesel engine delivering 170 PS power and 350 Nm of torque does not disappoint. It is energetic and responsive which makes it fun to drive. I get about 12-13 kmpl on city roads which is decent but a bit lower than some competitors.The Tata Safari combines power space and a bit of luxury making it a solid choice for anyone looking for a large family vehicle.

    Luxe Drive with a Pinch of Salt 

    Owning a Tata Safari has mostly been a regal experience. It is spacious, comfortable and the 170 PS engine does not shy away from delivering power when you need it. The panoramic sunroof is a hit among my family providing an airy feel even on the busiest days. Though Tata has worked hard to position the Safari as a premium SUV there are areas where it falls short. Fuel efficiency is another area where I feel it could have been better currently standing around 14-16 kmpl.

    making the journeys beautiful 

    Stating about Tata Safari is something that excites me a lot. It is so unique and differently built, that it ofcourse stands apart from the rest models. It is considered the top model among all others by the tata company. It is a unique car. Convenience is quite good, ground clearance is perfect and so is the affordable price. It is a seven seater car and has 5 doors. It is well equipped with the latest technology.
