    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.

    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.

    Important factor 

    Driving experience is the important factor in my concern.Obviously, I'm very much satisfied with this machine.The control over the turns, Less body roll, Engine refinement, Stability etc.Are quite impressive.I'm using the base model of this vehicle.The base model itself the company provides the tilt and reach adjustable steering wheel, Body colored with side view mirror, Body colored bumper.Vehicle is stable at high speeds.I'm getting an average of 18.3 kmpl of mileage in city driving and 22.5 kmpl in long range use.And a tyre mileage of 20000km.The fuel tank is about 55 litres so long distance coverage is compromised.Safety is the most important thing in vw cars.From base model itself the car provides two airbags, Abs and ebd are standard.High quality metals are used for body building.Pros:.Good driving comfort.Good mileage.Good build quality.Low maintenancecons:.Service cost is high.

    I drive a 2018 Volkswagen 

    I drive a 2018 volkswagen ameo highline dct tdi.This is truly the most underrated compact sedan ever in india.So less people bought it because it was quite expensive for the top end model with dct in 2018 at rs.12.30 lakhs.And people in india were happier buying so called “big cars” from indian manufacturers at this price range.The car runs on diesel, Churns out 110 bhp and 250 nm of torque.It weighs 1500 kgs.The 4 cylinder engineer paired with turbo and dct(german dsg) is a super powerful mean machine.I have reached top speeds of 200 kmph in this car.It’s accelerates like a jet engine.Reaches 0-100 kmph in less than 9 seconds.There’s not a single car i have not overtook on bangalore-mangalore highway on this car.It’s a shame the diesel car was discontinued by volkswagen.It’s 5 year old now and still my most prized possession! love you volkswagen ameo(amigo!) 🙂.
