Q. How is the preformance of Kia Sonet?

Kia is offering the Sonet with a choice of two petrol engines and one diesel. The 1.5-litre diesel is offered in two states of tune: 100PS/240Nm when combined with the 6-speed manual or the Seltos-spec 115PS/250Nm when combined with the 6-speed torque converter. The diesel-auto would make for a great companion as a daily driver or for a long journey. That’s because the torque makes upping the pace a breezy affair, be it at city speeds or on the highway. The smooth and unhurried shifts of the gearbox deliver a sense of premiumness, but for highway stints, you do wish it was a touch faster. And as for the petrol turbo engine here is no head-nod as the system juggles the speed and force of clutch engagement, and the engine revs to give you superb shifts. For everyday driving, the iMT could deliver a better driving experience at a fraction of the cost. Read more:- Kia Sonet Driven: More Than Just A Great Brochure?.
