Q. Which Kia Sonet is better, diesel or petrol?

Selecting the right fuel type depends on your utility and the average running of the car. If you drive less than 50km in a day then we recommend you to go with a petrol car as they are easy to maintain, have a longer life span and they cost less initially than the diesel car. On the other hand, diesel cars are preferred if the average daily run is more than 50km which makes it a feasible purchase.Diesel cars are more fuel-efficient and provide more torque, therefore, are preferred for a person who drives more than 50km. Whereas, the petrol engine has a low service cost, more life span, generally have a well-controlled NVH level and are cheaper in cost than the diesel engines. Kia Sonet is currently available in Petrol and Diesel engines. The 999 cc Petrol engine generates a power of 118.36bhp@6000rpm and torque of 172nm@1500-4000rpm, the 1197 cc petrol engine generates a max power of 81.86bhp@6000rpm and a max torque of 115nm@4200rpm. The 1498 cc Diesel engine generates a power of 98.63bhp@4000rpm and torque of 240nm@1500-2750rpm. Moreover, we would suggest you take a test drive before making the final decision.
