Pros & Cons of KIA Sonet 2020-2024
KIA Sonet 2020-2024 Detailed Review
Summary
The Kia Sonet attracts eyeballs out on the streets and its youthful design language has won it plenty of takers in the Indian market. The GT line with its sportiness enhances the aesthetic appeal of the Sonet even more.
Summary
The Kia Sonet is well-proportioned. It features more than enough ground clearance and a class-leading wheelbase that guarantees enough interior space. One of the larger ones in the group is the 392 litre boot. Taller people may find the back seats to be a little uncomfortable.
Sonet 2020-2024 body specifications:
Wheel Size | R15, R16 & 16 Inch |
Seating Capacity | 5 seaters |
Ground Clearance | 205 mm |
Boot Space | 392 liters |
Summary
Kia is known to offer segment-best features in their cars and the Sonet is no different. It is packed with several best-in-class features including a massive touchscreen system.
Summary
Kia is offering multiple powertrain options with the Sonet and so there is one Sonet for everyone. However, if you want a powerful engine, the turbo petrol motor should be your pick. Also it's nice to see a Diesel paired up to a torque converter automatic gearbox in a segment dominated by AMT-equipped competitors.
Summary
The Kia Sonet is a pleasant car to drive and offers a nice balance of ride and handling. Even on twisty roads, it handles nicely, and at triple-digit speeds, it feels pretty stable. Although the light steering is ambiguous, it is useful when driving in cities.
Summary
The top-end variations of the Kia Sonet come with a plethora of safety features, while lower trims just get the most fundamental ones. It hasn't been crash tested yet, though, and the prior Hyundai-Kia products' underwhelming results in GNCAP tests don't exactly encourage confidence.

Airbag | 4, 2 & 6 airbags |
