“Kia has just shared the prices for the updated Sonet. Let’s see what’s new so you can decide if it’s worth buying.
The 2024 Sonet has more features and a fresh look. It starts at Rs 7.99 lakh.
There are three engine options, with the diesel one starting at Rs 9.7 lakh.
For a fun drive, we suggest the turbo petrol with DCT automatic. It gives a precise punch and acceleration.
The turbo petrol also offers better speed, around 10-12 km/litre. The ride can be a bit harsh but enjoyable.
The changes are mostly in the appearance and features. It now looks like the Seltos, with new headlamps and a redesigned bumper. The rear has a vertical lamp with a light bar.
Inside, the Sonet has a new instrument cluster, updated dashboard, and various trim options. The digital display is premium, and you can change layouts and drive modes.
The infotainment system is new with a touchscreen. It also has a 360-degree camera, powered driver seat, ADAS level 1, ambient lighting, Bose audio, sunroof, and connected car technology.
While the space at the front is good, the back is a bit tight. The updated seats help a bit.
Overall, the Sonet keeps its good qualities with features, quality, and technology.
It may not be very spacious, but its sporty look and above-average features could attract small families.”
