Our take on this /// Verdict

The Kia Sonet GTX Plus Diesel AT is a compelling package that stands out in its segment. From my experience, this vehicle excels in several key areas. The 1.5L CRDi VGT engine, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission, offers a refined and powerful driving experience, especially noticeable in city traffic and on highways. The handling is impressive, with minimal body roll and a reassuring steering feel, making it a joy to drive on various road conditions. The interior is luxurious, featuring ventilated seats, power-adjustable driver seats, and a plethora of convenience features like a 360-degree camera and cruise control. Safety is also well taken care of with six airbags and advanced driver assistance systems. Overall, the Sonet GTX Plus Diesel AT feels well ahead of its class in terms of quality, drivability, and comfort, making it a strong contender in the compact SUV segment.

Price

The Kia Sonet GTX Plus Diesel AT is priced at Rs 15.56 lakh (ex-showroom) in New Delhi. When you factor in the on-road costs, including registration, insurance, and other charges, the price can go up to around Rs 18-20 lakh, depending on the state and local taxes. Given the extensive list of features, the refined engine, and the premium feel of the vehicle, this price point is quite competitive. It offers a lot more than what you would typically expect in this segment, making it a good value for money. However, its always a good idea to check the current market offers and any local incentives that might reduce the overall cost.

Latest Updates

Tuesday, 09 July 2024 01:37 PM Kia India has updated the 2024 Sonet lineup, including the Diesel GTX Plus variant, with new features such as a wireless phone charger, rear wiper and washer, and 16-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels for the HTX variant, which are also reflected in the higher trims. The GTX Plus now comes with drive and traction modes, leatherette seats, ventilated front seats, and a 360-degree surround camera. I think these additions make the Sonet even more competitive in the compact SUV segment.
