Our take on this /// Verdict

The Kia Sonet Turbo HTK Plus DCT is a compelling package in the sub-4 meter SUV segment, offering a blend of style, features, and performance. The 998 cc turbo-petrol engine, producing 118 bhp and 172 Nm of torque, coupled with the 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, makes it a joy to drive, especially in sport mode where the throttle response is more energetic. The interior is plush, with a new 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster and a user-friendly UI system, enhancing the overall driving experience. However, the ride can feel firm on rough surfaces, and the steering lacks feel at higher speeds. Despite these minor drawbacks, the Sonet stands out with its extensive feature list, including a 360 parking camera, cooled seats, and a Bose audio system, making it a strong contender in its class.

Price

The Kia Sonet Turbo HTK Plus DCT is priced competitively in the Indian market. The ex-showroom price in New Delhi is around Rs. 12,50,900. When you factor in the RTO, insurance, and other charges, the on-road price jumps to approximately Rs. 14,81,900. This pricing positions the Sonet HTK Plus DCT as a premium offering within its segment, but the extensive list of features and the refined driving experience justify the cost. For those looking to finance their purchase, the EMI can be around Rs. 30,048 per month, making it a viable option for those seeking a feature-rich and performance-oriented SUV.

Latest Updates

Tuesday, 09 July 2024 05:46 PM Kia India has updated the Sonet HTK Plus Turbo iMT variant with new features, including LED headlamps, which were previously reserved for the HTX and above variants. This upgrade enhances the vehicles visibility and aesthetic appeal. The HTK Plus also now comes with a rear wiper and washer, and ISOFIX child seat anchors for added safety. I think these additions make the HTK Plus a more compelling option in its segment.

Thursday, 20 June 2024 12:03 AM The Kia Sonet HTK Plus Turbo iMT is powered by a 998 cc Smartstream G1.0 TGDi engine, producing 118 bhp of power and 172 Nm of torque. This engine is paired with a 6-speed intelligent Manual Transmission (iMT), offering a balance between performance and fuel efficiency. With an ARAI-certified mileage of 18.4 kmpl, this variant is a strong contender in the sub-compact SUV market. I believe the iMT transmission is a great option for those who want the control of a manual without the clutch hassle.

Wednesday, 15 May 2024 04:12 PM Kia has introduced the 2024 Sonet with several advanced features, including a 26.03 cm (10.25”) HD Touchscreen Navigation and a Full Digital Cluster with a 26.04 cm (10.25”) Color LCD MID. The HTK Plus Turbo iMT variant also benefits from these technological upgrades, enhancing the driving experience with features like wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. The addition of a Smart Pure Air Purifier with virus and bacteria protection is a notable feature, especially in todays health-conscious environment.

Wednesday, 10 April 2024 07:33 PM The Kia Sonet HTK Plus Turbo iMT is available in nine different color options, including Glacier White Pearl, Sparkling Silver, and Intense Red. This variety allows buyers to choose a color that suits their personal style. Additionally, the variant comes with a range of comfort features such as front ventilated seats and an electric sunroof, making it a comfortable choice for daily driving. I think the color options are quite vibrant and appealing.

Monday, 25 March 2024 04:57 AM Kia India has announced that the Sonet HTK Plus Turbo iMT now comes with advanced safety features, including six airbags, Electronic Stability Control (ESC), Hill Assist Control (HAC), and Brake Assist (BA). These features significantly enhance the safety profile of the vehicle, making it a reliable choice for family use. The inclusion of these safety features is a welcome move, especially in a segment where safety is often a top priority.

Wednesday, 28 February 2024 04:22 PM The Kia Sonet HTK Plus Turbo iMT features a spacious interior with amenities like rear AC vents, center fascia AC vents, and storage pockets behind the front seats. The rear seats can be folded to increase boot space, adding to the practicality of the vehicle. This makes it suitable for both daily commuting and long road trips. I think the interior space and amenities are well thought out.

Saturday, 20 January 2024 06:02 AM Kia has priced the Sonet HTK Plus Turbo iMT at Rs. 10.75 lakh (ex-showroom) in New Delhi. When including RTO, insurance, and other costs, the on-road price comes to around Rs. 12.38 lakh. This pricing makes the HTK Plus a competitive option in the sub-compact SUV segment. I believe the pricing is quite competitive given the features and performance.

Friday, 15 December 2023 06:49 PM The Kia Sonet HTK Plus Turbo iMT boasts a range of convenience features, such as automatic climate control, parking sensors, and a smartphone app that allows remote horn and headlight activation. These features enhance the overall convenience and user experience of the vehicle. The addition of Alexa virtual assistant technology further adds to the convenience factor.

Monday, 20 November 2023 04:32 PM Kia has equipped the Sonet HTK Plus Turbo iMT with a 360-degree camera and blind view monitor, which is part of the ADAS Level 1 package. This advanced technology helps in improving safety and driving convenience, especially in tight city spaces. I think this feature is a game-changer for urban driving.

Wednesday, 25 October 2023 10:57 AM The Kia Sonet HTK Plus Turbo iMT comes with a BOSE premium 7-speaker system, providing an enhanced audio experience. The interior also features LED ambient sound mood lights, which create a unique ambiance inside the vehicle. These features contribute to a more enjoyable and comfortable driving experience.

Mileage

Tuesday, 19 November 2024 11:28 AM When it comes to mileage, the Kia Sonet Turbo HTK Plus DCT delivers mixed results. While the ARAI-certified mileage is 18.4 kmpl, real-world tests suggest it can vary significantly. In city driving, you can expect around 12-14 kmpl, and on highways, it can go up to 18-21 kmpl, depending on driving conditions and modes used. This variability means that while it may not be the most fuel-efficient option, it still offers a reasonable balance between performance and economy, making it a consideration for those who prioritize both aspects.
