Our take on this /// Verdict

The Kia Sonet Turbo GTX Plus IMT is a compelling package in the compact SUV segment, offering a blend of performance, comfort, and features that make it a strong contender. The 1.0-liter turbo petrol engine, paired with the intuitive IMT (clutchless manual) transmission, provides a smooth and engaging driving experience, especially in Sport Mode where the engines true potential is unleashed. The ergonomics are well thought out, with physical buttons for key functions and excellent visibility from the driving position. The feature list is extensive, including ventilated seats, a sunroof, and a 10.25-inch touchscreen, making it a comfortable and tech-savvy choice. However, the top variants price and some minor niggles, such as the lack of paddle shifters and split rear seats, are points to consider. Overall, its a well-rounded vehicle that balances performance, comfort, and features, making it a great option for those seeking a premium compact SUV experience.

Price

The Kia Sonet Turbo GTX Plus IMT is priced competitively in the Indian market. The ex-showroom price for this variant is around Rs. 13.59 lakhs. However, the on-road price, which includes additional costs such as RTO fees, insurance, and other charges, can range from Rs. 16 lakhs to Rs. 17 lakhs, depending on the state and local taxes. While the top variant is quite expensive, the features and performance it offers justify the cost for many buyers. The pricing strategy positions the Sonet GTX Plus IMT as a premium offering within its segment, appealing to those who value advanced features and a refined driving experience.

This engine is paired with a 6-speed iMT (Intelligent Manual Transmission) for a smooth and efficient driving experience.
