It’s been a few years since the Kia Sonet has been around on Indian roads and like any new model, there are questions regarding its long term reliability. Given that Sonet is feature rich and has complex powertrains like 1.0L turbo petrol, potential buyers want to know how the car performs after the first honeymoon period. People are interested in knowing about common problems that owners have had, the cost and frequency of maintenance, and how Kia's after sales service is handling any problems. In fact, there are also some discussions about reliability of certain components such as DCT transmission or touchscreen infotainment system. What is of interest in this question is the ownership experience of the long term Sonet owners, any recurrent problems they faced and how the car has stood over a period of time in terms of build quality and performance.
