Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Hyundai Alcazar
- Better rear seat experience than the Hyundai Creta.
- Segment first features like adjustable underthigh support and a utility tray with a cupholder for the 2nd row.
- Third row for children or small adults.
- Still retains some boot space and 3rd row folds flat to give generous boot space.
- Just like the Creta, it's a feature rich experience with a panoramic sunroof, ventilated seats, 2 zones of climate control, and more.
Kia Sonet
- Looks better than before with a better lighting setup.
- Added features, borrowed from a segment above, make it one of the most loaded SUV in its segment.
- Most number of powertrain options in the segment, with 3 engines and 5 transmission options to choose from.
- One of the best all rounders in the segment.

Hyundai Alcazar
- 3rd row is not suitable for full-sized adults.
- Not eaisly distinguishible from the smaller Creta.
- Blue plastics show some colour mismatch problems like on the small button cluster on the right side of the steering column.
Kia Sonet
- Borrowing powertrains and features from a segment above has made it pretty expensive.
- Cabin insulation could have been better.
- Turbo-petrol engine option, in Sport mode, feels jerky to drive in traffic.
- Rear seats could have had better cushioning and better space
