          Let us help you find the dream car

          Pros and Cons

          • Pros
          • Cons

            Kia Sonet

            • Presence. Tall height and bonnet gives the Sonet a strong stance.
            • Feature packed: ventilated seats, wireless charging, ambient lighting, Bose sound system and lots more.
            • ‘Proper’ automatic options: 7-speed DCT for the turbo-petrol, 6-speed AT for the diesel.
            • Comfortable ride quality: equally adept at tackling bad roads and high-speed cruising.

            Mahindra Bolero

            • Tough built quality. Hard to damage.
            • Built to take punishment
            • Ride quality soft to suit no road conditions

            Kia Sonet

            • Limited rear-seat width limits usability as a 5-seater.
            • Silly cost-cutting measures: backlight only for driver’s power window, missing chilled glovebox, adjustable front armrest.
            • Automatic transmissions limited to mid-spec HTK+ and top-spec GTX+ variants only.

            Mahindra Bolero

            • Noisy cabin
            • Utilitarian layout
            • Bare bone features
