    Need Improvement

    Need Improvement

    Have driven my Kia SONET HTK plus 850 km in one month which includes the city as well as the highway. My observations are 1) seriously underpowered 2) mileage is very poor in the city, it is 8-9 km/h and on highways 10-11 while AC is in. 3) Headlight is too weak to drive at night 4) suspension is so poor that one feels the jerks even in small potholes.5) engine sound is felt inside pretty much. I am truly disappointed as my previously owned Grand i10 was far superior in terms of overall performance. The performance of the vehicle is only good in the 4th &5th gears. On 2nd gear, power lag is more prominent. While reversing in muddy areas, the engine of SONET appears to be giving away. Kia doesn't let you test drive HTK plus petrol instead they provide a turbo one that performs better than HTK plus petrol. In one sentence, SONET HTK plus petrol is a goat in the tiger's skin. I am hugely disappointed.

      Dont Go For This Car. Waste Of Money .
      9km per litre and suspension is the worst thing. Maintaining this vehicle for 5 years. And rear seats are uncomfortable for passengers If you have more budgets buy polo or virtus I don't know why Kia still don't upgraded the Suspension and mileage issues. I'm thinking to buy another vehicle. B 6e or seitan

      The car gives the average mileage of 16-18 kmpl on highway, and 10-14 kmpl on city ride. You can get unto 20 kmpl if rider with low rpm. The car comes with more features compared with its competitors at its price range. The car performs smooth ride as well as aggressive if needed.

      Most Feature Loaded In The Segment
      The styling and build quality of Kia Sonet is the top notch and gets very solid impression. Its cabin is very comfortable and comes with multiple powertrain options and it also gives segment first and best features. It is one of the most features loaded in the segment and gives good amount of headroom and legroom space. The rear seat gives a very good back support and the touchscreen is very smooth but the under thigh support should be more comfortable. The infotainment system gives good features and the quality of material is also good.

      Overall Good
      The design and engine are good, and overall performance is satisfactory. However, the only disadvantages are safety and mileage – 13 to 15 in the city and 18 to 20 on the highway. Still worth buying.
