A Well-packed Compact SUV In The Segment

I was looking for a sub-4-metre car and found the Kia Sonet. I own the GTX plus diesel AT variant. It is the best all-rounder compact SUV in the segment. PROS: It has all the necessary features like a voice-assisted sunroof, automatic climate control, air purifier, connected car features(KIA Connect app) and a variety of engine and transmission options. The diesel engine is very smooth and unlike other diesel engine cars, the diesel clatter cannot be heard. The diesel engine offers a lot of punch and a really good milage. I get an average fuel economy of around 12-15km/L in the city and 18-22km/L on the highway (varies on the driving style). The automatic torque converter gearbox is doing a fantastic job by shifting quickly and efficiently without any lag. It has a really beautiful and sporty interiors. The boot is very large with a space of 387L. The car got 6 airbags as standard right from the base model which is good. The service cost is less. CONS: The suspension is on the stiffer side and can feel the bumps at lower speed but the ride is excellent as it reaches higher speed. Even though it has good amount of legroom, I expected a little more. VERDICT: The Kia Sonet is a good 5-seater compact family SUV that offers good safety and feel. I will surely suggest this car to anyone who are looking for a compact SUV with really good engine and transmission options.
