Hi, 3xo is the better option Considering -Value for money -Useful features -Sitting 3 in the back -better suspension Sonet becomes a better option, when looks of vehicle is more important for you.

Thank you

Hi, Nothing to worry about. Compared to other small capacity engines, this G1.0 Turbo generates higher power and torque hence the the heat output is directly proportional. It's designed to work in those thermal conditions. Anyway, if you are observing abnormal heating please check with service team.

Thank you

Hi, Eniku ithine kurichu ariyilla bro

Yes, ex showroom Ipo 12.48 L aayitundu ex showroom for HTX DCT

Thank you

Yes, Material quality and fit finish is top class.

I am driving the same model since a few days now and i think it's an issue only for people who manhandle the gear box rather than treating it the way it's supposed to be. Most people think that Automatic means they don't have to touch the gear lever until they stop at their destination, which is wrong. In case of long stops such as at the signals, you need to have your car shifted back to Neutral or Parking. Else it's just trying to move forward in Drive Gear while you have applied the brakes which will eventually cause trouble. Compare the same scenario with a manual gearbox. If you drive a manual car, you either put your car in Neutral or you have the Clutch engaged while you let go off the accelerator at any stop. You don't accelerate your car and step on the brakes at the same time.

Hi, DCT gear box heats up in stop and go traffic due to the "clutch slip" happening. If you are using manual mode in the DCT gear box, it's not going to reduce the chance of gearbox heating. The ideal solution is to shift to neutral mode, if you stay stopped for more than 10 seconds.

Well explained

Congratulations

Hi, My choice will be Kia Sonet HTX DCT. Because, it comes with a great DCT gear box and a more powerful engine compared to the 1.5 mpi engine. Higher ground clearance Leatherette seat with ventilation Interior design (subjective) Verna could be better if you prefer to have More stability in the drive Better boot space Broader cabin and rear seat leg space Low drive position

Thank you bro

Hi bro, Sonet comes with 3 different engines 1. 1.2 L MPI 4 cyl engine 2. 1.0 L Turbo GDI 3 cyl engine 3. 1.5 L CRDI 4 cyl engine

Hi bro, I haven't faced the heating issue in bumper to bumper traffic. It doesn't move to auto mode. I will check again.

Hi, This is a completely subjective topic. Brown and black felt premium for me because it's made out of leather and comes with ventilation.

Thank you

Hi, These two vehicles belong to different size categories. If you are looking for space Vitara is the option. But in all other aspects like features, a high torque engine Sonet is better. Please note: diesel vehicles will have slightly higher maintenance and Pollution norms may get tighter in future.

Hi, In City 8~10 In highway 12~16 If you have time, please watch my drive review for details.

Thanks a ton

Hi, Technically it can happen. Because DCTs are operated with twin clutches. And at lower speeds there is a very high chance of "clutch slip" to keep crawling (technically the clutch has to work against the brakes being applied by the driver to keep the speed low). This leads to over heating of clutches. Best practice is to shift to neutral when not moving in traffic. And this heating depends on multiple factors like Driving behaviour, environment temperature etc.

Yes Ofcourse, It comes with seat height adjustment. With this you can set your seat height as per the physique. For your reference: I am 5'10", and I drive it with the default seat height.

Thank you so much for your immediate response

Thanks for Bringing this point. I bought it one month ago. Even though the new price hike is completely acceptable for the features added.

@@ajayprabhakarkavungal Agree :). I booked it a week back, and was a bit sceptical with the price bump. But after getting this news and the bump of 13K-15K in MH region has made this agreeable for me! Hope you enjoy the car, cheers

Hi George, Ex showroom is 12,48,900/- Mileage in City 10~12 km/l Highway 14~16 km/l

Hi Anil, It's true that Sonet comes with a Stiff suspension. But not uncomfortable. I never had any complaints from my passengers regarding suspension, but rear seats are uncomfortable due to Less under thigh support and Less shoulder space for 3 passengers. Apparently, the stiff suspension helps to improve the stability at higher speeds and keeps the vehicle agile in corners.

Thanks for the info😊

Hi, There are six airbags in total across all variants of Sonet. Front dual airbags, Front seat side airbags and side curtain airbags.

One request bro can you make a review for ciaz top model and is it still a good option in 2024?

Thank you

Right

Thank you.

Thanks for bringing up this point. As per the Kia Manual: "After pressing the unlock button, the doors will lock automatically unless you open any door within 30 seconds" You can observe the same in 00:24 of the video.

Thank you

Thank you

Thanks for bringing these points. Will definitely discuss this in the drive review.

Yes of course. The design of the wheel could be subjective from person to person. In my perspective, a thin spoke wheel with maximum visibility to discs(paint the calipers if possible) can make it look better. The standard offset is 49-53 mm, and if you increase this it will look cool. When it comes to diameter a 16" will be perfect in proportion.
