Kia Stonic 2018 Road Test & Review

The 2018 Stonic by Kia, a very capable B SUV with a 1 Litre 3 cylinder engine, great gearbox and peppy performance, lots of space, tech loaded as standard and if you go for a higher trim options include reversing camera and cross traffic alert.
All in all the Kia Stonic is a great all rounder.

I'm so glad I watched to the end....seeing that wonderful matching umbrella to your jumper, Ben😉👍....not a car I'd consider....but great value for money and with a 7 year warranty. Great vid chaps

[@PlanetautoUK]

Miles Drive colour coordination is key, I do love that Formula e umbrella, the Stonic is a great vehicle which you can spec up to quite a level, thank you.

I'm a latecomer to this channel. Came here for the Stonic in near 2021 as virus subsided in Aussie. Stonic about to get a launch here. Albeit a 2021 one. Enjoyed your vid and thank you.

[@PlanetautoUK]

Hello and welcome, thank you Letsseeif for watching our channel, keep us posted on when you get your Stonic. *B

[@mattjames7386]

Great review. I've heard that it can get noisy at higher speeds or on motorways. Did you notice that? What are your thoughts? Thanks

[@PlanetautoUK]

Not particularly, we drove ours over 500 miles on motorways etc, and nothing sticks out in our mind, it likely depends on wheel size and tyre profile, il check tomorrow which spec ours was in relation to wheels.

@@PlanetautoUK great thank you

[@NAKMUAYACADEMY]

Very curious your opinion which one would be overall best,Stonic ,ceed ,xceed or maybe Hyundai i30 or touscan ? Very curious your opinion

[@PlanetautoUK]

Depends on what you need and in our case more importantly what you want.

now there is the automatic gearbox version on the 1.0 TGDI

[@stevegrattan5257]

You seem to rate the stonic and late in the video you say its comfortable yet early on in your review you say the seats are not very comfortable.I have a 2016 rio which I find comfortable and am considering changing to a stonic gt line but can't even sit in one at the moment . I really wouldn't want to buy a car with uncomfortable seats

[@PlanetautoUK]

We’ve just rewatched this, and it appears Michael says uhcomfortable, but meant to say comfortable, hence his happy movement, and to clarify - this is a comfortable vehicle we did a round trip of 300 or so miles, and it was very pleasant, hope this helps and thank you Steve, best bet though is sit in one when it’s possible

[@stevegrattan5257]

@@PlanetautoUK thanks for clearing that up but I doubt I'll be able to sit in one any time soon and I'd prefer to change before mine needs mot and service in a couple of weeks, I'm also considering a ceed which I'm sure I will like but is a bit too big for my wife

[@PlanetautoUK]

That’s an impressive car too, have you seen our full review? We can post the link if you like, thank you Steve

[@stevegrattan5257]

@@PlanetautoUK thanks I'll find it and have a watch i would prefer ceed but my wife's worried about parking the ceed

[@PlanetautoUK]

Our one in 2018 had a reversing camera, that should help

‘Tevering points’, six-foot free, free children.....no ! Learn to speak correctly before starting a video channel.

Well this is your lucky day, Eugene. Michael has left Planetauto, and both Ben and myself have perfect RP diction, so no more of that...👍
