Is The Mid-Spec Kia Sonet EX the Best Value in the line-up? [Car Review]

[@thetrustysidekick3013]

Not a fan of sunroofs. It's a vulnerability point in the car because it's the easiest to break and costs money to replace.

[@jonmanilenio]

Exactly. I wish dealers would let us choose if we want a sunroof or not. Now we can't buy top of the line anymore because they all have a sunroof.

[@TamagoTurtle]

agreed. those things mess up the structural rigidity of a vehicle and what’s it for? let in more heat? no thank you. leaking issues are a problem for car owners too.

[@purpleandbrownies]

I completely agree. I really want the SX but since it has sunroof, I will get the EX instead. I don’t want unnecessary expense in the future.

[@VMankevofficial]

Haha hulogan ka ng bunga ng niyog 😂

[@angeluisnotonfire]

I own the EX variant, take it from me, there IS a seat height adjustment 😆 I’m a 5’0, definitely wouldn’t be able to drive this if it didn’t have any adjuster

[@jomusic24]

Thanks for the review. But sana habang binabanggit yung kaibahan sa other variant ay nag papakita ng picture para makita din talaga pag kakaiba. Yun lang po. Salamat.

[@reckon7457]

Halos wala naman po difference sa ibang variant sa exterior looks except for sunroof and roof rails. Features lang ang difference like wireless cahrging, push start etc etc.

[@dachosenone207]

I was expecting. Back to you past Ryan on the back side hehe

[@jesterlumbres7216]

Don't worry, Sonet EX 2025 has Seat height. I have it...😊

[@darklord6357]

Kahit 2024 model meron din po (EX owner here), baka since demo unit lng ung nilend sa kanya kaya wala?

[@mangmangako]

@@darklord6357 nagtest drive din ako EX dati wala rin height adjustment po. pero may mga bumili ng EX may adjustment naman daw po

[@DrHenryDimaano]

EX has a "sport mode"?.. How do you turn that on?

[@eljackolito]

hey bro, just move the shift lever to the left when on D mode

[@vincemosatalla]

Yes sir. Ex has seat height adjustment.. ex owner here

[@ReygansRides]

My demo unit probably came with LX seats. 😅

[@jortuspelatus7364]

Why forego the Sonet? Was it a bad car for you?

[@eljackolito]

@@ReygansRides the SX variant that I tested is using LX seats as well

[@zianlim1950]

how does this compare with honda brv s?

[@angeliquestar]

My first car. Good drive handling for beginners. 👍👍

[@dyanlylym6743]

Sonet lx,ex and sx their differences are the convenience or features of each trim other than that pareha Lang. Why don’t you try the base model na manual (review) bihira ka maka kita nag rereview sa manual variant. I think that is the most practical to go with considering the price. Features is almost the same (not so behind) from other variants.

[@ravenreyes1804]

This or chery tiggo 2 pro 2025?

[@razzeljaygaffud953]

May height adjustment ang EX, sir

[@ReygansRides]

Yung sa test unit ko wala...

[@dasio1]

May front and rear sensors po ba tong ex variant?

[@vonjorel]

Rear parking

[@DrHenryDimaano]

Rear camera & proximity sensors lang. No front proximity sensor.

[@BenjieTS]

Nice :) lezzz gooo

[@regieaguilar7618]

Kuya reygan kelan ka mg lalabas ng review sa b30 mu .. 😊😊

[@ReygansRides]

Around January, nasa break in period pa eh

[@frpayawal]

EX is the best value among the variants imo. For less than 1m, I got everything I need and most of what I want. Sunroofs in the PH are senseless to me, dont like leather seats, advance driver assist features and auto climate control I can do without, I still prefer analog gauges. The only thing I like in the SX is the bigger infotainment screen. If I'm going to spend 1.15m on an SX then I'd just pony up the extra cash and get a base Seltos.

[@vonjorel]

EX best variant

[@mderla.87]

Merong seat height ang EX. Naka EX ako eh. Lol

[@ReygansRides]

Where was it? How come the demo unit I got did not have it?

[@jvn1004]

@@ReygansRides Maybe because it's a demo unit :D and not meant to be sold.. I'm also an EX owner, merong height adjustment unit namin

[@ReygansRides]

@@jvn1004 That probably explains it.

[@elicamariz9320]

@@mderla.87 Correct si sir may height adjustment ang ex di nga din alam ng agent

[@darklord6357]

2024 EX owner here, meron din seat height adjustment ung unit ko, since di ako pinagpala sa height, gamit n gamit ko yun and one reason bakit ako nagEX instead of LX (not a fan of sunroof, di sya practical for me kaya I did not go for SX)

[@wowfantasticabby]

Still waiting for the full driving impression of Sonet SX 🥹

[@reckon7457]

Almost the same across all variants.
