    What's the story

    In a remarkable achievement, Kia Motors has sold over one lakh units of the Sonet sub-compact SUV in India since its launch in September last year.

    Notably, 64% of the total sales have been contributed by the top-tier variants while 30% and 26% of the customers chose the connected variant and iMT models, respectively.

    The car comes in three petrol and diesel engine options.

    The Kia Sonet features a muscular body with a sculpted bonnet, a chrome outlined grille, a large blacked-out air dam, LED headlights, and LED DRLs.

    On the sides, it is flanked by roof rails, black B-pillars, indicator-mounted ORVMs, and 16-inch alloy wheels.
