In 2021, we were in search for new beast to be added in the family. The requirements were simple ( Black Diesel Automatic Car with Sunroof within 12-13 lakhs). We started the market research and found our love which was just launched . KIA Sonet HTX Diesel AT. The beast , till date I don't think there is a better car under 13 lakhs with the features and engine that the Sonet provides. Rich interiors with all the required features , it was a complete package for us. The pickup is unmatchable which gives goosebumps once you give it a full throttle. There is no single day when I don't turn back to see my car after parking it. 3 years completed with 73000 kms with couple of Modifications. I have driven the car on steep hills and it has never let me down and very stable on highways. I feel like the car you drive or how you maintain your car is a reflection of the kind of person you are. Happy Driving folks!

Among all the cars on sale in India, my personal favourite is the Kia Sonet Not just because I currently own one, but because it strikes a perfect balance between practicality, style, and driving pleasure. What I love most about the Sonet is how well it adapts to both city commutes and long road trips. It is compact eNough to handle Bangalore's traffic, yet spacious and comfortable for extended journeys. The diesel engine offers great mileage and torque, which has been a blessing on my South India circuit road trip. The infotainment system, ventilated seats, and overall cabin quality make every drive enjoyable. But beyond features, it is the emotional connection that matters. The Sonet has been my companion on countless adventures, and every trip has deepened my appreciation for its reliability and versatility. It is a car that makes me look forward to the next drive and that, to me, is the true mark of a favourite.
