Upfront the Sonet gains a new light signature, a new front bumper, an updated iteration of Kia’s tiger nose grille and a revised fender and bonnet, which all combine to create a notably more dramatic visage that adds to the Sonet’s wide, confident stance.

At the rear, this sporty, wide stance is reiterated through redesigned taillights that are horizontally connected just beneath the rear window, giving the Sonet a new rear light signature that compliments the redesigned tailgate and bumper.

The dimensions of the Sonet remain unchanged which in conjunction with a long wheelbase and short rear overhang frees up space in the cabin and boot, giving the Sonet one of the roomiest cabins in its class. The Sonet offers excellent leg and headroom compared to many of its segment competitors, while the 385-litre boot is also one of the biggest in the segment. Ride comfort is ensured through a combination of a MacPherson strut set up at the front, coupled to a torsion beam axle at the rear. Two 16-inch wheel options are available, in conjunction with the different model derivatives

The high-quality interior and layout of the instrumentation remains unchanged. The infotainment screen measures eight-inches or 10.25-inches depending on the grade while all of the car’s important controls remain intuitively positioned to reduce instances of distracted driving. A combination of black cloth and artificial leather upholstered seats are fitted as standard while higher specification models feature artificial leather upholstery as standard.

The new Kia Sonet retains the familiar, naturally aspirated 1.5-litre MPI and turbocharged 1.0-litre GDi petrol engines that the range is known for. The fuel efficient 1.5 MPI three-cylinder engine produces 85kW and 144Nm and is paired with a five-speed manual transmission or CVT.

The four-cylinder 1.0-litre T-GDi offers 88kW and 172Nm and is only available in conjunction with a seven-speed dual clutch transmission.

Prices include a five-year/unlimited distance warranty inclusive of roadside assistance, and a four-year/60,000km service plan.
