The Kia Sonet 2025 gets a smart facelift that enhances its bold SUV character with sharper design elements and a modern edge. The signature tiger-nose grille is now wider and more detailed, flanked by updated LED headlamps with Z-shaped DRLs that add a striking presence on the road.
Premium Interior With Dual Screen Layout, Digital Display, and Segment-Leading Features
Inside the Sonet 2025, Kia has upgraded the dashboard with a more refined dual-screen layout that merges a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system and a digital driver display into a sleek, connected setup. The cabin continues to offer a black and beige dual-tone theme with silver accents and leatherette upholstery in higher trims. Features include wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, voice-controlled functions, wireless charging with cooling pad, rear AC vents, air purifier, ambient lighting, electric sunroof, and ventilated front seats. The new UI of the infotainment system feels responsive and clean, while the connected car tech through Kia Connect enables remote lock-unlock, engine start, climate control, and live tracking. With ample legroom in the rear, 60:40 split seats, and a 392L boot, the Sonet strikes a great balance between style and utility.
Multiple Powertrains Including Turbo Petrol, Diesel Automatic, and iMT Gearbox
The Kia Sonet 2025 offers one of the widest powertrain choices in its class. You can opt for the smooth 1.2L petrol engine for daily commutes, the powerful 1.0L turbo petrol with 120PS and 172Nm torque paired with iMT or 7-speed DCT automatic for spirited performance, or the highly efficient 1.5L diesel engine that now comes with both 6-speed manual and 6-speed automatic options. The turbo and diesel variants continue to deliver excellent highway drivability and punchy torque, while fuel efficiency remains strong across the range—going up to 21 kmpl for diesel and around 18.5 kmpl for turbo petrol. The clutchless iMT and quick-shifting DCT give urban drivers more flexibility, while long-distance users will appreciate the diesel’s cruising efficiency and low-end grunt.
Top-Notch Safety With 6 Airbags, ADAS, TPMS, and Hill Assist
The Sonet 2025 elevates safety with 6 airbags as standard in mid and top variants, electronic stability control, traction control, hill assist, and ISOFIX mounts for child safety. The biggest addition is the introduction of Level-1 ADAS features like front collision warning, lane keep assist, and high-beam assist in the top trims, making the Sonet one of the most advanced compact SUVs in India. A 360-degree camera with parking sensors on both ends, TPMS, ABS with EBD, and rearview monitor ensure high visibility and awareness in tight spaces. Kia’s robust platform and excellent build quality continue to inspire confidence on highways and city roads alike.
Compact SUV With Bold Looks, Powerful Engines, and Best-in-Class Features
The Kia Sonet 2025 stands out in the sub-4m SUV space for offering a bold design, premium cabin experience, powerful turbo and diesel engines, and a long list of segment-first features including ADAS and ventilated seats. Available in multiple trims including Tech Line, GT Line, and X Line, the Sonet starts at around ₹8 lakh and goes up to ₹15.50 lakh (ex-showroom) depending on variant and configuration. Its wide variant lineup ensures there’s a Sonet for every kind of buyer whether you want an affordable family car, a tech-loaded commuter, or a sporty urban SUV. With Kia’s strong after-sales support, high resale value, and youthful appeal, the Sonet continues to be a top pick in 2025 for those seeking style without compromising on practicality.
