The Sonet has received excellent response ever since its launch in India and as well in Nepal. Now, Kia is updating the Sonet and has confirmed its arrival in the first week of May in India. Apart from Kia's new logo, the 2021 Sonet will arrive in one new variant and more features but no mechanical changes. Kia will introduce the mid-spec automatic variants on the 2021 model in the higher HTX variant.There will also be a few updates to the existing variants of the Kia Sonet in the safety department. The updated Sonet will now come with ESC, hill-start assist, vehicle stability management, and brake assist as standard from the HTX variant onwards. These safety features were only available on the HTK+ petrol DCT and the fully-loaded GTX+. Additionally, the HTX automatic (petrol and diesel) variants will also pack in selectable traction and drive modes – again features currently limited to the GTX+ automatics and the now discontinued HTK+ DCT.A notable addition to the Sonet line-up will be the inclusion of a sunroof of the HTK+ turbo-petrol iMT trim. Other updates to the HTK+ trim will include keyless entry and go and remote engine-start on the turbo-petrol and diesel model. Aside from the safety updates, the HTX trim will also now come with the dual-tone 16-inch alloys seen on the HTX+ and GTX+ trims. Additionally, the automatic variants will also get steering-mounted paddles – the GTX+ automatics will also get paddle shifters. Onto the fully-loaded trims, the HTX+ and GTX+ are also expected to get an updated version of Kia’s UVO Connect connected car tech.The Sonet will go up against the likes of the Suzuki Vitara Brezza, Tata Nexon, Hyundai Venue, Ford EcoSport, Nissan Magnite, and the upcoming Renault Kiger.
