Shortly after the official unveiling of the Sonet, the features and variant-wise breakup of the Kia Sonet SUV has been leaked online through a brochure scan. The all-new sub-four-metre SUV by Kia will be developed on the same platform as the Hyundai Venue and in line with the earlier Kia cars, the upcoming Sonet will be packed with a long list of features, many of which are first in the segment.

The spy video shows a Kia Sonet HTX which is the top-spec variant of the Tech Line trim. Although the car has been recorded from the back most of the time, we can still see a certain amount of premium and aggression offered on the new vehicle. As per the video, the Kia Sonet features brilliant full-LED tail lamps while the LED light bar connected both tail lamps together is quite a modern trend for the SUV. However, the light bar doesn’t light up when the driver engages the brake.

Overall, the Kia Sonet looks fresh and stylish on the roads. With a distinctive design, the all-new Sonet is expected to garner a lot of eyeballs from the onlookers once it’s launched.
