Bookings for the Sonet are open as well. It is receiving a warm response from the Indian audience. Here’s a video that we came across on YouTube, which was uploaded by Viratian A on his channel. This video backs up our statement as the host captures the views of prospective buyers of the Sonet. In the video, the host asks the consumers for their input on what they feel about the car.

The first customer he comes across, reveals that he booked the Sonet for its length as it is smaller than the Seltos, which a good aspect when driving in the city traffic. He states that he hasn’t even stepped inside the car even once. He just saw the exterior design and made a booking. Next consumer that the host heads over to claims that they liked the reverse parking camera and sensors, which are a boon when parking the car in tight spaces. Also, they appreciated the availability of the sunroof and the overall seat comfort.

Also, the tiger-nose grille flanked by sleek LED headlamps on either side adds to the car’s overall appeal. Similarly, all other customers appreciate the design of the Sonet.
