The Kia Sonet will make its global debut here in India on August 7. It is one of the highly anticipated launches of this year, foraying in the extremely popular subcompact SUV segment. Now the segment already has some of the bestselling models in the country and the Kia Sonet is a bit late to the party. Having said that, Kia has some tricks up its sleeve that should go a long way in helping the Sonet catch up. Manohar Bhatt, Head-Sales & Marketing- Kia Motors India had revealed on our Freewheeling with SVP webisode that the Sonet will be offered with some segment-first features, just like the Seltos. Here are the top-five segment-first features we expect it to borrow from the Seltos.
