00:06 So starting off with the front end of the Kia Sounded facelift,
00:10 you get these StarMap LED headlamps and StarMap LED DRLs as well.
00:15 And if you look, it has these really nice lights over there
00:19 and it comes with these really sleek looking fog lamps.
00:23 Also, it comes with an aerodynamic skid plate
00:26 and wheels, we have this really nice alloy finish, 16-inch wheels also at the front and the back.
00:32 Now, this is the side profile of the car.
00:35 Has a very, very nice upright and a very strong look to it.
00:40 Now at the rear, it comes with these spoilers,
00:43 which is also the same colour as the body as we can see.
00:47 Comes with that and it also comes with a brand new bumper design at the front and rear.
00:52 The car has 8 monotone finishes, 2 dual tone and 1 matte finish colour.
00:58 Also, they introduced the new Cuter Olive body colour
01:02 and at the rear, we have a really, really nicely designed tail lamp,
01:08 which connects from one side to the other.
01:11 So this is the Sounded facelift from the rear view and as you can see, it's the GT variant.
01:16 Now moving to the top of the car, we have these roof rails over here
01:20 and it comes with a shark fin antenna.
01:22 Now this is what we see on most of the car nowadays,
01:25 but yet again, it still adds a lot of design element to this car.
01:29 So moving to the interior of the Kia Sonet,
01:31 we have a 10.2-inch cluster over here and a 10.2-inch infotainment system as well.
01:38 Then on top of that, as you can see here are all the controls for your infotainment system.
01:43 Switch it on, volume, to get to your navigation, your media,
01:47 whatever you need is all controlled over here.
01:49 AC controls here, air vents are beautifully designed on this car, as we can see.
01:55 It has, inside the car, we have a dual-tone finish, this white and black
01:59 and plus the seats are ventilated seats, as we can see this really nice finish on this.
02:06 Plus the stitching on the car adds to the whole dual-tone effect,
02:09 just enhancing the whole luxury aspect, the whole comfort aspect inside the car.
02:14 Now the dash that we have has a really nice tactile feel,
02:17 it doesn't feel cheap or plasticky.
02:19 However, it is plastic, but it has a very nice feel to it.
02:22 Coming to the steering wheel, this is a steering wheel with a really nice Kia badging.
02:26 All your controls are over here, then you have your paddle shifters here, up and down
02:30 and that's for your IMT or your automatic transmission.
02:33 I'll come to all the engine specifications later, let's continue looking inside the car.
02:38 Now after this, we also have the steering wheel adjuster over here to raise it or lower it.
02:44 Then this is the automatic variant, so park, reverse, neutral, drive and you have your plus and minus.
02:51 Then over here, you have your charging point, a USB point on the right and a fast charger on the left.
02:57 So the driver's seat of the car, that's where I'm currently seated right now.
03:00 It has a four-way, which means you can move it back, front and you can move it up and down as well.
03:07 Of course that, on your infotainment screen, you can also see the 360-degree camera
03:13 and the blind view monitor.
03:14 These are super cool features on the new Sonet.
03:17 So in the interior, we have five colour options, which are black and beige, black and brown,
03:23 black and a sporty white, which is what we have right here, the white and the black
03:28 and we also have a black with a sage green.
03:30 Now the black with the sage green would be a really, really nice colour scheme to have inside the Kia Sonet.
03:36 So this is pretty much the whole interior of the car.
03:39 Then it also comes with a sunroof over here, which can be opened and closed
03:44 and to open the sunroof, your controls are right here.
03:47 Press it, that's the small part of the sunroof opening
03:51 and to close it, you just press the button back down and it closes for you.
03:55 So that is it. Then on your rear-view mirror, so it has SOS, Kia Connect and an emergency service over there.
04:03 Now this is the rear sense of the car and this is the 360-degree view of it.
04:08 So as you come to the boot of the car, here is where you open it from here.
04:15 So it comes with 385 litres of boot space, which is really, really good for a car
04:20 and underneath this is where your stepney and everything is located.
04:25 So that's where your stepney is located. Here you have another Sonet badging.
04:30 And so this is the boot of the car and let's look at the cameras and the sensors.
04:36 So you have one camera located at the back, a few sensors at the rear as well.
04:41 And on the side of the car, we have a camera underneath the ORVM for the 360-degree camera
04:50 and the ORVM has this really nice piano black finish as you can see over there
04:54 and with these really nice integrated sleek indicators.
04:58 And at the front, we have sensors all throughout the bumper
05:03 and we have a camera located right here. Coming to the safety features of this.
05:08 So the top variant comes with 25 safety features, which include 10 ADAS functions
05:14 and 15 standard safety features. So the regular variants come with the 15 standard safety features,
05:20 but some of the ADAS features that we have in the premium variant are the front collision warning.
05:25 So that will be through these sensors over here. On top of that,
05:29 it comes with a lane keep assist, lane departure warning, driver attention warning and a whole lot of others.
05:34 So some of the standard safety features that we have are your electronic stability control,
05:39 hill ascent control, speed sensing auto door lock and a host of other features also.
05:47 Then inside the car, you can control your windows through a remote or through the regular buttons located inside.
05:54 And it also comes with six airbags as a standard.
05:59 Now that is a really, really big leap in terms of safety for the Kia Sonet.
06:03 So this variant of the Kia Sonet, as you can see, is the turbo petrol engine.
06:08 Now this engine produces 117 bhp and 170 Newton meters of torque.
06:12 Now that is super, super impressive. Now the naturally aspirated version of this produces 82 bhp
06:18 and 150 Newton meters of torque and that's through a 1.2 litre engine.
06:22 Now the diesel variant of this has a 1.5 litre engine
06:26 and that produces a whopping 114 bhp and 250 Newton meters of torque.
06:33 Now the torque on that would really be felt when you just gun the accelerator.
06:38 Now these are the three engine variants you get on the new Kia Sonet facelift.
06:42 Now on top of that, you get a various amount of trims.
06:45 You get the HTE, HTK, HTK+, HTX, HTX+, GTX+ and the X-Line trim.
06:53 Now we've seen these trims on the other variants of the other Kia models.
06:57 Now we've seen these trims on other models of the Kia Sonet as well.
07:01 So they haven't really changed the trims much except for they've done up,
07:05 they've changed a few external features and interior features of the car.
07:08 So looking at the rear of this car, the rear seats, again,
07:12 we have the same white and black dual tone finish, nice cup holders over here,
07:18 a white and black dual tone finish again and over here we have rear air vents,
07:23 charging ports at the back and here is your AQI, your air quality index sensor,
07:28 which you can also purify the air through here.
07:31 So it's smart pure air, virus protection and that power button is to switch it on and off.
07:36 Looking at this car also, we have a really nice dual tone finish outside with this
07:41 piano black finish on the top with this really nice red at the bottom.
07:46 So all in all, this was the Kia Sonet facelift.
