Kia Sonet was one of the most anticipated car launches in India. The sub-compact SUV segment is wildly popular now, and Kia did not disappoint. The company made the car feature-rich and aggressive in looks. Find out below about India’s first modified Kia Sonet which can also be called the Black Devil.

Black is a colour which signifies mystery and depth. And this blacked out matte Kia Sonet is an eye-catching delight. Believe us, it will always turn heads. People familiar with the DC universe may think the car out of a Batman movie.

The owner of this car knew his cars and parts and used a 16’’ inch GTR Pro Alloys, Satin Black Avery Dennison Full body wrap and full gloss black paint to all the silver and chrome accents. The end result is that you get a mean looking car.

One of the downsides of the black colour is that it makes the car looks a little slimmer/smaller.  The car is also a delight to drive and look at night.  Tata has also adopted a similar style strategy for their upcoming Dark edition cars.

Varied engine and transmission options enable customers to pick their favourite ride according to personal needs. The same tactic was adopted by Hyundai Creta which proved to be quite successful.

Kia was the first company to reveal details about the new iMT transmission. Hyundai however took the market by storm by directly updating its Venue with an iMT transmission, becoming the first car in India. The clutchless transmission is fairly affordable and costs just Rs.20,000 to Rs.30,000 more over the conventional manual transmission. The Kia Sonet is available in both Tech and GT line.
