Explained: Kia Sonet variants, features and colour options

Here's a detailed look at the features and colour options for each of the six variants of the upcoming Kia Sonet. 

The Kia Sonet is all set for its market launch on Friday, the 18th of September. We’ve brought you our extensive first-drive reports of the petrol IMT and diesel automatic models. And since we were driving the top-end GTX+ variants, we got a taste of the top-of-the-line variant, which comes complete with a range of segment-first features, such as ventilated front seats and a 10.25-inch infotainment system. So, you got a chance to see just how good it looks, especially with the sporty red accents all around the exterior and interior.

But what about all of the other entry-level and mid-spec variants? What will they be like in terms of looks, safety features, and equipment?
