Kia Sonet was launched a few weeks ago and instantly became one of the top-selling compact SUVs. Its aggressive design and price factor along with the multiple engine options and features makes this a right fit for the Indian market. However, this specific dark edition Kia Sonet receives a tasteful modification and now looks badass.
Before we go any further and explain to you what is the total cost and the list of mods this Kia Sonet Dark Edition gets, make sure you are a member of our exclusive 91Wheels Whatsapp group where we discuss about the Indian automotive industry and bring to you latest news.
This Sonet belongs to Mr Akshaya and sharing more details then it receives a satin black vinyl wrap. Yes, the original Aurora Black Pearl with its metallic nature gives a shiner look but the wrap brings out the original rawness, stealth is the right word we think.

The SUV has been dechromed and sees blacked-out design. To contrast the elements, the body gets finished in the satin black wrap while the elements like the front grille, fog light housing assembly, both front and rear diffuser, roof rails and the area near the rear windshield receives piano black wrap. The alloy wheels also are in piano black finish.
For those asking, this is a brand new car and as you can see it does not even have a permanent registration plate. It gets 16-inch aftermarket alloy wheels and they gel well with the compact SUV. In our opinion, this badass Sonet looks good but with a little tint on the taillights would have brought out a more raw design. Overall, we think it is the best looking Sonet to date.
