Its bold dimensions, signature Tiger-nose grille, and class-leading 205mm ground clearance provide a strong SUV presence. Higher-end variants feature premium elements such as LED lighting, an electric sunroof, and sleek two-tone alloy wheels.
Inside, the Sonet’s cabin strikes a balance between comfort and practicality. Top-of-the-line trims offer luxurious leather seats, while all variants come equipped with spacious seating for five passengers. Convenience features like driver’s seat pockets, 60:40 split-folding rear seats, and multiple USB ports, including USB-C, cater to the needs of modern drivers.
