4.2-Inch Mono TFT LCD Screen

DRIVE WITH CONFIDENCE

Unmatched Safety Features

6 airbags and remarkable rigidity*

The new Kia Sonet is equipped with a comprehensive 6-airbag SRS system for enhanced occupant protection. Its body structure incorporates high-strength steel throughout, helping to increase rigidity, absorb and redirect impact forces, and safeguard both the cabin and everyone inside. (*EX and EX+ only)

Hill-start Assist Control (HAC)

When stopped on a slope, Hill-start Assist Control (HAC) temporarily holds the brake, giving you time to move your foot from the brake to the accelerator. This smart feature helps you pull away smoothly and safely without rolling backward, especially on steep inclines or in heavy traffic.

Parking Distance Warning (PDW)

Parking Distance Warning uses ultrasonic sensors mounted on the rear bumper to detect nearby obstacles. When you're reversing or maneuvering into tight spaces, the system alerts you with audible warnings, helping you park more accurately and avoid potential bumps or scrapes.
