Kia India has officially teased the X Line version of the Sonet on its social media handles. The new 2022 Kia Sonet X Line is expected to be launched in India soon. It will be the range-topping variant in this sub-compact SUV’s line-up and will get a bunch of cosmetic updates. The Sonet will be the second Kia car in India after the Seltos to be available in an X Line avatar.
Talking about the changes, one can expect the Kia Sonet X Line to get some major cosmetic overhaul. For instance, it should get the ‘Xclusive Matte Graphite’ paint scheme, just like the Seltos, and this will make it the first car in its segment to get a matte paint finish right from the factory. Some other updates will include subtle orange accents, X Line badging, updated alloy wheels, and more.
