Powertrain
1.0L Smartstream T-GDi Turbo Petrol: The keen one: strong mid-range punch, a proper clutchless iMT for three pedals' feel minus the legwork, or the quick 7DCT

What the HTX Turbo Petrol AT costs on the road
The price above is ex-showroom. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the HTX Turbo Petrol AT comes to ₹12,31,480 on the road in Itanagar and ₹14,18,953 in Bengaluru.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹1,87,473 of what you pay for the identical car. Of the 25 states we can price this variant in, Arunachal Pradesh comes out lowest and Karnataka highest. You pay it where you live, so take this as a reason to check the quote you were given, not as a way to save money.
Comprehensive own-damage cover is on top of both figures: it has been market-priced since 2007 and moves with the insurer, the cover value and your no-claim bonus, so no honest single number exists for it. Budget for it from real quotes.

The full story
At ₹11.75L ex-showroom this is the 18th of 23 Sonet variants by price, ₹24,000 above the HTX Diesel MT. The same HTX features start at ₹24,000 less as the HTX Diesel MT; the extra here buys the Turbo Petrol with the 7-speed dual-clutch auto (dca). Stepping up to GTX+ from here starts at ₹1.91L more and buys 360° camera and blind spot monitor among 10 additions, though it gives up wireless CarPlay / Android Auto.

The gadget step: cruise, all-disc brakes, the air purifier, and ventilated seats on the automatics.
Kia Sonet HTX: the questions people ask
Price, on-road total, engine and what this trim goes without.
- What is the price of the Kia Sonet HTX Turbo Petrol AT?
- ₹11.75L, ex-showroom. That makes it 18th of 23 by price, ₹24,000 above the HTX Diesel MT.
- What is the on-road price of the Kia Sonet HTX Turbo Petrol AT?
- Expect ₹12,31,480 in Itanagar and ₹14,18,953 in Bengaluru. Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so the identical car costs ₹1,87,473 more at one end of the country than the other. That is the ex-showroom price plus road tax, registration and the rest of the charges, across the 25 states we have verified. It does not include comprehensive own-damage cover, which every insurer prices differently.
- Which engine and gearbox does the Kia Sonet HTX Turbo Petrol AT have?
- The Turbo Petrol, 120 PS, with the 7-speed dual-clutch auto (DCA).
- What features does the Kia Sonet HTX Turbo Petrol AT get?
- The features worth naming on this trim: All-wheel disc brakes, Ventilated front seats, Cruise control, Powered driver seat (4-way), Drive modes and Terrain modes.
- What does the Kia Sonet HTX Turbo Petrol AT miss out on?
- The GTX+ above it adds 360° camera, blind spot monitor, level 1 ADAS, touchscreen (10.25" against 8") and 6 more, for ₹1.91L more. It would also cost you wireless CarPlay / Android Auto, so it is not purely a step up.
- Is the HTX the right Sonet to buy?
- That depends on where the value sits across the whole range rather than on this trim alone, and we work it out variant by variant on our Kia Sonet which-variant page. The short answer: pay for a step only where the features it adds are ones you would actually use.
