As mentioned earlier, this new variant sits above the GT and is placed atop the current top variant GTX+ 1.0 T-GDi with 7DCT and 1.5-litre CRDi with 6AT. Hence, unlike other lower variants, the Sonet with this variant is only available with the 7-speed DCT automatic with paddle shifters along with the 1.0l turbo petrol engine while the 1.5l diesel with the 6-speed automatic is also there.

The Sonet is of course the only one offering the combination of diesel and an automatic in this segment.

The Seltos already offers the X-LIne and the Sonet now also gets this trim while bookings have started. The equipment levels are unchanged and it continues to get features like a sunroof, drive modes, front/rear parking sensors, six airbags, ventilated seats and more.

The Sonet continues to rival the likes of the Hyundai Venue, Tata Nexon and Maruti Brezza/ Toyota Urban Cruiser too.
