Earlier this year, KIA introduced a brand new smart, urban, compact SUV into the burgeoning B-SUV segment to South Africa - that's KIA's words, not mine. The compact SUV has set tongues wagging thanks to its trendy styling, high level of standard equipment and very attractive price. We've spent time with the model and can attest to its wonderful nature and practical design. you'd be foolish not to be considering a new KIA Sonet.
