The festive months have always been crucial for car sales in India, and this year, Kia has won the show, as the company’s compact SUV, the Sonet, led the charge with 12,745 units sold, which is its best-ever monthly performance since launch. This compact SUC is known for its bold looks, feature-rich interior and efficient engine. The Sonet continues to be a favorite among young urban buyers.
Following closely is the Carens Clavis and its electric sibling, the Carens Clavis EV,
which together contributed 8,779 units to the success. The Carens Clavis EV, which is Kia’s first made-in-India, 7-seater mass-premium electric vehicle has drawn strong attention for combining practicality, performance and eco-friendly mobility, showing that Indian families are ready to adopt electric SUVs.
