Review: 2024 Kia Sonet 1.5 SX
I’d be the first to admit: there’s nothing exciting when it comes to sub-compact SUVs. Often, people buy them for their utility; as a means of getting around from point A to point B, nothing more. Suffice to say, they do their job, and they do it very well. Filipinos seem to love them and they make up the fastest growing segment of the auto market in the past five years or so. Any mainstream brand should compete in this segment if they want to make any sort of impression market share-wise.
