Hyundai Exter Vs Kia Sonet – Expected Engine Specs Comparison
In this Exter vs Sonet (expected) engine spec comparison, we’ll try to find out which car excels in what aspects of the engine specs. Hyundai have recently confirmed that they are soon going to bring the new Exter SUV. The Exter is more likely to compete with affordable small SUVs like the Maruti Suzuki Nexa Fronx, Renault Kiger, Citroen C3, Nissan Magnite and Tata Punch. But, because of the potentially overlapping price band, we think it could sway buyers away from as well as towards the Kia Sonet. Here, we hope this Sonet vs Exter engine spec comparison helps you with deciding if you should wait for the upcoming Exter or go ahead with booking the Kia Sonet. Let’s start with the normal petrol engine comparison.
Kia Sonet Vs Hyundai Exter – Normal Petrol Engine Spec Comparison (Expected)
The Sonet also gets the same 1.2L normal petrol engine, which is available in other Hyundai cars, but with a slightly different tuning. Therefore, it makes 1Nm better torque than the engine, which is likely to end up in the Exter. However, the Exter is likely to maintain an upper hand with a slightly better mileage figure and the option of an automatic transmission.

Hyundai Exter Vs Kia Sonet – Turbo Petrol Engine Spec Comparison (Expected)
With the turbo petrol engine too, the Exter and Sonet are likely to share the engine and transmission options. If the Exter maintains the 120PS power spec with 6-speed auto-clutch manual transmission, then the Sonet and Exter could very well have near-identical engine specifications. The slightly smaller dimensions could help the Exter deliver better mileage than the larger and heavier Sonet.
