Come on bro....aap kuon hurt hoo gayay itna.....

My apologies....aap kai baray mein kuch naheen kaha......KIA and Pakwheels pai articles dosri websites sai copy karnain sai mana kiya.....lets stick to Pakhwheels and Stonic please....if u have anything in favour of the mini CUV please speak up,,,,,

But two things are a fact :-

(a) Stonic is overpriced.....the most reputable Pakwheels blogger has even said that....and all my other fellow Pakwheelers too....
(b) Pakwheels should stop copying articles and specially Mr Salman and Ms Summan should be censured for that.

KIA LUCKY SHOULD PRICE THE CAR SENSEABLY.

my apologies and best regards to you..

I agree

I requested if some one can compare the Stonic with vitz

Because 1 thing I know for sure that rear space in vitz is more than juke. And Stonic seems in same league as juke

STONIC planned launch delayed because of the TLP protest. Some display vehicles can't reach dealerships.
Now planned between 5th to 10th November.

The only useful thing on PakWheels is the forum and the used car section. Their expert reviews are horrible, riddled with factual errors and lack of basic information. The blog section is, for lack of a better word, utter sh*t. The problem is that the guy sitting at the top, mister Munj sahb, himself is fairly clueless about automobiles in general (evident from his reviews). So there’s no real check and balance on the editorial portion of this website.

In the latest blog the price is again touted to be from 3.5 to 4 mils. May be different authors have different perspective of the vehicle , yet the main man suneel munj also said that it would be b/w 3.5 and 4.

Kia Stonic on they way to dealerships of Punjab

Due to the unavailability of CKD kits and expected price revision kia delayed the launch of #stonic in #Pakistan
The car is compact but fully loaded with features and directly hit the sedans.

KIA Stonic, dealer confrence is on November 5th. Most probably we will have official specifications the same day. Public reveal will be soon after.

ali_abid (ali_abid) 2021-11-03 11:53:57 +0500 #310

I believe it was planned for last week.

fazalwahab11375 (fazalwahab11375) 2021-11-03 15:56:46 +0500 #311

Yes it was BUT because of TLP protest and road closures, many display vehicles were stuck which are now on their way for a public reveal within days.

Wow new logo in interior too!

The package looks good, however, it all comes down to the pricing!

zeeshan_awan77 (zeeshan_awan77) 2021-11-03 22:54:52 +0500 #314

Now seriously doubt the EX plus variant will be over 3.8 M for sure.

fazalwahab11375 (fazalwahab11375) 2021-11-04 07:04:05 +0500 #315

Sonic globally comes with Torsion beam on the rear standard on all versions and variants BUT the PK bound Stonic spec sheet calls of Multi-Link; it seems this is an error and an official clarification will be required.

At last curtain airbags in mass consumer class vehicle in pakistan. This will ultimately pull other car makers to add more airbags to their paltry 2 airbags lineup.

A good package overall - Aircon automatic means climate control?

It has all the features of city/yaris plus extra safety and sunroof.

Extra features in plus variant

Leather wrapped steering
4.2 inch cluster
Leather wrapped gear knob
Electromatic mirror
Two tone interior
Fabric + leather seats
Smart key with Push
Parking sensors forward + reverse
Cruise control
Manual speed limit assist
Rear view camera
16 inch alloys
sun roof
roof rack
LED head and read lamp

Seems like there will be a huge price difference for these features. Like at least 2-3 lacs

These Brochures are for PK Launch?

fazalwahab11375 (fazalwahab11375) 2021-11-04 10:00:19 +0500 #319

Yes it is the official brochure for PK Domestic model.

hassannabeel27 (hassannabeel27) 2021-11-04 14:33:54 +0500 #320

City top of the line is 32 lac. I am expecting EX Stonic around 32.5 and EX+ around 35.5. Anything above would move them in competition with Altis 1.6
