Captured it for size comparison.

What's with the price here

[fazalwahab11375]

It has frieght included at dealership destination

[rizla]

Looks like less height than Corolla and even Cultus. People were comparing it to Nissan Juke in terms of segment but Juke gives you a crossover feel, yeh tou mazaak hai. I wish KIA had invested into Seltos instead. It would have been great competition for Corolla and Civic. Can't understand the logic other than that they got the assembly line at a discount because Stonic flopped and was discontinued in South Korea.

[darthvader]

Yeah because an Elantra has proven to really hit the sales of Civic and Corolla hard. The wisest decision any new auto company can make in Pakistan is to not compete against Corolla and Civic.

Backseats are too cramped

Visited Kia last evening...

On the whole good package but way way over priced...

Kia has made us feel that actually Honda priced City much lower than the market trends ... and Toyota is literally offering Yaris at throwaway prices even after the price increase...

[rizla]

Elantra should have been priced below Civic/Corolla, have mentioned that on Elantra thread many times. Also if they had launched the latest generation than sales of Civic would definitely be impacted. Even with the current price point the car is slowly making its market here, but it is not hitting Corolla or Civic.

Its best time for nishat to decrease elantras price by 1 lac.

[pwuser15093809934]

MG Pakistan for the ZS, should also lower their prices

[pwuser15093809934]

Surprising Stonic is lower than Corolla ,what about Yaris i wonder

Dimensions
KIA Stonic is 4140mm Long, 1760mm Wide and 1500mm High with 2580mm Wheelbase. Meanwhile, Corolla is 4620mm Long, 1775mm Wide and 1475mm High with a 2700 Wheelbase, and Civic has 4630mm Length, 1799mm Width and 1433mm Height with 2700mm Wheelbase.

Lastly, the Ground Clearance of the Stonic is 165mm, compared to 175mm in Corolla and 153mm in Civic. The numbers show that Corolla and Civic are wider and longer; however, Stonic is higher in comparison. Meanwhile, Civic has the lowest Ground Clearance among these vehicles

It's already noticeably cheaper than a Grande or 1.8 Oriel. In fact it's priced similar to an Altis 1.6 SE.

KIA Stonic over MG ZS:
* Arm rest
* Front + Back parking sensors
* Sun roof
* Sun glasses holder
* Front + Back LED lights
* Push Start
* Retractable mirrors
* Automatic climate control
* Better fuel average
* Two tone interior

All above features are missing in ZS. Where as ZS is much spacious than Stonic and actually looks like SUV.
Choice is yours.

[fazalwahab11375]

ZS has rear parking sensors as well as 6 airbags.

[osamabinishrat]

That was the point. ZS only has rear parking sensors where stonic has both Front and Rear.

[hassannabeel27]

Where as ZS is much spacious than Stonic

Thats the selling point for SUV. Stonic just like advertised is for city use only. Backseats are not suitable for long drives

[engineerjibran]

Not to forget that zs is cbu , stonic cbu is 57 lac.

[osamabinishrat]

That's actually a good point though.

[pwuser15093809934]

[pwuser15093809934]

The price advantage is over in the comparison list ,new price list Honda Pakistan,civic CVT 1.8L is 3,796,000/ now.

[rizla]

Since when does Civic have a full colour MID? And what is with these silly comparison lists anyway, they are always tailored to reflect better on one car. For example, Stonic has 'hi grade fabric' seat material and Civic is just fabric. That is just marketing speak, lol.
