It is built on the Hyundai-Kia GB platform and is a front-engine, front-wheel-drive SUV that offers various engine options. Unfortunately, the Kia Stonic was discontinued from the South Korean automobile markets in 2020 due to poor sales. Kia Motors bring Kia Stonic to Pakistan in collaboration with Lucky Motors. Kia Motors Pakistan imported three Kia Stonics in Pakistan to do several road tests on it to be locally assembled here and it’s been launched after thorough testing.

Engine, Power & Transmission Pakistan:

Both Variants of the Kia Stonic are available with four different engine options;

  • 1.4 liters MPi engine that generates 98 horsepower with 133 nm of torque and the engine is mated with six-speed automatic transmission in both variants.
  • 1.2 MPI Petrol Engine Generates 82 Horsepower @ 6000rpm with Maximum Torque of 12.4/4,000 Mated with 5-speed Manual Transmission.
  • 1.0 T-GDi Diesel Engine Generates 118 HP @ 6000rpm with Maximum Torque of 17.5/1,500~4,000 Mated with 6 Speed Automatic Transmission.
  • 1.6 CRDi Diesel Engine Generates 108HP @ 4000rpm with Maximum Torque of 26.5/1,500~2,750 Mated with 6 speed Manual Transmission.

Performance & Drive:

All engines of Kia Stonic deliver efficient performance. Still, if we specifically talk about the 1,4 liters dual CVVT engine, it gives you high performance and efficiency, mated with 6-speed automatic transmission. The 1.0 liters turbocharged engine is the real star no doubt as it spools up quickly and delivers fuel economy similar to a diesel-powered engine. On the whole, Kia Stonic offers a firm suspension that allows you to turn the vehicle around curves and corners with minimum body roll. You may feel a bit of nibbling on the wheels while turning, but it doesn’t affect the quality of the ride. The steering is light-weighted, and the car doesn’t seem nervous, so you can enjoy comfortable handling to give you a comfortable ride. Although it is an SUV, it is not available in the all-wheel-drive feature. The acceleration of the Kia Stonic is remarkable, and its 1.0 liters petrol-powered engine takes 10.4 seconds to sprint from 0 to 60 miles per hour while the 1.4 liters engine car takes 12.2 seconds to accelerate from 0 to 60 miles per hour. The Kia Stonic has a responsive engine, and it settles down at cruising speed in 2nd or 3rd gears. The transmission is smooth, and the gearbox is speedy, requiring less effort from the drivers. The diesel engine is quite economical, and it requires more pulling power than the standard petrol engines. The diesel engine takes 10.5 seconds to accelerate from 0 to 60 miles per hour. It offers you great practicality and can be used for everyday tasks or even for small off-road adventures. Still, the off-road driving ability of the Kia Stonic is not much exceptional as other SUVs.

Exterior Design & Features:

Kia Stonic has an attractive exterior body with an eye-catching tiger-nose grille on the front and sleek projector-type halogen headlamps. The LED daytime running lights assist in driving in all conditions, and the rear end has a traditional SUV style. The rear combination lamps look equally beautiful, and the tailgate is power-controlled. The crossover styling is displayed with an increased height, and the roof rails are seen on its exterior. Kia logos are stamped on the front and rear end of the car, imposing a bold stance, while the sportiness of Stonic is enhanced with its 16-inches alloy wheels.

Interior Design & Features:

The inside of the Kia Stonic gives you both comfort and style. It offers two rows of seats with leather upholstery and provides a seating capacity of five adults. The rear seats are folded easily to increase the space in the cabin for transporting goods or luggage. The steering wheel is multi-functional, so its features are just one button away from the driver, increasing his convenience. It has a 3.5 inches TFT LCD multi-functional screen that works as an instrument panel and assists the drivers by giving them basic vehicle information. You are also given a USB port and a 12V socket for charging your mobile phones. Single-zone automatic climate control feature controls the temperature inside the cabin in comfortable ranges. There is an 8-inch touchscreen display mounted on the dashboard that gives you infotainment and is compatible with Android Auto and Apple Car play interface. A total of six speakers are offered inside the cabin which offers you good quality sound, and the Smart Entry and Push-Start Button further ease you in starting the car.

Safety & Features:

As the Safety ratings of the Kia Stonic are not much appreciated and have received only 3-star ratings by Euro NCAP (New Car Assessment Program) but provide various safety features. Some of them are as follows:

  • 6 Airbags
  • Hill Start Assist Control
  • Electronic Stability Control
  • Rear Camera (EX+)
  • Forward Collision Warning alarm (EX+)
