| ![]() Seems to be wind noise to me too and its in the ORVM area. I find the noise annoying and I seem to hear it even with reasonably loud music being played. Do you know what can be done in order to fix it? |

| ![]() The noise isn't audible below 80-100 for me so never really looked at it as a problem that needed solving. |

| ![]() Some have been asking about waiting period for Kia Sonet. Below is information form a Bengaluru based dealership. The picture quality might be poor. Sharing it as received. Hopefully helps prospective buyers. ![]() |

However, two things have happened since then. There are varying versions of this same document floating around on the various KIA Sonet owners/booking groups on Facebook. While the quality of discussion in these groups is nil, it gives a much better vibe as to what the larger percent of the car's bookers/owners are going through. In those documents, the waiting time is much higher to what the SR showed me. Also, I had asked for an update on the availability of my car this Monday. This was before my upgrade to HTX, so the older waiting period should have been applicable - the amount of time I waited. But I got a mail saying my revised waiting period is 10-12 weeks from the time of the mail they sent. I'm pretty sure I won't see my car until it's March/April. They're also closing the factory for a few days for Christmas apparently. KIA have dropped the ball on delivery... there's also allegations they're pushing all deliveries to 2021 so as to take advantage of the increased car price. | |

<email quote> "Greetings from NAARA KIA!! Thank you for booking KIA SONET with us. We would like to inform you that we are committed towards delivering your dream Car at the earliest. However, the delivery of your car may take longer than expected. The revised tentative waiting period for your booking is around 11-12 weeks." </email quote> This seems to be in-line with your experience, even though I didn't change my booking or did anything to disrubt the original commitment against my booking. | |

I still can't believe Kia underestimated their demand to such an extent. The only reason I am not changing my decision is because we fell in love with the vehicle. This was the one car that clicked for both myself and my wife after looking at EcoSport, Venue, XUV 300 and the ilk. | |

| ![]() It’s a myth that the higher spec cars are available faster as I booked the GTX+ AT 6Speed Dual Colour White and Black which is the most expensive of them all on 11 August and I am still awaiting delivery. After raising complaints to Kia on waiting period they send a mail to me on 14th December stating my revised waiting period is 7 to 8 Weeks. My SA told me that they don’t expect any deliveries in December. Would have got an earlier delivery if I was not adamant about colour they did call me multiple times that a different colour was available. But since I am going to pay over 15 Lakhs did not want to compromise and later regret. Now I am seriously considering changing my decision to a Nissan Kicks 1.3 Turbo just 80K more and I do get a bigger car and felt better back seat comfort than Sonet. But I need a smaller car for city drivability and ease of parking so still hanging on to the Kia booking and looking at what the price increase would be. |

| ![]() Came across this post on Facebook. Though it is inline with all companies hiking prices, the word substantial increase looks worrisome. ![]() |

I called the SA today asking about the waiting period, he didn't get back. The sales experience is terrible, but I guess that's how it is when you buy a popular car. | |
