I’m a first-time buyer and saving up for a new car. I prefer fully-loaded variants and have shortlisted two options — the Maruti Fronx 1.0 Turbo Alpha AT and the Kia Sonet GTX+ 1.0 Turbo DCT. My usage will be mostly personal, with daily city commuting and occasional highway road trips. I plan to register the car under the BH series. Which one should I go for?

CarBikeGPT says: Between the two, the Kia Sonet GTX+ 1.0 Turbo DCT is the better pick. While the Fronx Turbo offers good styling and a refined drive, the Sonet holds an edge in key areas that matter for a first-time buyer looking for a top-spec automatic crossover.
If you’re saving for a top-end automatic and want something that feels premium, powerful, and future-proof Choose the Kia Sonet GTX+ 1.0 Turbo DCT.
For city-focused users who prioritize efficiency, low maintenance, and lighter driving:
The Maruti Fronx 1.0 Turbo Alpha AT is still worth considering.
