In this article, we share the list of features that you get in the Kia Sonet over the Nissan Magnite.

1. Side Airbags

While both the Sonet and Magnite get front and airbags, the Sonet offers side thorax and curtain airbags in its top variant as well. It is worth noting that the Global NCAP awarded the Nissan Magnite a 4-star rating while they are yet to test the Sonet.

2. Auto-Dimming IRVM

The Sonet comes with an auto-dimming inside rearview mirror whereas the Magnite gets a manually-adjustable day/night IRVM. Auto-dimming IRVM reduces glare while diving in the night without having to make any adjustments manually. Furthermore, the Sonet also incorporates SOS and telematics shortcuts on the IRVM.
