We just got a 2024 Stonic. You have perfectly articulated everything to the point. I also don't like all the fakery going around with car designs nowadays. The pretentiousness, it's cringey. Back to the Stonic, I love the simplicity and the stiffness of everything: the suspension, the stick, the steering wheel. I feel safer.
Another awesome review sir, thanks. I've been looking into Stonic these days and I'm now decided to try it out. Will schedule a test drive with Kia in the coming days. I've seen your other car reviews like the Kia Soluto and told myself that I'd subscribe if I see another good car review content. I've subscribed now.
I agree that sometimes not going for all the bells and whistles might be good for a variety of reasons Sir Wes, but I'm really wishing I had smart entry when my hands are full and I want to get back in the car and wish I had android auto to better deal with working and commuting. It also grinds my gears to see people have these features and religiously not use them.
I drove the stonic for test drive because of your review, but it still have same bodyroll like any other torsion beam rear suspension with 185 ground clearance!!! 😅😅😅😅
