  • Compact Yet Practical

    The Sonet has been my city car for over a year in Sharjah, and honestly, it’s perfect if you don’t want something too big. Parking is super easy, which is a huge relief in crowded areas. The AC is very powerful – you start feeling the chill within minutes. The touchscreen system is fun to use, plus wireless charging is handy as I always forget cables. The engine is not super powerful, but for daily drives and family shopping trips, it does the job well. The boot space is surprisingly good for groceries and small luggage. For someone who wants a strong budget-friendly car with modern features, the Sonet ticks most boxes.

  • Quickest in its segment

    The main reason why I opted for the Mazda CX-30 is because it is the quickest in its segment. Even on twisty roads and broken pavements it feels very calm and composed. I often use the Sport mode to liven up the character of this car. The sporty tautness of the suspension sometimes makes the ride quality a bit harsh but the car is still quite adept at absorbing impacts and bumps. I especially find it ideal for freeway cruising. The cabin is very quiet giving it an upscale feeling. The heated seats require some time to warm up but once they get heated they feel nicely toasty.
