It basically comes with a 1.2-litre turbo petrol and 1.5-litre turbo diesel engine options. The turbo petrol variants of Nexon are paired with manual, AMT, and 7-speed Dual Clutch Transmission options whereas the diesel variants come with both manual and automatic transmission options. The CNG Tata Nexon variants are only available with the manual transmission whereas an all-electric variant of Nexon has also been launched in recent years.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kia Sonet is another car that has managed to sustain the tough competition in the compact SUV segment. It comes with a 1.2-litre NA petrol, 1.0-litre turbo petrol, and 1.5-litre diesel engine. The NA petrol models of Sonet are paired with the manual transmission only whereas the turbo petrol variants offer iMT and DCT transmission options. The diesel variants of Nexon offer both manual and automatic transmission options. In this blog, we will compare Tata Nexon vs Kia Sonet models on the basis of their ARAI claims and real-world mileage figures to determine the more fuel-efficient car among the two.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-rank-math-toc-block\" id=\"rank-math-toc\"><h2>Table of Contents<\/h2><nav><ul><li><a href=\"#tata-nexon-vs-kia-sonet-specs\">Tata Nexon vs Kia Sonet: Specs\u00a0<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#tata-nexon-vs-kia-sonet-claimed-arai-mileage\">Tata Nexon vs Kia Sonet: Claimed ARAI Mileage\u00a0<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#tata-nexon-vs-kia-sonet-real-world-mileage\">Tata Nexon vs Kia Sonet: Real-World Mileage\u00a0<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#tata-nexon-vs-kia-sonet-periodic-fuel-cost-comparison\">Tata Nexon vs Kia Sonet: Periodic Fuel-Cost Comparison\u00a0<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#tata-nexon-vs-kia-sonet-price\">Tata Nexon vs Kia Sonet: Price\u00a0<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#summary\">Summary\u00a0<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#fa-qs-about\">FAQs\u00a0About Tata Nexon vs Kia Sonet Mileage<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"tata-nexon-vs-kia-sonet-specs\"><strong>Tata Nexon vs Kia Sonet: Specs <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before comparing Nexon and Sonet on the basis of their fuel-efficiency, let\u2019s compare their specifications and see if they would impact their real-world mileage.

When it comes to the turbo petrol variants, we can compare the AMT and 7-speed DCT variants of both these cars as Sonet does not offer the turbo petrol + manual powertrain. Here, Kia Sonet claims a much higher mileage than Tata Nexon.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to the diesel variants, the manual models of Kia Sonet claim a slightly higher mileage than the diesel manual variants of Nexon. However, Nexon claims a much higher mileage than Sonet variants when it comes to diesel automatic models. Nexon is available with CNG + manual powertrain which is missing in Sonet. So, it is futile comparing the claimed mileage of this car in this segment.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Summary:<\/strong> When it comes to turbo petrol models, Sonet claims a higher mileage than Nexon. However, when it comes to diesel variants, the automatic models of Nexon claim the highest mileage.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\r\n    <style>\r\n        .sp-card-wrapper { \r\n            margin: 40px auto; \r\n            border-radius: 20px; \r\n            overflow: hidden; \r\n            font-family: sans-serif; \r\n            background: #fff; \r\n            box-shadow: 0 15px 40px rgba(0,0,0,0.18); \r\n            max-width: 700px; \/* Narrower width makes the stack feel tighter *\/\r\n            text-decoration: none;\r\n            display: block;\r\n            width: 100%;\r\n        }\r\n        .sp-img-container { \r\n            width: 100%; \r\n            position: relative;\r\n            padding-top: 56.25%; \/* Fixed 16:9 ratio for a cinematic feel *\/\r\n            background: #f4f4f4;\r\n        }\r\n        .sp-img-container img {\r\n            position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; object-fit: cover;\r\n        }\r\n        .sp-footer { \r\n            padding: 30px; \r\n            background: #2e054e; \r\n            color: #fff !important; \r\n            text-align: center; \/* Centered layout for the stack *\/\r\n            display: flex;\r\n            flex-direction: column;\r\n            align-items: center;\r\n            gap: 15px;\r\n        }\r\n        .sp-card-title { \r\n            font-size: clamp(28px, 5vw, 42px); \/* Much larger, prominent name *\/\r\n            margin: 0; \r\n            font-weight: 800; \r\n            color: #fff !important; \r\n            line-height: 1.1;\r\n            letter-spacing: -1px;\r\n        }\r\n        .sp-btn { \r\n            background: #ed264f; \r\n            padding: 18px 40px; \r\n            border-radius: 10px; \r\n            font-weight: 900; \r\n            color: #fff !important; \r\n            font-size: 16px; \r\n            text-transform: uppercase; \r\n            letter-spacing: 1px; \r\n            width: 100%;\r\n            max-width: 300px; \/* Prevents button from being too wide on desktop *\/\r\n            box-sizing: border-box;\r\n            box-shadow: 0 4px 15px rgba(237, 38, 79, 0.3);\r\n        }\r\n    <\/style>\r\n\r\n    <a href='https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/used-nexon-cars\/s\/?utm_source=NexonVsSonetMileage&utm_medium=BlogCard' target='_blank' class='sp-card-wrapper'>\r\n        <div class='sp-img-container'>\r\n            <img src='https:\/\/mda.spinny.com\/sp-file-system\/public\/2026-04-12\/e655c3ada0764f0db3c9759a70a22e63\/raw\/file.JPG?q=85&#038;w=900&#038;dpr=0.8' alt='Used Tata Nexon Cars'>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n        \r\n        <div class='sp-footer'>\r\n            <h3 class='sp-card-title'>Used Tata Nexon Cars<\/h3>\r\n            <div style='margin-bottom: 5px;'>\r\n                        <div style='font-size: 12px; opacity: 0.8; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 0.5px;'>Starting From<\/div>\r\n                        <div style='font-size: clamp(24px, 4vw, 32px); font-weight: 800;'>\u20b9 4 Lakh<\/div>\r\n                      <\/div>\r\n            <div class='sp-btn'>Explore Pre-Owned Cars<\/div>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n    <\/a>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"tata-nexon-vs-kia-sonet-real-world-mileage\"><strong>Tata Nexon vs Kia Sonet: Real-World Mileage <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The real-world mileage depends on factors such as your driving style, road conditions, variant, transmission, and other factors.

The NA petrol models of Sonet offer an overall higher mileage when we compare the petrol models. However, as the NA engine is not offered by Nexon, comparing them directly is not possible. The same goes with the CNG models as Sonet does not offer the petrol + CNG option.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, we cannot determine a clear winner after comparing the real-world mileage figures of both these cars.

For the sake of comparison, we will consider that both cars run 1500 km approximately every month. The standard petrol (Rs. 111.18), diesel (Rs. 97.83) and CNG (Rs. 88) are taken while calculating the fuel costs.
