New Kia Stonic Price Starts at Rs 54.99 Lakh

A source report published on October 1, 2026 says the new Kia Stonic has arrived in Pakistan with bookings reportedly open and two trims priced at Rs 5,499,000 for the Turbo X and Rs 5,899,000 for the Turbo S. That’s the headline number, but it’s only the reported vehicle price, not a full on-road invoice, so buyers should still confirm booking amount, taxes, registration, insurance, freight, and dealer charges before paying anyone.

What are the reported Kia Stonic prices?

According to the source report, the two reported variants are priced like this:

That means the reported gap between the two trims is Rs 400,000. The report says bookings were open for both variants on October 1, 2026, but it does not confirm the booking amount, delivery time, or whether the same price applies in every city.

So if you’re a buyer sitting around the Rs 55 to 59 lakh mark, this is the first thing to know: the sticker price is only part of the bill. The final number at the showroom can move once taxes, registration, insurance, and other dealer costs are added.

What has changed on the redesigned Stonic?

The source report describes this as the second facelift of the first-generation Stonic. In simple words, that means Kia has updated an already existing model again, instead of launching a brand-new body.

The reported design changes include:

• Star Map lighting

• Vertical LED headlights

• C-shaped taillights

• Revised front and rear bumpers

• A more EV-like design direction

• Dual panoramic screens

• Touch-sensitive controls

That sounds more modern, and for many Pakistani buyers, that matters. People in this price range do look at cabin feel and road presence. But we should keep one thing clear: these are reported design details, not yet a full local equipment sheet for both trims.

What engine and size does the report mention?

The report says the Pakistan Stonic is powered by a 1.0-litre Turbo GDI petrol engine. GDI means gasoline direct injection, which is a fuel delivery system that sprays fuel directly into the engine for better control. It is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, or DCT, which shifts gears with two clutches for quicker changes. The car is front-wheel drive, meaning power goes to the front wheels only.

Reported specs also include:

• 99 hp power

• 172 Nm torque

• 4,165 x 1,760 x 1,520 mm dimensions

• 2,580 mm wheelbase

• 183 mm ground clearance

• Five-seat layout

• 17-inch alloy wheels

That ground clearance number will catch attention, because it matters on rough roads and broken speed bumps. But again, the report does not confirm whether every one of these specs applies the same way to both Turbo X and Turbo S.

Is it cheaper than the earlier Stonic?

The same report refers to an earlier Stonic price of around Rs 60 lakh. Based on that reference, the new reported price is lower by Rs 5.01 lakh for the Turbo X and Rs 1.01 lakh for the Turbo S.

But this is where buyers should slow down. That earlier figure is only a historical reference, and the report does not say if it was ex-factory, invoice, or on-road. So yes, the new headline price looks lower, but you cannot call the Stonic cheaper on-road until you see the dealer’s written quote.

What about rivals like Suzuki Fronx ADAS and Chery Q?

The source report names the Suzuki Fronx ADAS and Chery Q as alternatives. That’s useful, because a buyer at this budget won’t shop in a vacuum.

But the real comparison only makes sense if you match:

• Exact variant

• Reported vehicle price vs on-road price

• Equipment list

• Warranty and service support

• Delivery timeline

Right now, the Stonic’s appeal is simple: fresh design, turbo power, and a reported starting price below the older reference. But if the Turbo S costs Rs 400,000 more, Kia should clearly show what extra equipment you get for that money. Without that, the Turbo X looks like the safer shortlisting pick.

What should buyers confirm before booking?

Before you send any money, ask an authorised Kia dealer for a written answer on these points:

• Official booking amount

• Final price and tax treatment

• Price-lock policy

• Estimated delivery date

• Warranty terms

• Service schedule

• Exact equipment for Turbo X and Turbo S

• Registration, insurance, freight, and other charges

• Cancellation and refund terms

• Payment and financing conditions

Also, keep in mind that a past Stonic booking change was reported on May 2, 2024, which is useful background only. It shows why you should never rely on a verbal promise alone.

Conclusion

The new Kia Stonic looks more modern on paper, and the reported Rs 5,499,000 starting price makes it worth a closer look for buyers in the Rs 55 to 59 lakh range. But because the booking amount, delivery timeline, and full on-road cost are still unconfirmed, the smart move is to shortlist the Turbo X first, ask for a written quote, and only consider the Turbo S if Kia explains the extra Rs 400,000 in black and white.
