The 2025 Kia Stonic is a petrol SUV with FWD and seating for 5. It belongs to the YB LCI generation. The 1.0 T-GDi is the version described here, and the figures below refer to that configuration unless noted otherwise.
Performance
The featured 1.0 T-GDi version develops 120 hp and 200 Nm (148 lb-ft) of torque. Its listed 0-100 km/h time is 10.2 seconds, which is measured, with performance geared more toward normal driving than acceleration. Top speed is listed at 185 km/h (115 mph). Its power output is about 56% below the peer average. Its 0-100 km/h time is about 41% slower than the peer average. The figures establish its straight-line performance on paper, but they do not substitute for measured braking, handling or ride-quality tests.
Fuel economy and range
The listed fuel consumption is 5.8 L/100km. Fuel-tank capacity is 42.0 litres (11.1 US gallons). Recorded CO2 emissions are 132 g/km. Consumption, emissions and range can be measured under different regional procedures, so like-for-like comparisons should use the same market and test cycle.
Dimensions and practicality
Its exterior dimensions are 4,140 mm (163.0 in) in length, 1,760 mm (69.3 in) in width, and 1,520 mm (59.8 in) in height, while the wheelbase measures 2,580 mm (101.6 in). Cargo capacity is listed at 352 litres (12.4 cu ft), expanding to 1,155 litres (40.8 cu ft) with the rear seats folded. The cabin is configured for 5 occupants. Listed curb weight is 1,230 kg (2,712 lb). That cargo volume is about 38% below the peer average. The measurements are useful for comparison, although seat comfort, access and the shape of the load area still need to be judged in person.
In perspective
Compared with nearby petrol SUV models from the same period, the 2025 Kia Stonic is strongest on price, while power and acceleration stand out as the principal numerical compromise. That conclusion is drawn from the recorded specifications rather than a road test. A final choice should also account for local pricing, equipment, comfort and a test drive.
