Hint: the results won’t come as that much of a surprise.

Observations
The ADAS packages are the same regarding features and how they operate. However, the major difference is that with the Venue you can have it SX (O) and N-Line N8 trim while in the Sonet it is available only in the fully loaded X-Line trim level. However, if we go by how the Seltos developed, we know there will be at least one lower-spec variant a short while after the launch of the Sonet.
