Kia has been consistent with bold designs, and overall, pretty well-made cars for the past few years. Venturing through the Indian automotive market, it has also picked up a few laurels along the way. Now to maintain this pace, a manufacturer needs to be able to stay ahead of the curve, and with the new Seltos facelift, that's exactly what Kia has tried to pull off. Priced from ₹10.90 lakh to ₹20 lakh, the SUV now gets a new powertrain option, updated interior and most significantly, level-2 ADAS features.
At first glance, it is evident that the build quality as well as the fit and finish of the SUV is pretty good. It feels premium, and the 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system and 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster add to the whole effect. The dual-pane panoramic sunroof is one awesome addition, provided one takes the car to search for awe-inducing views. Talking about views, Kia has added a 360-degree camera, adding to the convenience of assisted spatial awareness.
