The second generation Kia Seltos gets a plethora of changes inside and out and is available in an expansive range
Kia India has officially announced prices for the second generation Seltos. Starting at Rs. 10.99 lakh, the prices go all the way up to Rs. 19.99 lakh for the range-topping model (ex-showroom). With production already underway at Kia’s Anantapur facility, it is underpinned by the global K3 platform and benefits from a more rigid structure with improve driveability.
The platform also supports improved safety credentials and is reinforced further by a comprehensive standard safety package. Across the range, features such as six airbags, ABS, hill-start assist and electronic stability control are offered while higher variants add Level-2 ADAS with 21 autonomous functions.
On the outside, the new Seltos boasts Kia’s latest Opposites United design philosophy. Measuring 4,460 mm in length with a wider stance and longer wheelbase, the SUV offers improved cabin room alongside a better road presence. Design elements include the Digital Tiger Face, segment-first automatic streamline door handles, Ice Cube LED projector headlamps and newly designed alloy wheels elevate its overall appeal as it draws inspiration from the global Telluride.

Inside the cabin, Kia has taken a significant leap in terms of digital integration and upmarket quality. The highlight is the segment-leading 75.18 cm panoramic display that integrates infotainment and driver information. Complementing this is a premium Bose eight-speaker sound system and wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility.
Depending on the variant, buyers get ventilated front seats, a panoramic sunroof, a 10-way power-adjustable driver seat with memory function, relaxation mode and welcome retract functionality. The all-new Seltos is offered with three engine options as before including the 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol, the more powerful 1.5-litre turbo petrol, and the 1.5-litre CRDi diesel.
Transmission choices range from manual and iMT to IVT, DCT and torque converter automatic. Kia has organised the lineup around four main trims – HTE, HTK, HTX and GTX/X-Line – supplemented by multiple option packs that provide convenience and premium features along with ADAS and sportier design elements.
