      Seltos Expert Review

      ProsGood Things

      • Good value proposition 
      • Potent and efficient engines 
      • Easy, effortless and enjoyable to drive 

      ConsCould be Better

      • No hybrid powertrain 
      • Uncomfortable middle rear seat 
      • No manual gearbox with turbo petrol or diesel engines. 

      Engine and performance

      Engine Shot

      The new Seltos comes with the option of three engines - a naturally aspirated 1.5-litre petrol, a 1.5-litre diesel, and the new 1.5-litre turbo petrol. We have the latter. The new engine has impressive output figures - 160bhp of max power and over 250Nm of peak torque, and it comes mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic. One can also opt for a six-speed iMT transmission with this engine, but there is no manual on offer. 

      Kia Seltos Right Front Three Quarter

      The engine feels peppy and torquey, almost like a diesel, but more refined. Overtakes with the Seltos, as a result, are a breeze. It is also happy to cruise at 120kmph when the highways permit. It is quick under full-bore acceleration hitting 100kmph from a standstill in around nine seconds. And kickdowns are dispatched in a hurry too. The only challenge is how long the Seltos takes to drop down to the right gear and then take off. It makes the engine feel a little less potent than it is. 

      The engine itself is refined. One can hear it when you push past 4,000rpm, but it never gets too noisy. It also never feels like it is being pushed too hard. As far as fuel efficiency goes, expect it to return between 10-12kmpl in the city and almost as high as 20kmpl on highways, albeit when driven between 80-100kmph with a light foot. 

      Kia Seltos Left Front Three Quarter

      Ride and handling

      Right Rear Three Quarter

      The original Seltos felt firm and not the most cosseting in terms of ride quality. The suspension was then tweaked to make the ride more supple. Now, Kia says it has further reworked the suspension on the 2023 Seltos to arrive at an even better balance between ride and handling. The approach has been to make the front tauter and the rear have more give. The result on the road is a pleasant one. The Seltos rounds the bumps and potholes well. There’s no harshness to the ride. And the SUV rides flat through most undulations, bumps and dips. Add to it a quiet cabin, and the overall experience of driving or being driven in the new Seltos is that of a big, stable and planted car. Its ride still isn’t all-conquering, so one needs to be mindful when tackling poor roads at speed. 

      Left Front Three Quarter

      The new Seltos might ride better, but its focus on dynamics hasn't waned. It is still a nice car to go around corners with. The steering feel isn't great. And it doesn't run the quickest of steering racks either. However, enter a corner, and the turn-in is positive and predictable; the body roll isn't pronounced; and it is not one to understeer without provocation. It is an enjoyable car to go up and down the twisties with, especially with the brakes offering consistent and reliable bite, progression and feel, even after quick repeated use.  

      Exterior design

      Kia Seltos Left Front Three Quarter

      The older Seltos was a nice-looking car already with a good mix of traditional SUV sharp lines and some touches of modernity. Since the body panels on this facelift are identical, the visual cues continue on the 2023 Kia Seltos as well. It does, however, get a bolder face now. With the added play of lights and a sportier front bumper, it stands out even more in a crowd. Changes to the rear include a new connected tail lamp design, and like the front, a more aggressive bumper design. The facelift also gets sequential indicators, both front and back. 

      Kia Seltos Left Rear Three Quarter

      Comfort, convenience and features

      Kia Seltos Dashboard

      The interiors of the new Seltos look well built, sporty, and premium. The choice of colours, the metal highlights, and the graining used for the hard plastic, especially on the dash top, help give it that upmarket look. It gets soft-touch inserts on the dashboard and the doors, which further enhance the look and feel. Operability of the switches, stalks and buttons, though not completely crisp, do have adequate feedback. We would have liked a better aircon control panel, nonetheless. The operation of the buttons lacks finesse, and the panel itself looks subpar compared to the rest of the cabin. Otherwise, it is a cabin you feel good about every time you step in. And that panoramic sunroof, on an overcast day, feels lovely to have. 

      Kia Seltos Front Row Seats

      Besides the sunroof, the 2023 Seltos gets a dual-zone climate control system. It has ventilated front seats with an electrically adjustable driver’s seat. The rear seats now recline. The head-up display or HUD makes a comeback. There’s wireless charging, auto headlamps and wipers, and a 360-degree camera. Plus, there are plenty of storage spaces to put away your cups, bottles, wallets and the like. 

      The party piece of the new Seltos’ interior, however, is its new single-panel digital cluster. It's an integrated screen that includes displays for both the driver information system as well as the touchscreen system for the multimedia. Both these displays use 10.25-inch full-colour, HD screens. Otherwise, the multi-media system is similar to the older Seltos with a Bose sound system with both Apple Carplay and Android Auto, which still aren't of the wireless variety. At the rear, you get dedicated AC vents, an armrest with cupholders, and window blinds to keep the sun away on a hot, sunny day. 

      Kia Seltos Second Row Seats

      The new Kia Seltos also comes with Level 2 ADAS in the top trims. There are 17 driver assist systems including adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist and blind spot collision avoidance, which prove to be handy companions on the highway. In the city though, we found it best to keep the ADAS off barring the rear collision avoidance. These apart, all versions of the new Seltos also get six airbags, disc brakes all around, ESP, and hill start assist. 

      The Seltos continues to be a good five-seater SUV. Firstly, the seats all around are large and comfy. We especially like the ones at the front. The rear ones aren't bad either, and the recline feature is a welcome addition. The rear seats though are a little close to the floor for our liking. As a result, the thigh support isn't great. Also, the rear can accommodate three, but the one who takes the centre seat will have a tough time thanks to the stiff backrest.  The boot continues unchanged. It is of a decent size. Plus, a 60/40 split for the rear seats and a flat loading bay, once the seats are down, lends added luggage-carrying ability and flexibility to the Seltos' boot.  

      AC Controls

      Conclusion

      This might be a facelift, but the new Seltos now gets more features. It has better interiors and a nicer exterior design, and changes have also been made to its suspension and shell to give it better ride and handling, and crashworthiness. Not to mention, it now gets a new, powerful turbo engine in the 1.5. 

      And after all these changes, the new Seltos costs only Rs 30,000 more than the car it replaces. This is for the fully loaded GTX plus and X-line trims. The lower trims are similarly priced as the older model. Yes, some equipment like a music system has been deleted but in exchange, these trims get a better safety suite as standard. 

      As we see it - in value-for-money terms - the new Seltos has it right.

        Kia Seltos Facelift- A Cut above the Rest

        09/28/2023 04:32:52 | Yedu Krishnan

        The Kia Seltos had been on my shortlist ever since its launch but with the launch of the facelift, its intrigue grew even more, I had been in search of a compact SUV since 2022 but one or more reasons prevented me from taking the plunge. When the news of the Kia Seltos facelift started making the rounds, I immediately made a booking with the Incheon Kia dealership in Thrissur, and the waiting began. I went for the GTX+ Diesel AT variant in Gravity Grey and the car definitely looks great in this shade. The experience from the dealership from booking to delivery was absolutely seamless and my sales executive regularly updated me with the details of the car, expected delivery timelines, and features of the car. I got a test drive immediately within a week of the official launch and I was immediately sold on the car. The price of the car ex-showroom was Rs. 19,79,900 and it came to Rs. 24,16,852 on-road in Kerala, we, however, opted for Kia's My Convenience Plus Luxury Package as well which provided us with the triple benefits of a 5-year maintenance package, an Extended warranty with 5-years' coverage, and 5-year Roadside assistance, and tyre alloy protection in the first year as well. Along with this, a few accessories like a sidestep, premium dual-layer mats, boot mats, body side molding, side fenders, and an underbody coating jacked the price up to over twenty-five lakh rupees. however, for what it offers, I definitely feel it is worth the price paid. The car was delivered on time as expected and we were treated to an extensive delivery ceremony by the dealership. I literally got goosebumps and was absolutely overjoyed to get my hands on my brand-new car. The initial impressions are great, the car is definitely a looker with a bold stance, tall 18-inch tyres, and excellent styling all around. The elegantly designed cuts and lines, connected tail lights, sequential turn signals, a big and bold front grill, DRLs, and fog lights all add to the imposing nature of the car. The car is practical with lots of space to store your stuff including cup holders at the front and back, bottle holders in all the doors, phone charging spaces, and so on. The boot is large at 433 litres and can hold more than enough luggage for a weekend trip or for ferrying luggage to the airport. The features in the car are definitely the talk of the town with almost everything you could ask for in this budget. The wireless charging pad with cooling function, drive, and traction control modes, electronic parking brake with auto hold, 360-degree camera, dual 10.25-inch screens, ventilated front seats, dual-zone climate control, voice commands, panoramic sunroof, Kia Connect, Air purifier and Bose Sound System provide you with a wholesome experience and make you feel like you are in a car from a class above. The safety features in the car are also top-notch with 6 airbags standard, ABS, EBD, VSM, TPMS, TCS, ESP, Hill Hold Control, Hill Descent Control, ADAS, and a lot more as part of the package. The fit, finish, and quality levels in the car are also up to segment standards and you won't feel anything cheap in the car. The space at the back is adequate for three average-sized adults with everyone getting their own headrests as well. The rear occupants also get a charging port with USB-C, sunshades, rear AC vents, and an armrest with cup holders as well, so the comfort levels are definitely top-notch. The ride is a bit on the firmer side, but it adds to the sporty nature of the car, however, I feel it is definitely much better than the pre-facelift version with the facelift offering a more mature suspension setup. The steering is light at slower speeds but builds up weight as you pick up the pace which is definitely confidence-inspiring. The car keeps its composure even on twisted roads and feels planted with body roll well contained. The mileage has been great so far, with it hovering around the 19 to 20 km/l mark while on the highway and around the 14 to 15 km/l range in the city. The performance is adequate with the car able to build up power and pick up the pace smoothly with seamless shifts from the torque converter gearbox. The engine noise, road noise, and wind noise are well contained with the engine getting audible once you floor the throttle. It's a calm and composed mile-muncher that will happily serve you well be it on the highway or in the city. The most intriguing feature while driving is the Level 2 ADAS which definitely helps with all the 17 or so ADAS functions. they assist the driver while on the road with timely interventions when required. Be it adaptive cruise control which is a boon on the highways as it steers the car ahead at an appropriate distance from the car in front, braking and accelerating in tow to maintain the fixed distance, forward collision warning which warns the driver of cars coming right at you, auto emergency braking which applies the brakes when the car senses obstacles very close by, blind spot warning which alerts the driver of vehicles coming in from his blind spot, lane keep assist which helps you drive perfectly within the lanes on marked roads and a host of others as well. The ADAS functions can be turned off or on at your convenience using the touchscreen infotainment system, along with customizing the level of assistance, warning sound levels, etc. Now moving on to service and maintenance, with Kia introducing the My Convenience Plus package in the facelift Seltos and with me opting for the same in the Luxury package, service has been taken care of for 5 years with almost everything covered, with the first service coming in one month or 1,000 km, the next at the one year mark or 10,000 km and thereafter at the second year or 20,000 km and so on till the five years or 50,00 km. So far, I have completed the first service within one month of my ownership and it has been absolutely hassle-free, with the dealership providing free pick up and drop, moreover, during the service, the service personnel regularly sends pictures of the car undergoing service and you feel assured that your car is in good hands. Service costs even without the maintenance package are on the lower side and definitely won't burn a hole in your pocket. However, with an all-in-one comprehensive ownership package at Rs. 46,995 for petrol cars and Rs. 51.995 for diesel cars, the Luxury package in My Convenience Plus is definitely value for money for all the benefits it offers. Overall, the Kia Seltos facelift provides you with everything you need in a compact SUV and then some, it's loaded to the brim with features without compromising on anything noticeable as such. The drive is great, the mileage is excellent, the fit, finish, and quality levels are top-notch and it has a good amount of interior space on offer too. However, the ride is a bit firm, so it doesn't sail over bumpy roads or rough patches with ease like a car with a softer ride would have, there are a few omissions that Kia could have taken care of like providing an adjustable armrest instead of the fixed one currently on offer and the lack of Wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay in an otherwise well-connected car. However, despite the minor shortcomings, if you are looking for a well-rounded compact SUV that is modern. loaded with technology, provides a great mix of features, engine options, drive, and comfort, The Kia Seltos facelift should definitely be on your shortlist, it is definitely a cut above the rest.
