Seltos was Kia’s firs ever product for Indian market and it received an overwhelming response from customers. Even after couple of years after the launch, Kia Seltos still has demand in market and has waiting period depending upon the variant you choose. The top-end variant of Kia Seltos is loaded with features but, the lower variants miss out on several features. We have seen several videos where Kia Seltos has been modified tastefully.
