Pros and Cons
- Positives
- Negatives
Kia Seltos
- Looks aggressive and has strong road presence.
- Cabin space is accommodating for a family of 5.
- 6 airbags, ABS with EBD, ISOFIX, rear camera, TPMS and a lot more safety as standard. Higher variants add ADAS, 360-degree camera and more!
- Variety of engines and transmissions means there’s a Seltos for different use cases.
- Interior feels well built. Solid fitment quality.
- Feature-rich: 30-inch panoramic display, 8-speaker BOSE music system, ventilated front seats, powered driver’s seat with memory, panoramic sunroof and a lot more.
Mahindra XEV 9e
- Two battery pack options & estimated real world range of 400-500km
- Superb infotainment experience: triple 12
- 3” screens + Harman/Kardon with Dolby Atmos
- Strong safety suite includes well-calibrated L2 ADAS & 5 Star BNCAP rated too
Kia Seltos
- Styling isn’t as sleek, sporty and understated as the previous car. This car looks more polarising vs the universal likeability of the predecessor.
- Plastic panels used throughout the cabin can scratch easily.
- Some minor feature misses: Powered tailgate, boss lever to adjust co-driver’s seat, rear seat ventilation (like the Syros)
Mahindra XEV 9e
- High floorboard means you will have to watch your head when stepping in
