Pros and Cons

  • Positives
  • Negatives

Kia Seltos

  • Still a very good looking Crossover
  • new DRLs and connected taillamps look fab. 18-inch alloys now in both X-line and GTX+ variants
  • ADAS 2.0
  • panoramic sunroof and dual zone climate control. New more powerful turbo petrol. Plenty of drivetrain options including a diesel engine.

Mercedes-Benz EQS

  • Nearly 600km of driving range on a single charge
  • spacious cabin
  • luxurious interior quality and practical boot

Kia Seltos

  • Prices will go up. Some could feel that the visual changes are not enough.

Mercedes-Benz EQS

  • Aerodynamic design may be polarizing for those who prefer the traditional three-box sedan styling
  • chauffeur driven owners may still prefer the regular S-Class

    I own seltos petrol.As per my opinion seltos is the best badass in suv segment i purchase seltos in 2021 and till now i have no issues in my car, Mileage is reached 20 if you driven car in softing way your car on highway, Otherwise in city 10-11km/litre, Build quality has little issue, Body is not as expected otherwise although i have never touched my car in 3 years, My car have one hand always so driven is very soft and no issue.At last i say this is must buying car if you compromise with bulid quality.And driven softly, Otherwise you enjoy very much.Lovely car 🚗❣️.

    Mercedes-Benz EQS: Luxury on Wheels 

    I recently took a road trip from Mumbai to Pune in my Mercedes Benz EQS. The 56 inch Hyperscreen dashboard is an absolute marvel and the 516 hp made overtaking on the expressway feel effortless. The quietness inside the cabin is almost unreal makes the usually noisy Indian roads a lot more bearable and quite.The interior space is unmatched and the seats are most comfortable. Fast charging is convenient with the onboard 200 kW charger but finding a compatible charging station in less urban areas can be problematic.

    an outstanding model 

    One of the highest ranked models, the merecdes benz EQS is an outstanding model with a large seating capacity for five members, perfect for families and groups. I personally love this model, and have bought this for a decent price and in white colour. It looks attractive and turns heads on road. Comfort and quality wise it is excellent, comes with smooth drive train but there are limited power train options. I would highly recommend this to others.

    you will own it next 

    Beginning from a decent price range in India, the Mercedes-Benz EQS is a strength defining car model built to beat the rest. Its powerful engine delivers great power and performance. The maintenance of this car seeks a bit of attention, time and cost but it is definitely worthy of all the appreciation. It is available in many variants and colours. My experience at the showroom as well as the buying process was also quite good and i would recommend this to all.

    My Electrifying Experience  

    The Mercedes Benz EQS has transformed my view on electric vehicles (EVs). Adopting this EV was a leap towards sustainability and the EQS did not disappoint. Its futuristic design turns heads but it is the whisper quiet and exhilarating performance that truly sets it apart. The interior is a tech lover's paradise with the MBUX Hyperscreen offering an intuitive and immersive experience.Despite its excellence In India, the infrastructure for EVs is still developing, making long distance travels outside city limits a bit of a planning exercise.

    A Vision of Electric Opulence 

    The Mercedes-Benz EQS introduction of new era of luxury electric is very remarkable where cutting edge technology and class of luxury are merged in existing electric vehicles. Its daring design, characterized by a smooth outline and a unique front grille, prefigures a revolutionized driving. The cabin is well-designed and provides a spacious environment for the driver where a hyperscreen instrument cluster is thoughtfully installed providing a breakthrough view into the cockpit. The electric powertrain of an EQS is characterised by its silent fuctionalism coupled with great expressiveness, which adds up to 510 km range that underscores the company’s ecologically oriented stance. This state-of-the-art electric sedan is the quintessence of Mercedes-Benz's spirit of innovation, transforming the concept of electric vehicles, becoming the yardstick for other luxury brands that manufacture electric cars. The Mercedes-Benz EQS is not simply a vehicle; it’s a look into the future of automotive supremacy.

    Pinnacle of Electric Luxury 

    I've been monstrously enthralled with the Mercedes- Benz EQS's combination of opulent futurism, bountiful luxury, and environmentally responsible interpretation since I came its owner. I was directly drawn in by the bus's opulent, futuristic Expression, which had a long, flowing profile and turned heads wherever I went along on. I was ate with an opulent and exquisitely accoutred space that exudes class and complication as soon as I stepped outdoors. My passengers and I have cornucopia of headroom and legroom inside the roomy, luxurious engine, which makes indeed lengthy passages enjoyable. Driving is a sheer gladness thanks to the font- allowed- out cabin and simple layout, and the cornucopia of slice- edge technologies and technology take driving to new situations. The EQS handles with delicacy and visage, furnishing a smooth, smooth, and fine assist whether I'm floating the open road, traveling across megacity, or traveling for a weekend.
