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.
Toyota Taisor
  • Good looks with enough tweaks to distinguish it from the Fronx
  • multiple engine options including a turbo petrol and CNG option
Kia Seltos
  • Prices will go up. Some could feel that the visual changes are not enough.
Toyota Taisor
  • Again similar feature misses like no ventilated seats or sunroof
  • similar lack of storage and head room in the rear. You'll also need to pay a bit more for the mid variants of the Taisor compared to the Fronx.
