Drivers car with safety and confidence. Buying experience was good no hard pushing from showroom DCT petrol is really for those who are serious driver with quick reflexes, know how to properly use paddle shifters because there lies the hidden potential of the gear box, Car is stable at speed of 120 with 4 passengers at emergency braking. Looks wise rear scores the most and on highway its the rear that is noted the most, Driven 17000 kms and total servicing cost is 5000 till date. At this price have no such complaints, area to improve is headlights reach, to be much brighter to see the road ahead,

Just wanted to say about the E20 part, I am using a 2023 XL6 and I live in a highly humid region, I keep my full tank more than half filled all the time, and my primary use case is weekend travels to Home and back, and sometimes, using the car instead of bike, if it's really hot outside, or heavily raining, I clock atleast 20K Kms every year, I am using all premium E20 fuels like BP speed (90%), XP95, and HP (10%) of the time, with all this said, I am facing not a single issue with my engine, or fuel injectors, nothing whatsoever, expect I was getting about 16-17 KMPL in 2023 and now in 2026 it has significantly reuced to 14-15 KMPL. So I believe it matters where you are filling that E20 fuel. I try to use the pumps within 5 kms from my home, as they are smaller fish have reputation to maintain; big city fuel pumps might do adulteration to earn that extra profit. Adding to it, I have 2018 Verna Petrol Automatic; my younger sister is using it for daily runs, using the same fuel pumps and fuel type we are using; no issues whatsoever. Getting about 7-8 KMPL; pre-E20, it was about 9-10 KMPL.

The Best Car In The Segment. I am owning kia seltos base model. It has everything from the important features to the outside look the cabin is very spacious, it gives a proper bonet view because it has height adjustment feature and the engine is very silent, the speakers are damn good the only drawback of the car is that it gives very low mileage on petrol in the city around 9-10 kmpl otherwise the car is best in the segment.

Owner of a driven 1000 km new Seltos 7DCT (Petrol). HTK (o). I named it The SILENT BEAST. Pros At 80 to 85 kmph highway (meerut-Delhi expressway) cruise with 2 people was able to make 24 kmpl. normal city drive 10.5 kmpl. bumper to bumper traffic 6-8 kmpl. No software glitch spacious 2nd row Kia exceptional service Speakers really good sudden rush of turbo after accelerating from full stop from old Seltos is fixed head rest for middle passenger which is not there in Creta. suspension is great on normal bumps on Indian highways particularly on Eastern peripheral while cruising at 130 kmph (mileage 11 kmpl). Cons It has a softer suspension with 2000 kg (equivalent to Innova) not good for quick manoeuvres to overtake on hills even with a turbo. It feels car is about to go out of control. No fog light as accessories :( No rain sensing wiper in 7DCT HTK (o) chrome Accessories fitment by dealer was very poor. Not feeling confident with breaks Overall This is a wonderful family 5 seater car for highway cruising.

Luxury on a Budget: My Honest Take on the Kia Seltos Petrol Base. Buying the Kia Seltos Petrol HTE was seamless. It looks premium, drives smoothly in cities, and offers great safety. While it lacks features, its road presence and low maintenance are unbeatable. On the road, the 1.5L engine is remarkably refined, offering a silent and vibration-free experience at idle. While it isn't a high-speed powerhouse, it handles daily commutes with ease and maintains great stability on highways. The steering feels light and responsive, making it easy to manoeuvre through tight spots. Inside, the cabin quality is impressive for a base trim. Even without the fancy touchscreens of higher models, the fit and finish remain top-tier. You get a sense of \"big car\" comfort with ample legroom and a high seating position that gives you a clear view of the road ahead, ensuring confidence for new drivers. Maintenance has been surprisingly light on the pocket. With Kia's transparent service costs and a widespread network, keeping the car in top shape is hassle-free. As long as you follow a regular service schedule and keep an eye on tyre pressure, the Seltos remains a reliable and stylish companion for years.

I booked clavis EV but the marketing team gave me incorrect timelines and after waiting for two months for Clavis EV and kept on stalling me, so I cancelled the booking and got Sierra EV empowered A which is was somehow with the dealer and that was the best decision I made. I was surprised to see how good Tata’s marketing team have become. I had a really bad experience with Kia and it’s been 10 days since I cancelled my booking and haven’t got the refund. The best thing about sierra is range, I managed to get around 560km range. Did a round trip from Ghaziabad to Vrindavan without charging. Features are also good and even the build quality is good along with great suspension. Let’s see how the first service is gonna be.. I had a really bad experience with Kia which I never expected as I already had multiple Hyundai cars in the past and had a great experience but not with Kia.. As far as fit and finish is concerned I had panel gaps in my 2020 1.4 Turbo sx option creta as well. I feel people have bias towards foreign brand and are over critical of Tata and Mahindra. I understand there might be some issues but it’s not that the other foreign brands are perfect…

KIA SELTOS. Extremely smooth, excellent features, premium interior, stylish as well as a comfortable midsize SUV for a family of 5 would definitely recommend buying as it has ADAS level 2 which i got to know when i started driving my family absolutely loved the car and my parents enjoyed sitting for long drives as well.

Excellent Drive Quality, Comfort, and Features. The Kia Seltos offers a smooth and comfortable driving experience with excellent ride quality and modern features. The cabin is spacious, well-designed, and packed with useful technology. Fuel efficiency of around 16 kmpl is satisfactory, and the overall build quality feels premium. Even within the first few hundred kilometres, the car has been enjoyable to drive and meets expectations in terms of comfort, performance, and value for money.

EARLIER KIA SELTOS 1.4 DCT WAS SO UNCOMFORTABLE TO DRIVE, FULL OF JERKS AND MISSES, SEVERE DCT ISSUES, ALTHOUGH CAR HAD BRILLIANT INTERIORS AND FEATURES. BARRING THE DCT ISSUE AND DRIVE, CAR WAS GOOD, SCARED TO BUY A KIA AGAIN. STILL WAITING FOR CRETA EV FACELIFT LAUNCH.

New seltos 2026 htx manual drive review. Everything was good, drove the car with the full family in the Bangalore City traffic conditions in evening peak hours, handling was good, even at 30 kmph, steering becomes heavier, car looks beautiful from outside and inside, instrument cluster looks beautiful, gears are smooth, headlight throw is good, the boot is quite big. Overall car is spacious. Braking is good. You can feel the road presence. Cons: With a full load, it takes some time to take a pickup. Big speed breakers do touch if not slowed down properly Gear indication is not there, though gear upshift notification is there. 360 is not there. The speaker's sound quality is good. So much use of hard plastic in the interior I don't like, but those look good.

Cool Car Kia Seltos 2026. HTE (O) variant of Kia Seltos is a balanced entry-level SUV that offers premium design, good space and essential features, but it misses some comfort features like auto AC and alloy wheels. Its very cool car and a smooth driving experience. Mileage - City - 13.5 Outer - 18.5 Good for buyers who want a big SUV look with essential features without spending ₹15–18 lakh.

Good looking car with all the required modern features. Looks: This looks good inside out. Quality: Feels sturdy with heavy doors. Interior plastic and seats are made with quality material. Features: Drove HTK+(O); all the necessary features are available. Mileage: In Pune city traffic, MID shows up to 9kmpl max, even sometimes lower than 9kmpl. Ride: Absorbing ride, no issue with small potholes. Handling: Steering is light yet weighs sufficiently with speed increase. Very easy in the city. Entertainment: Good Speaker system, no distortion at high volume. AC: This is a problem area I feel; in the monsoon pleasant season, the AC just feel okay, takes more time to cool the cabin. I think it will be a problem in harsh summer.

Excellent Car In India. This is very excellent car in India. I'm very happy to see this car. It offers more features and this is very excellent car. This is mind blowing car in India. I have purchased this car, it has more spacious cabin and it gives mileage upto 15 to 16kmpl. This car comes with excellent design and interior is very nice. It comes with excellent look, alloy wheels and dealer offers. Best car service and pickup is very high and this car is so comfortable. The built quality is 5 star rating. Don't use this cars for cab and for rent, sharing because this is excellent premium car. It comes with premium looks and also has low maintenance.

Powerful Turbo Petrol DCT with Premium Comfort. The Kia Seltos HTK(O) Turbo Petrol DCT impressed me with its sporty performance, smooth 7-speed DCT gearbox, and premium road presence. The turbo-petrol engine feels powerful during overtakes and highway cruising, while the automatic transmission makes city driving stress-free. The cabin is spacious, comfortable, and packed with useful features for daily use. Ride quality is well balanced, and the steering feels confident at higher speeds. Safety features and build quality inspire confidence on long trips. Mileage is decent for a turbo petrol automatic when driven sensibly. Overall, the Seltos HTK(O) DCT offers a great blend of performance, comfort, practicality, and value, making it an excellent family SUV for both city and highway driving.

Price is also affordable in comparison to its features, benefits and style.

CarWale owner reviewsMay 2026

performance apt for city drive. Driving the Kia Seltos GTX Automatic CVT has been a surprisingly refined and comfortable experience. The first thing that stands out is how smooth the CVT gearbox feels in daily city driving. Traffic conditions, especially in crowded urban roads, become much less tiring because the transmission delivers power seamlessly without jerks. The steering feels light at low speeds, making parking and tight turns easy, while still offering decent confidence on highways. The cabin quality is another major highlight of the Seltos GTX variant. The interiors feel premium with well-designed seats, a modern dashboard layout, and a feature-loaded infotainment system. Ventilated seats, panoramic sunroof, Bose sound system, and the digital instrument cluster together create a very upscale driving environment. Kia has clearly focused on making the experience luxurious without pushing the car into an unaffordable segment. Performance-wise, the engine is more tuned for smoothness and comfort rather than aggressive, sporty driving. The CVT responds well during normal acceleration, though enthusiastic drivers may sometimes miss the punch of a DCT gearbox during sudden overtakes. However, for regular commuting and long drives, the refinement level is excellent. The suspension absorbs bumps comfortably, and highway stability remains impressive even at higher speeds. Fuel efficiency is also quite reasonable for a feature-rich SUV of this size. Overall, the Kia Seltos GTX CVT feels like a perfect balance between premium comfort, practicality, modern technology, and ease of driving. It is an ideal choice for someone looking for a stylish and stress-free automatic SUV for both city and highway usage.
