Kia Seltos GTK Discontinued; Other Variants Get New Features & Price Revision

by Jagdev Kalsi on Wednesday, Jun 03 2020

Kia has introduced new features in the Seltos and has updated its prices as well. The entry-level price of Seltos with both the petrol and diesel engines remains the same, and there’s no change in the price of the GTX+ variant as well. All other variants get an upward revision in the price ranging from Rs 10,000 to Rs 30,000. The old and new prices of the Seltos are as follows:

It is worth noting that the GTK variant of the Seltos, which was the most affordable variant with the 1.4-litre turbocharged petrol engine, has been discontinued. As a result, the Seltos 1.4 range now starts from Rs 15.54 lakh.

The increase in prices of the Seltos is accompanied by the addition of some features as well. All the variants of the Seltos now come with Emergency Stop Signal and front & rear USB charger as standard.

There’s also an update to the UVO connected car tech of the Seltos that is available X variant onwards in both the GT and HT Line variants. Both the GTX and HTX variants also get a sunroof now, making these variants more desirable than before for buyers seeking premium features. Since these variants get a price increase of Rs 25,000 to Rs 30,000, these clearly offer more value now.
