Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Citroen Aircross
- Spacious & practical: Offers good space for five people with class leading boot space.
- Comfortable: Offers a plush ride over bad and broken roads.
- Good drivability: Turbo-petrol engine offers good performance in both city and on highways
- Looks tough: Has a more SUV design than crossover.
- Good displays: Both the 10.25-inch touchscreen and the 7-inch driver's display run smoothly
Kia Seltos
- Plenty of charging options for the entire family: 5 USB type-C ports with front wireless phone charging
- Feature-rich: Dual 12.3-inch displays, panoramic sunroof, 8-speaker Bose sound system, 360-degree camera and Level-2 ADAS
- Engine and transmission options: Gets three engines, including a diesel, each with the option of a manual or automatic transmission
- Ride quality: Feels comfortable with improved cushioning than before

Citroen Aircross
- Limited space: 3rd row offers decent space for children, not adults
Kia Seltos
- Not as poised around a corner as before: Comfy suspension has reduced the sharpness in handling
- Polarising looks: New bold design is a big departure from the earlier sharp and sporty look
- Fuel efficiency with the turbo-petrol and diesel-automatic won’t be great
