Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

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
Maruti Suzuki e Vitara
- A claimed range of over 500km means intercity trips are possible.
- Features: 10.25-inch touchscreen, 10-speaker Infinity sound system, front seat ventilation, configurable ambient lighting — everything’s included.
- Maruti Suzuki has committed to developing charging infrastructure at its own dealerships and workshops, improving confidence.
- Strong safety suite with 7 airbags, 360° camera and Level 2 ADAS.

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
Maruti Suzuki e Vitara
- Rear seat headroom and underthigh support is a compromise.
- No all-wheel drive version for India.
