                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

                  MG Hector

                  • Looks: Feels premium inside and out
                  • Space is great with generous room even for taller passengers
                  • Loaded with good features like a 14-inch touchscreen, ventilated front seats, and a panoramic sunroof
                  • Strong safety kit with features like ADAS and 360-degree camera
                  • A refined petrol engine with comfortable ride quality
                • 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

                  MG Hector

                  • The big grille and chrome elements can be too blingy for some buyers
                  • No automatic transmission with the diesel engine
                  • Should have had better contoured seats and underthigh support at the rear
                  • Fuel efficiency of the petrol engine is still an issue
