While the Seltos has a more conventional cabin layout, the Sierra’s interior feels more special
Tata is all set to launch the new Sierra on November 25, just days after fully revealing the SUV. The new Sierra takes some design inspiration from the previous iteration, but gets a completely modern interior which comes with a plethora of top-notch features.
The SUV will be entering the fiercely competitive SUV segment, which is arguably one of the hottest segments in India. One of the stalwarts of the segment is the Kia Seltos, which has one of the best cabins in the segment. With both SUVs loaded to the brim with features, here’s a full comparison of their features. We take you through their exterior, safety, technology and all sorts of convenience features that these cars get. Which one will prevail? Let’s find out.

The Sierra has one of the best interiors in the segment, and should also be the top choice if you want features. However, the Seltos isn’t far behind in terms of equipment. Taking forward the legacy of the previous iteration, the Sierra sports a unique combination of retro and modern when you look at its design. And this is going to appeal to many buyers.
The Sierra’s alloy wheels are one size above the ones you get with the Seltos X-Line. It also gets full-width LED DRLs and flush door handles over the Seltos. The Sierra comes with the Alpine window styling, which is not really an advantage over the Kia, but rather a cool-looking element.
There is no shortage of features on either side, but the Sierra inches ahead in terms of equipment. Over the Seltos, the Sierra stands out with its three screens, extended underthigh support, a 12-speaker JBL sound system, and manual Boss mode.
Do note that the Sierra’s triple-screen dashboard is limited to the top-spec variant only. Here’s how the interior looks in the lower variants.
However, the Seltos gets a head-up display over the Sierra. Both SUVs have plenty of common features like dual-zone climate control, ventilated seats, panoramic sunroof, 360-degree camera, and level-2 advanced driver assistance system (ADAS).
