What’s New?

Visually, both these variants look identical to the lower GT-Line and X-Line trims of the Seltos, and the difference mainly comes down to the expanded Level 2+ ADAS (advanced driver assistance systems) suite, which now adds features such as:

• Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control-Curve (NSSC-C)

• Highway Driving Assist (HDA)

• Front Collision-Avoidance Assist-Lane Change Side (FCA-LS)

• Front Collision-Avoidance Assist with Evasive Steering Assist (FCA-W/ ESA)

Other new features include an inbuilt front and rear dashcam, head-up display, rain-sensing wipers, digital key, one-touch up/down function for all windows, air purifier and connected car technology with VR and Navigation.

Besides these, the Seltos GTX (O) and X-Line (O) trims continue with equipment such as a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, 10-way power-adjustable driver seat, panoramic sunroof, ventilated front seats, 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, wireless phone chargers, 8-speaker Bose sound system and dual-zone climate control.

Notably, the Seltos also recently scored 5 stars at Bharat NCAP and has become the highest-rated ICE-powered car tested by the agency.
