Kia India has hiked the prices for its Seltos SUV. However, the price hike is because all the variants of the SUV now get 6 airbags as standard. This makes the Seltos the only model in its segment to feature 6 airbags as standard. The Seltos is not the only model in Kia’s lineup to feature 6 airbags as standard. The Kia Carens MPV also gets 6 airbags across the variants.
Earlier, only the HTX+, GTX(O), GTX+ & X-Line variants of the Seltos came with 6 airbags. When Kia launched the Seltos in India, the lower variants only came with dual-airbags as standard. However, when Kia updated the model for 2022 in April, the Seltos got a minimum of 4 airbags as standard across the range.
Kia has not made any changes apart from the price hike and inclusion of 6 airbags. The price hike depends upon the variant. The price hike ranges from INR 4,000 to INR 30,000. The variant to get the least price hike is the 1.4-litre turbo-petrol GTX+. The majority of variants have received a price hike of INR 30,000. Below is the updated price list –
