How does Mahindra Thar 4x2 LX Automatic fare as an urban SUV rival to Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos?
28 January 2025 11:15
I would say it's competitive, in its own way. Sure, it might not have all the bells and whistles, but it’s built like a tank and has presence on the road that the soft roaders can’t match.
Does the Kia Seltos X-Lines sporty style match up to its performance?
03 January 2025 12:27
I believe it’s a good compromise. While not as practical as most SUVs in its class, it is also far sportier. Also, the looks alone make me feel as if I'm driving something special.
Is paying a premium for the regular Seltos worth it when you can get the X Line exclusive features?
03 January 2025 12:27
The cool features of the X-Line are there, but I'd prefer that those be available as individual options versus as a whole package. I want to be able to pick and choose what I want.
Does the Seltos X-Line’s interior quality hold up to more premium brands?
03 January 2025 12:27
For a Kia, it’s good, but it’s not up to par with a true luxury brand. Some areas feel cheap, in terms of plastics, and the overall fit and finish doesn't quite make it, either.
In real world driving, does the Seltos X-Line’s DCT transmission live up to the hype?
03 January 2025 12:27
I think it’s a bit overkill for a car like this. Most drivers don’t see much real world benefit for the complexity and potential reliability issues added by the DCT.
Is Kia Seltos X Line's matte paint worth the extra hassle of maintenance?
03 January 2025 12:27
Totally worth it! My X-Line has matte paint on it, and people turn their heads when I go anywhere. It’s not the most beautiful car around, but it needs some more TLC, which is what owning a unique car is all about.
The Kia Seltos' safety rating: Is it a deal-breaker, or is something else more important?
03 January 2025 12:18
Being someone who switched from a 5 star rated car to the Seltos, I do feel the difference in build quality. However, the Seltos more than makes up for it with better visibility and handling, both of which factor into safety.
Is the Kia Seltos really that good or have they just been good at marketing?
03 January 2025 12:18
Clever marketing for sure. I tried one out for a test drive and was underwhelmed. The car felt stiff and the safety ratings are a joke for a car at this price. You’re buying bells and whistles and not substance.
The long term reliability and maintenance cost of Kia Seltos?
03 January 2025 12:18
Kia's warranty is great, but I am concerned that if I have to call on it down the road the parts and the bill will not be as good as the warranty. It's nice tech features, but I don't know how that's going to hold up.
Is the Kia Seltos' infotainment system all it's built up to be, or is it just a big flash with no substance?
03 January 2025 12:18
I’m a tech enthusiast, and I’m impressed. Actually, the voice commands work good and the UI is clean and easy to navigate as well. I think it's one of the best systems I've used in a car.
The Kia Seltos is a compact SUV, but how does it ride compared to other compact SUVs on Indian roads?
03 January 2025 12:18
I’ve taken my Seltos on some pretty rough roads and it’s held up well. It has a good enough ground clearance and doesn’t bottom out easily. You do definitely feel the bumps more than in some other SUVs, but yeah.
