  The new Kia Seltos is characterised by distinctive design details, lending the compact SUV an air of understated sportiness.

  It combines forward-looking technical features, class-leading space and a suite of world-class safety features, and is powered by a choice of highly-efficient Smartstream petrol and diesel engines.

  Speaking at the launch, Kia Motors president and chief executive Han-Woo Park said the Seltos is aimed at “youthful, tech-savvy buyers and is packed full of our most cutting-edge technology and safety equipment.

  “The world premiere is a significant milestone for Kia as it shows our commitment to the Indian market – and this is just the beginning. We have big plans for Kia in this wonderful country.”

  We don’t yet know whether the Kia Seltos will be coming to Singapore, but there’s no reason it won’t be.

  Kia’s positioning itself as a youthful, sporty brand and the Seltos fits right into that.

  We wager that if the Seltos comes to Singapore, it will get the turbocharged 1.6-litre petrol engine making 175hp, mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.

  The Kia Seltos gets a Drive Mode Select system that lets drivers adapt the car to their preferred style or the road conditions. Drivers can choose from ‘Normal’, ‘Eco’ and ‘Sport’ mode.

  The Seltos offers distinctive exterior design details, such as its long hood, a strong, character line on the front bumper, and sharp lines pressed into the bodywork.

  It also sports a wide ‘tiger nose grille’, making the car instantly recognisable as a Kia, but with a difference.

  ts robust shoulder line and glasshouse shape, which tapers towards the rear of the car, lends the compact SUV an air of understated sportiness. The rear bumper with a metallic muffler effect accentuates this dynamic appearance.
