2023 Kia Seltos Facelift: A Bolder Look with Smarter Tech

The 2023 Kia Seltos has undergone a significant mid-cycle refresh, bringing in a host of upgrades in terms of design, safety, and technology. Since its debut in India in 2019, the Seltos quickly became a favorite among compact SUV buyers thanks to its premium feel, competitive pricing, and strong performance. With this facelift, Kia aims to raise the bar once again, keeping the Seltos in the spotlight as it battles segment heavyweights like the Hyundai Creta, MG Astor, and Volkswagen Taigun.
