2023 Kia Seltos Facelift Design Details

The Seltos facelift boasts a couple of design changes at the front and rear profiles. Up front, it gets a larger grille with a new mesh pattern. The LED headlights get a revision and sit a little lower, whereas the LED DRLs now find their way inside the grille, rather than sitting atop the grille like in the current model. The lower bumper also gets a revision but the ice-cubed fog lights are unchanged.

Around the side, the Seltos facelift remains similar to the current model, save for the new design for the alloy wheels. At the rear, the Seltos facelift gains a connected LED light bar for the tail lights, which have also grown bigger and received a design overhaul. The facelift makes the SUV look a lot fresher and bolder over the current Seltos.

2023 Kia Seltos Facelift Interior And Features

The upcoming India-bound Seltos facelift could feature a connected, twin-screen setup. Each screen could measure up to 10.25-inches in size, similar to the ones in the all-electric Kia EV6. Furthermore, the dashboard could also get a few revisions along with a generous use of soft-touch materials. The space and practicality inside the cabin is unlikely to see any change. Like the current Seltos, the facelift will not offer a panoramic sunroof. However, considering the popularity of panoramic sunroofs in the segment, Kia may offer a panoramic sunroof in the top variants of the Seltos facelift.

In terms of features, Kis have added advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). Currently, the MG Astor is the only SUV in its class to offer ADAS features and the Seltos is likely to follow suit soon. It is likely to boast features such as automatic emergency braking, lane keeping assist, blind spot detection and adaptive cruise control.
