Kia Seltos HTE Variant Introduces Exciting New Colour Options

Still, rolling in the success of increased demand for SUVs in India, Kia Motors is updating its lineup of the popular Seltos. The carmaker has declared that new colour options for the HTE variant of Kia Seltos would be launched to increase its popularity even for new-age consumers. Besides the above colours, it is now offered in a total of seven dazzling colours: the new colour offers Imperial Blue, Pewter Olive, Intense Red, Gravity Grey and Aurora Black Pearl.

Expanding the Colour Palette

The Kia Seltos has garnered enough attention as a potent player in the mid-size SUV market once the new model was introduced. These new bright colours will help Kia to attract more clients who are interested in customization, the company said. Furthermore, the choice of colours also provides an opportunity for the buyer to create their unique image while embodying the main idea of modern vehicles being stylish and, at the same time, safe. The Seltos HTE, especially, stands to benefit from these novelties in the marketplace to first-time SUV entrants and young working individuals.

Comprehensive Lineup of Variants

The Kia Seltos is now available in an impressive 26 trims, reflecting the brand’s commitment to catering to diverse customer preferences and needs. This extensive lineup includes the recently introduced GTX line, which is geared toward enthusiasts seeking a sportier driving experience. While the HTE variant retains its fundamental features and specifications, it stands out by providing fresh colour options that can attract buyers looking for value without compromising on aesthetics.

Engine Options and Performance

Despite the exciting updates in colour, the core specifications of the Seltos HTE variants remain unchanged. The SUV continues to be powered by a naturally aspirated 1.5-litre petrol engine or a 1.5-litre diesel engine, both of which are mated to a smooth manual gearbox. This setup ensures a reliable driving experience while delivering commendable fuel efficiency, making it an attractive option for urban commuters and long-distance travellers alike.

The petrol engine delivers a balance of performance and efficiency, while the diesel variant appeals to those prioritizing torque and fuel economy. Kia's engineering prowess is evident in the Seltos's ability to perform well in various driving conditions, whether in congested city traffic or on open highways.

Advanced Engine Options in Higher Trims

For buyers seeking enhanced performance, the Kia Seltos also offers a range of advanced engine options across its other trims. One of the most notable additions is the new turbocharged 1.5-litre petrol engine that churns out an impressive 158bhp. This engine is paired with a dual-clutch transmission (DCT), ensuring rapid gear shifts and a dynamic driving experience. In addition to the DCT, customers can choose from various gearbox options, including an intelligent manual transmission (iMT), a continuously variable transmission (CVT), and a traditional torque converter automatic.

This extensive range of engine and transmission choices empowers customers to select the variant that best fits their driving style and requirements. Whether one prioritizes fuel efficiency or a more spirited performance, the Kia Seltos delivers on all fronts.

Conclusion

Kia's strategic move to update the Seltos HTE variant with new colour options underscores its commitment to staying relevant in a competitive SUV market. By broadening the available shades and maintaining robust engine choices, Kia is positioned to continue its strong sales trajectory in India. The Seltos not only reflects modern aesthetics but also embodies practicality and versatility, making it an ideal choice for a wide array of customers.

As the automotive landscape evolves, the Kia Seltos remains a testament to the brand's innovative spirit and dedication to customer satisfaction. With a combination of stylish design, diverse trims, and appealing new colour options, the Kia Seltos is set to further solidify its place as one of the leading SUVs in the Indian market.
