Facelifted 2023 Kia Seltos Deliveries Commence Just Four Days Post Its India Launch

• 2023 Kia Seltos facelift deliveries are underway.

• Kia had garnered over 13,000 bookings prior to the price announcement.

• The Kia Seltos is offered in three broad trims.

• Prices for the facelifted Seltos range between Rs 10.89 lakh and Rs 19.99 lakh.

The facelifted Kia Seltos took its sweet time from making its global debut to being finally revealed in India and getting launched sometime after that. It was a long journey indeed, but thankfully, Kia isn’t keeping its customers waiting anymore. It hasn’t even been a whole week since its launch and the compact SUV has already started reaching customers' homes.

Unofficial bookings for the facelifted Kia Seltos have been open since late June, and Kia divulged that it had garnered over 13,000 bookings even before the prices were announced. Understandably, quite a few people are interested in one, so this early delivery move could help Kia keep the waiting times in check.

Of course, K-Code customers have been given priority ahead of others. For the unversed, K-Code was a unique code that Kia offered to old Seltos owners, promising them priority delivery if they book the facelifted Seltos on 14th July. 

The Korean marque offers the revised Seltos in three trims which further branch out into a whopping 18 variants. There’s a whole bunch of differences between the trims, not just in terms of features but also in the notable design cues that set them apart. The variant-wise features of the facelifted Seltos can be found here. We’ve also compared the styling differences between its X-Line and Tech Line trims with the GT Line.

Underneath the hood, the facelifted Kia Seltos continues with the outgoing model’s 115PS/144Nm 1.5-litre petrol and 116PS/250Nm 1.5-litre diesel engines. The former can be paired to a 6-speed manual or CVT, while the diesel is offered with either a 6-speed iMT (clutchless manual) or 6-speed AT. But the newcomer within the powertrain options is the 160PS 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine, which can be paired to either a 6-speed iMT or a 7-speed DCT.  Head over here if you want to know its variant-wise engine and gearbox combos.

With the facelift, prices of the Seltos have gone up ever so slightly and now range between Rs 10.89 lakh and Rs 19.99 lakh (ex-showroom). It continues to rival the likes of the Hyundai Creta, Maruti Grand Vitara, MG Astor, Skoda Kushaq, VW Taigun, Tata Harrier, MG Hector, and the upcoming Honda Elevate and Citroen C3 Aircross.
