Google maps

2.3

Issue 1 The map is a complete waste. I entered the location of my club and it navigates me to a hospital.The map has no idea about the traffic, as there is no realtime calculation of traffic. Google maps are far better than the inbuilt kia mapsI have communicated with my dealer i.e Shreenath Kia, Thane. The name of my sales person was Varun, He suggested us to use google maps. The map was a huge attraction for the customer but in real it is of no use. Issue 2The second issue is always the mileage. Kia commits its 16.7kmpl average, but in reality the average is about 8-9 kmpl for the petrol dct variant. The average is 50% less than claimed by kia.When I raised the complaint about average. I was informed it will give you this average at expressway. Will we drive daily to expressway?Issue 3Kia took some additional insurance amount by mistake and after 2 weeks of continuous follow up, we still haven’t got any reply from kia.

Actually Kia Seltos is a very good car

Actually Kia Seltos is a very good car now it has covered 12000kms maintaining very well earlier when I bought this car it was running like buttered and was getting a mileage of 15 kms per liter after crossing 9000kms its performance and mileage in city has come down i think the car needs petrol additive which brand is recommended i don't know and i also started using premium petrol only but recently a kia service mechanic advised me not to cross 2 rpm and i knocked a mileage of 17.8 per liter on the express highway so what might be the problem with not performing like earlier and i inflate the car tires regularly three or four days and I have a tire pressure monitor system on my car and my tyre pressure is 36psi i would like to see some good advice about proper maintenance of my car earlier which i used to have pleasure in driving what should I do to improve performance should i add engine oil additive ok nice driving.

Not A Good Option

I am writing this review after 6 months of driving a Kia Seltos. Don't waste your hard-earned money on this car. There is a heating issue in the engine. You will drive for around continuously 2 hours then this issue will come. A continuously beeping sound will come until the engine is not cool. And for complete cool down you have to wait for 2 hours. Before that, if you are starting then after a few km of drive you will face the same issue. Another issue is auto Android disconnection while on a long drive. Don't think it will give mileage Sales person told me it will give 15kmpl in the city and 17 km on the highway. But in reality 6-7 kmpl in the city and around 10kmpl in the highway. Sometimes in the city, it will be 3-4kmpl if you are in traffic. Don't think if mileage is low then performance will be good. You can't race with a hatchback car. Sometimes Nano will give you competition. If you are highlighting any issue with Kia then they will give some silly reason.

Move ahead

Hi, I have purchased seltos htk imt diesel, It was delivered 2 weeks back.Existing imt users, Anyone faced issues with creep/crawl/hill start assist functionality in first gear in imt gearbox, When i am stuck at traffic signals, And roads has small slopes like 5 degrees or 10 degrees, Then in first gear, The crawl/hill start assist functionality does not work as expected, My car rolls backwards slightly and i have to manually press accelerator asap to avoid further rollback.The car does not hold for 3 seconds at all, It rolls backwards as soo as i release the break.Same thing happens for reverse gear, If there is 5-10 degrees slope, Car moves forward, And i have to press accelerator asap to avoid movement ahead.Fyi, Hill assist feature working fine on steep slopes in hilly roads, Mall ramps.The car holds for 2-3 seconds and enough time to move ahead without rollback.

PERFORMANCE IS FINE , ROAD

Performance is fine, Road grip is good, But failure in fuel efficiency bumper to bumper mileage in petrol is 3 - 5 kmpl and in city 7 - 9 kmpl.This is disgusting.

Automobile company

1.0

Pathetic after-sales service.My car went in for accidental damage claim.Though i was promised a cashless claim in writing, It wasn't approved, Idk why.My car has been in the kia service center for over 3 weeks and yet they do not have the complete parts to fix it.When i call them, They keep on delaying and no listening or proper grievance redressal mechanism is in place at all.Worst experience than any other automobile company ever.Buy from kia only if you would like to waste your time, Effort and get irritated while they sit there and do nothing about it.

7 Months and 10000 Km into

7 months and 10000 km into owning the car find it unrealiable and poor build quality with sudden car stopping using the services of rsa to get it towed to the service station with each time the car takin over 15 days to get repaired as parts are simply not available with service station.With such experience am more comfortable using my 7 year old honda car rather than new kia as the discomfort simply dosent allow my conscious to use it on long journeys.Avoidable product as it's unreliable.

Comfort level

4.7

1.Driving experience and comfort level: i must say this car provides extreme luxury at this price point.The car is very silent and the ambient lighting provides sense of calmness and luxury during night drives.2.Mileage and performance:the mileage is descent enough for the power it delivers.The turbo engine provides enormous torque and power to bring in fun and joy driving the car.3.Aftersales service:kia has setup a good service infrastructure and i have no complaints yet.Servicing is done efficiently and customer satisfaction is completely taken care of.Would definitely recommend to those who want to have a great mixture of power and luxury at this price point.

The Best SUV's

3.3

Kia has tuned the suspension of the seltos perfectly for city use and it is only the really bad pot-holes which filter through the cabin.The steering offers decent feedback for daily use.The suv remains stable on the highways and has minimal body-roll.Speaking about the performance, The turbo-lag is well controlled.The turbo petrol offers enthusiastic performance and feels eager.
