Unable to open the pdf attachment. This must be some old brochure. GTX+ Auto is coming for sure. This has been unofficially verified with my Kia contact also. Hearing now from my source that there will be no change in the no of airbags in Diesel topend models (will not have 6 airbags)

Attaching the screenshot of the variant list. Look at point 6 under performance. Is this same as old pdf? I have not seen it.

The dealer in Kolkata has confirmed GTX+ in DCT. So no worries. I have changed my booking to steel silver.

For Nexon I measured
(100*55*(70+40)/2)/1000 this works out to be 302L and another 10L on the sides so a total of 312L. So the 350L is including the spare for Nexon as well.

Top variants to be introduced only after a month.

We can now confirm the top-spec variants of the Kia Seltos automatic will be introduced a month after the SUV's launch. The range-topping X+ automatic variants of the Kia Seltos petrol and diesel will come a month down the line to make the Seltos' price range look attractive at launch, a strategy often followed by carmakers.

Great. So practically the Nexon in a sub 4m footprint has almost as much bootspace as the Seltos.
There is no uniform practice though among manufacturers on the boot space on whether to include the spare tyre space or not. Some are doing it while others are not. I had also started a thread on this and it will be helpful if you put the Nexon details there too. Thanks.

re: The Kia Seltos SUV (SP Concept). EDIT : Launched at Rs. 9.69 lakhs

My parents saw the Seltos for the first time in flesh today and they liked everything but mentioned that the height from inside seems small (they had no previous clue on dimensions).

Why are many people mentioning the height is smaller when it is literally 1 cm difference in the exterior dimensions. Are the seats inside higher than Hyundai Creta or what?

The Creta is taller by 45mm, or 4 and a half cm.

Dear mods please note that whenever a pdf is uploaded to tbhp, it gets corrupted. Same thing happened with me and i have seen multiple instances of the same.
Kindly inform the IT team

Rather than pure dimensions, I think its got to do with the appearance of the car. The Seltos looks wider and more low slung compared to the Creta. Speaking of the interiors, maybe it has something to do with the sunroof.
