Why is DRVM such an interesting feature to be mentioned by KIA. Isn't it just a normal rear view camera which works while driving forward as well ? It is completely software upgrade, the car just switches on the rear view camera in the display. It is present in the Venue as well. Not so useful when driving forward and when u do reverse the camera switches on anyways.

No DRVM; Dont they have a rear view camera at the back? I have a rear view camera which comes handy, kind of used to it now. After market is still an option here.

No 360 Camera; thats fine, its a small car.
Exactly my thoughts as well... GTX Auto with 6 airbags, minus these features is a livable option for me personally. Except for Rear View camera (which I am so used to and dependent on), all other features are good to have and not must to have. Would have definitely missed the sunroof, had it been panoramic (loved it in Jeep Compass and MG Hector).

Just now received these 15 photos from my dealer. These are the vehicles that are going to be displayed in their Hyderabad showrooms.

Is that a dark blue color I saw? It looked great.

My SA sent me the same sheet going around on this thread but admitted immediately that it wasn't official

Wow seems like Kia is doing a good job (apart from the variant list - seems a Hyundai person is appointed to this job )
Really like the integration of the Air purifier in the system, very neat. The keys also look nice.

@MukundanMK, Do share your first impressions if you are visiting the showroom and help this group of confused folks
Especially on the 6 airbags on the Top-End Diesel variant.

Looks like they have applied some sort of screen protector to protect the screens, which is logical. Many other parts are also covered with plastic protectors to prevent scratches too, which is good from Kia.

Even I felt the same, sadly its the same grey shade.

Is there any possibility of Kia offering the six airbags in HTX+ atleast as an option ?

Look at the difference in quality for Korean Seltos and Indian Seltos. Why Kia Why? Is it the only way for them to keep the cost in check? Feeling absolutely ashamed.

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

Apart from hoping that KIA gives an option to customers to choose the safety kit, I really hope that it is a wide car which can comfortably seat 3 people at the back. I had seen a camouflaged Seltos in April on my way to office and that seemed to be wider than Hyundai Creta.

We had a Renault Duster earlier and despite all its shortcomings, it had a wider cabin which could comfortably seat 3 people at the back. I really miss that in Creta.

I feel most of the Hyundai cars sold here can only seat 2 people comfortably in the back despite seeming wider from outside. Prime example is Hyundai Verna.

@D'Ro@dSt@r, the showroom is getting opened only by early next week. So I need to wait for some more time, before I can have a personal look and feel of the car. Regarding 6 airbags in HTX+, someone already confirmed in our group that it is ruled out. My salesperson also said that the display car is Diesel Top Variant and has only 2 airbags. We have to live with only what we are given.

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

Hi all,
I'm a fellow Indian looking to get a decent petrol CVT with safety options. Specifically I was looking towards 6 airbags and usually automatic comes with hill start assist.which is must than DRLs.. If hill start is not in the petrol automatic, I have to simply cancel my booking .

6 airbag is standard in other regions where Kia is launching this vehicle. Why Kia is not giving a safety kit atleast in India ???

Does any one in the shop knows if the petrol or diesel auto comes with hill start assist ?
