Update 12/05/2021 - Kia has updated the 2021 Seltos with a new logo and has included some features in the lower-spec and mid-spec variants. Kia Seltos is now priced from Rs 9.95 lakh to Rs 17.84 lakh, ex-showroom, Delhi.
Kia Motors India is doing really well in the Indian market. The Seltos was the first car of the Korean carmaker in India and it marked big milestones. Then we saw the launch of the extravagant Carnival which also curated its own segment and fanbase in India. Kia is coming up with the Sonet compact SUV this which will be the third car from the brand. Thanks to Hyundai's brand image, we trust on Kia blindly but does Kia offer affordable service? We have explained the service cost for the Kia Seltos below.
We have taken two service intervals of 30,000km and 50,000km for reference here. Like most other cars, the Seltos also has a service interval of 10,000km or 1 year, whichever is earlier.
