The lineup starts with a 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine making 115 PS and 144 Nm, paired with either a 6-speed manual or a CVT automatic. For those who want stronger performance, the 1.5-litre turbo-petrol unit delivers 160 PS and 253 Nm, and comes with either a 6-speed iMT or a 7-speed DCT. Diesel lovers can opt for the 1.5-litre diesel engine producing 116 PS and 250 Nm, available with both a 6-speed manual and a 6-speed torque converter automatic.

    Rivals: The 2026 Kia Seltos steps into one of the toughest SUV segments in India, going up against key rivals like the Hyundai Creta, Maruti Grand Vitara, Maruti Victoris, Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder, Honda Elevate and the MG Astor. It will also face strong competition from the Tata Sierra and Tata Curvv, along with the German siblings, the Skoda Kushaq and Volkswagen Taigun. Looking ahead, the upcoming 2026 Renault Duster and its Nissan counterpart, the Tekton, are expected to further intensify the competition.
