New Delhi: The SUV segment in the domestic market is already filled with several cars that come with the latest features and are competing to be the fastest. Among these cars are the Kia Seltos facelift and the Honda Elevate. Let’s discuss the features of these cars that can set them apart from others in the competition.
The Honda Elevate is Honda’s first SUV, which has been designed with a focus on ground clearance and comfort. Its chrome-rich grille adds to its styling appeal. On the other hand, the Seltos offers a sporty look with its new grille and lighting design. The previous part of the Seltos appears wider due to the presence of tail lights and its tweaked style.
Speaking of the cabin, it is similar to the Elevate. It features traditional light colors and soft-touch materials, along with dual-tone upholstery. It also has dials and a steering wheel similar to the Honda City. However, it comes with a larger 10.25-inch touchscreen. The Seltos, on the other hand, comes with a dual touchscreen setup and a new interior. The Elevate includes features like ADAS, a sunroof, climate control, lane watch camera, and wireless charging. The Seltos is ready to give tough competition with similar features. In addition, the Seltos also offers dual-zone climate control and a panoramic sunroof as standard features. Both SUVs come with several standard features.
Engine-wise, the Elevate will be offered with only one engine, a 1.5L petrol unit, paired with automatic and manual transmissions. The Seltos, on the other hand, will come with at least three engine options. It includes a new 1.5L turbo petrol engine, which makes it the most powerful SUV in this segment. Additionally, it will also be offered with a diesel option.
In conclusion, the Seltos offers multiple features and engine options, while the Elevate focuses more on space and ground clearance. The Seltos has made efforts to make its interior more premium compared to its predecessor. Based on these factors, you can choose your preferred option.
