Kia Seltos New Features – Expected Features Over Hyundai Creta

Auto Parking –

The new-gen Seltos was spotted with several 6-7 parking sensors, hinting towards a possibility of Auto Park feature. It is not yet confirmed, but we can expect the new Seltos to get a fully auto park setup, else with some features like auto parallel park. This feature will help owners to park the vehicle in tight spots.

Ventilated Rear Seats –

Another feature that Kia might add on the Seltos is the ventilated rear seat function. The same was offered with the Kia Syros, and most likely this feature can be carried over to other models. In Kia Syros, the rear ventilation is offered only with the seat-base – with Seltos, the brand can offer full ventilation feature (comprising top and base of seat).

Reclining & Sliding Rear Seats –

To offer more comfort, we expect the new-gen Kia Seltos to get a reclining and sliding rear seat option. Most of the cars in the segment have the reclining feature, but the sliding feature helps to increase the legroom.
