Kia Seltos celebrates 2 lakh milestone in 2 years

The brand has sold over 1.5 lakh cars equipped with the connected tech, of which the Seltos claims the largest share. Also, Kia reports that the company has sold over 2 lakh units of Seltos (with and without the connected tech).

Since its launch two years ago, Kia has managed to sell 2 lakh units of the Seltos. Interestingly, 45% of buyers opted for the diesel variant, 58% chose the top-of-the-line variants, and 35% went for the automatic variants. The newly launched iMT variants of the Seltos have seen impressive traction, says Kia.

Kia has also managed to sell over 1.5 lakh cars with connected tech, with the Seltos claiming 78% of the total number. The Kia Sonet, on the other hand, contributed almost 19% to the total connected cars sold by the company in India. The Kia Seltos HTX, with the 1.5-litre petrol engine, has been the choice of most customers.

Speaking on the milestones, Mr Tae-Jin Park, Executive Director and Chief Sales & Business Strategy Officer, Kia India said, 'Success milestones are always a huge boost to motivation, as it enhances our passion for serving customers better. These back-to-back milestones are a testament to our commitment to bringing a revolution in the auto industry and catering to the new age, young-at-heart dynamic buyers with class-leading premium products. The Indian PV market is undergoing a transformation due to changing customer trends, increased desire for the latest features, and cutting-edge connected-car technology. We have made a conscious decision to launch game-changing products in popular segments, introducing customers to a whole new experience of owning a Kia. Witnessing such immense love and trust for brand Kia in just two years is truly humbling for us.'
