The Kia Seltos was first launched in 2019 and received its first facelift in 2023. Kia is now working on the second-generation update for this model, and the test mule has been spotted again recently. The upcoming next-gen Seltos will come with an extensive update to the exterior, interior, and features.
Based on recent and past spy shots, the 2026 Kia Seltos appears to feature a new front fascia and updated rear design. The side profile is also expected to get some design tweaks. Inside, the next-gen Seltos is likely to come with a new dashboard and other updates to the cabin.
The upcoming next-gen Seltos is expected to feature a triple-screen setup, ventilated seats, panoramic sunroof, a wireless charger, dual-zone climate control, rear AC vents, six airbags, parking sensors, all-wheel disc brakes, TPMS, EPB with auto hold, a Level 2 ADAS suite, and more.
The next-gen Kia Seltos is expected to feature similar engine options as the outgoing Seltos, including a 1.5L petrol engine, a 1.5L turbo petrol, and a 1.5L diesel engine.
The next-gen Kia Seltos is expected to be launched by the end of this year. It will continue to compete with rivals such as the Skoda Kushaq, Hyundai Creta, Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara, and Volkswagen Taigun, among others.
The 2026 Kia Seltos price is expected to fall between Rs 12.00 lakh and Rs 22.00 lakh (ex-showroom price).
