2026 Kia Seltos Road Test Review - All Issues Fixed?

The new 2026 Kia Seltos is finally here, and I got the opportunity to test drive its both 1.5L petrol DCT and 1.5L diesel AT during its media drive in and around Bengaluru. I drove both the cars for about 120KMs to see if Kia has managed to address all the issues its previous-gen model had. I mainly focused on 4-5 aspects including overall safety, ride quality, driving dynamics, highway stability, NVH levels along with realistic milage one can expect from the two powertrains.
