Pros Cons of Kia Seltos

Pros

  • The turbo-petrol engine is incredibly fast
  • A solid, up-to-date safety suite
  • The dual 12.3-inch screens
  • Still offers a proper diesel engine

Cons

  • Stiff suspension on broken city roads
  • The turbo-petrol engine has lower fuel economy
  • Top-spec GTX and X-Line variants are very expensive
  • Rear headroom is slightly tight for tall passengers

Verdict

The Kia Seltos is one apt car that offers a powertrain combination for literally every type of buyer, whether you want cheap daily commutes with the NA petrol, high mileage with the diesel, or aggressive speed with the turbo-petrol. Kia also listened to the consumer base and fixed its biggest flaw by securing a five-star crash safety rating. The only real downside is the firm ride quality over bad roads. But if you can live with feeling a few bumps in the city, the Kia Seltos gets most of the other driving essentials right.

As Seshan concludes,

“The new-gen Seltos raises the bar. It’s bolder and more distinctive.”

Pros Cons of MINI Countryman

Pros

  • Strong Road Presence
  • Premium Fit And Finish
  • Good Handling And Performance

Cons

  • Ride Quality Could Be Better
  • Rear Seat Comfort Not The Best
  • Limited Sales & Service Outlets

Verdict

The Mini Countryman is that one mini that is more practical when it comes to space and its SUVish character appeals to many. It brings out the key factor of great dynamics the brand is well known for yet remains exclusive in a sea of SUVs. The Countryman also feels well priced even if it is more expensive that other models of the British brand sold in India.
