Pros Cons of Tata Nexon EV

Pros

  • Impressive real-world range of 340-350 km in the long-range (LR) version
  • Feature-rich cabin with a large 12.3-inch touchscreen and ventilated seats
  • Smooth and responsive acceleration with 215 Nm of torque

Cons

  • Some software glitches, including charging indicators and infotainment connectivity issues
  • Range drops significantly with spirited driving
  • AC and data port access are awkwardly placed

Verdict

The Tata Nexon EV remains India's best-selling electric vehicle for good reason. It offers solid performance, practical range, and a host of modern features. While it has a few software quirks and charging concerns in real-world usage, its low running costs and overall practicality make it an attractive option for city dwellers. The Nexon EV strikes a fine balance between price, performance, and everyday usability, justifying its position as the market leader.

Pros Cons of Kia Seltos

Pros

  • The 2023 facelift brings a modern look with updated LED headlights, a larger grille, and 18-inch alloys, enhancing its street presence.
  • Advanced tech features like dual 10.25-inch displays, wireless Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and Bose 8-speaker audio system offer a premium in-cabin experience.
  • Safety is enhanced with Level 2 ADAS, including features like Front Collision Avoidance and Lane Keep Assist, providing extra peace of mind.

Cons

  • The diesel variant lacks a manual gearbox, which may disappoint traditional drivers who prefer full control over gear shifts.
  • Though the iMT option is available, it can be cumbersome and may take time to get used to compared to a conventional manual.
  • The rear seat experience is marred by a limited view for taller passengers due to the high window line, and the stiffer suspension can compromise ride comfort over uneven surfaces

Verdict

The 2023 Kia Seltos offers a blend of style, tech, and safety, making it a compelling choice in the compact SUV segment. While it may have a few downsides, such as the lack of a manual diesel option and a slightly stiff suspension, the Seltos shines with its powerful turbo engine, high-tech cabin, and comprehensive safety features. It's a great option for those seeking a modern, feature-rich SUV at an attractive price.
