Pros Cons of Volvo XC90

Pros

  • Sharp Exterior Design
  • Comfortable Cabin
  • Loaded On The Feature Front

Cons

  • Climate Control Option Is Confusing
  • Touchscreen Takes Effort
  • Lacks Outright Performance

Verdict

The Volvo delivers an impressive performance without directly contesting the V6 or V8 SUVs. Its combined output of 400bhp, sourced from the electric motor and the 4-cylinder engine, is commendably robust. The vehicle operates smoothly and, when switched to Pure Mode, can cover slightly over 40 kilometres solely on electric power. Additionally, it offers instant torque, thanks to the electric motor's ability to provide maximum torque from a standstill, ensuring responsive and dynamic acceleration right from the get-go.

Pros Cons of Kia Seltos

Pros

  • Premium interior vibe
  • Packed with modern features 
  • Refined performance

Cons

  • Ride could have been more relaxing
  • Turbo-petrol's low mileage

Verdict

The new Kia Seltos is quite aspirational with its premium interior, tech features, and smooth performance. It stands out with its new design and improved ride comfort. As a result, it makes for a strong contender in the mid-size SUV segment, offering a blend of performance, comfort, and technology.
