Here we have listed the eight common features that Kia Seltos sold in India and Kia Telluride, winner of the 2020 World Car of the Year,
Kia Motors India made a strong impression among domestic customers with its debut product, the Seltos. The midsize SUV was introduced in August 2019 and rose to fame in no time. It started beating Hyundai Creta on the monthly sales chart only for the trend to continue, except in December 2019.
South Korea’s auto race was all with the Seltos as it comes with a wide range of engine and transmission options. In addition, the list of features and the price range attract a large band of customers who want to have a five-seater SUV. You may have already known this, but do you know that Seltos and Telluride have several points in common?
If not, the list of features will shed light on their common nature. For starters, the Kia Telluride is a flagship eight-seat SUV that is sold in world markets and has the biggest footprint for any production Kia model. Additionally, he recently won the coveted World Car of the Year 2020 award.
This places a lot of emphasis on the common characteristics between Kia Telluride and Kia Seltos in the technology, security, comfort, convenience and connectivity departments.
1. Infotainment with 10.25 inch touch screen:
The 10.25-inch HD touchscreen infotainment system is at the heart of the action and displays the navigation and information surrounding the audio, as well as acting as the driver’s rear view monitor and parking guide. The screen can even be customized with a pinch to zoom in and out of maps.
2. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto:
Another common feature between Kia Seltos and Telluride is Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity. It helps in the easy integration of smartphones to make calls and send text messages through voice command. In addition, Google Maps can also be used to access music, predictive navigation and Siri voice control, among other applications.
3. UVO link telematics:
Kia’s UVO Connect technology has certainly made a difference when comparing the Seltos to its rivals and covers five categories, namely navigation, security, vehicle management, remote control and comfort. It is also equipped with an AI powered voice recognition service to provide a safer and smarter connected car experience. Remote start of the smartphone engine is another useful feature.
4. Wireless charger for smart phones and electric sunroof:
The Seltos has the charging platform that allows you to charge a mobile phone wirelessly, just like the Telluride, while the electric sunroof gives the feeling of being outdoors and is predominantly preferred by modern SUV buyers.
5. Ventilated seats:
One of the modern features of the Kia Seltos and Telluride have in common in the ventilated front seats that they use fans and small perforations to improve driver and passenger comfort.
6. High line tire pressure monitor:
More often than not, people don’t care much about their car tire pressure, which does have an impact on mileage. Therefore, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) at Seltos provides convenience and acts as an additional preventive safety measure. It does this by constantly monitoring the tire inflation pressures on all four tires as on the Telluride and warns through the light in the instrument cluster if the pressures drop below a certain range.
7. Blind Vision Monitor (BVM):
Kia has ensured that Seltos is not lacking in security bits and therefore a range of assistive and security technologies is provided in high-end variants including the Blind View Monitor (BVM). It gives the driver a live video of the car’s blind spot within the instrument cluster. Video is recorded on the mirror mounted camera when turn signals are activated.
8. HAC (Hill Start Assist Control):
Both the Kia Seltos and Telluride are sold with Hill Start Assist Control (HAC). It’s another layer of safety when moving from a stop on steep climbs. Prevent the vehicle from rolling backwards by gradually applying the brakes for two seconds while moving your foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator.
