Welcome to the forum @Kuruvis, how long have you been waiting for your Seltos to be delivered?

@CountryRoads, thanks for the response. I've booked my seltos towards end of July 19, extactly 27/07. Day 1 onwards, I was very clear on my variant selection which is diesel automatic and black color since I used to this specification with other brands. When i spoke to the local dealer here, he said that if this variant is realeased (initially diesel gtx+ disel auto wasnt launched), mine will be the first vehicle in my district as I did specifically booked for this variant. However, I realised thay since its launch and delivery started, few vehicles of this variant are on roads and first vehicle given to a so called kerala style "vip". The behaviour of the sales guy whom with the booking was made like he is a korean and owns Kia (sigh)

Thanks
B

Aw man I'm sorry to hear that's it's been that long and the sales guy was like that. It's ridiculous sometimes dealing with dealers. Have they told you when you can expect to get your Seltos?

That's nuts man, sorry to hear. Are you enjoying your Seltos at the very least?

Overall good, especially feature rich! However, lacks sturdiness of european brands on rough roads/terrains.

What's your favorite Seltos feature? and when you say sturdiness, do you mean that you bounce around on rough roads?

 

[Kuruvis]

Instead of seltos features per se, I would like the over all look and feel. On rough roads, its noisy and you could feel the bumpiness inside.

Thanks! This is a helpful precaution especially for me who wants a smooth ride & practically visits the mechanic karlknudsen.com.au every two weeks.

Is that with FWD? If so I wonder how the ride compares with AWD.
