Kia Motors made its Indian debut in August 2019 with the launch of the Seltos mid-size SUV and it set the sales chart on fire. The Seltos was one of the most loved and best-selling cars of 2019. Even today, the Kia Seltos is selling in very good numbers and it is because of this car that Kia achieved the One Lakh sales milestone in India within just eleven months. Recently, the Seltos turned One in India. To commemorate this occasion, the company will soon launch the Anniversary Edition of Kia Seltos. So, let's have a closer look at its images and all other details.
The Kia Seltos Anniversary Edition has leaked on the internet and also it has started arriving at Kia dealerships across the country. The anniversary edition of the Seltos will be based on the mid-spec HTX trim. Since it will be a limited edition ' first-anniversary' variant, it will be sold only for a limited period of time. Talking about the changes, the anniversary edition of the Seltos will get plenty of updates. It will feature new tusk shape front skid plate with silver diffuser fins, raven black skid plate with silver diffuser fins and tangerine dual muffler design at the rear.
