    Thank you guys for tuning in. On the 02:24 and 03:49 the wrong b-roll is shown, I have checked, but I think something went wrong while rendering the video. Sorry again, and I will be more careful! Thank you guys!

    I really liked the Kia Seltos and if they ever decide to put a decent Motor in it I would buy it in a second but having the same Motor as the Soul in a AWS simply doesn't work for me in day to day traffic. I don't want to have to do the slingshot everytime I want to pass another car at On ramp or Freeway speeds.

    Hey man… I absolutely love your Chanel!!! I’m in the market for a new Kia or Hyundai… because they offer the best value by far! I’m on the fence for a normal ICE; hybrid, plug in hybrid or FULL electric! As far as I’m concerned, your videos are super important. I would love a Kona N. Or an Ionic 5, or Kia Telliride or Seltos or sportage hybrid or plug in hybrid, or Hyundai SantFe…. There are literally 20+ Korean models I would love to purchase. My budget is 50k…. However it is hard to find certain models here in the north east US. All electric cars are sold out and dealers are charging extra for any orders. PLEASE KEEP BRINGING THE LATEST MODEL INFORMATION…. I know there are more to come. Your videos provide me with the latest Korean auto info! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK! Thank you so much… from New Jersey, USA 😎👍

    Besides the engine choice and dashboard layout, is there any fundamental diffrecence between Seltos for developed country (Korean made) and emerging country (Indian made)? Do both use the same platform?

    • @NeoGee
      @NeoGee 2 года назад +2

      A very quick and easy internet search revealed the info you wanted.
      The first variation is the largest version of the Seltos, which is manufactured in South Korea (codename: SP2) mainly aimed for developed markets, including North America and Australasia. The two other variations are the Indian-made Seltos (codename: SP2i) and the closely related Chinese version badged as the Kia KX3 (codename: SP2c). The SP2i and SP2c models are the low-cost versions of the Seltos to penetrate emerging markets, built on the Hyundai-Kia K2 platform and closely related to the second-generation Hyundai Creta/ix25. Despite being a globally marketed model, the Seltos is not sold in the European market.[14]
