Talking Cars in a Kia Seltos 1.5 petrol IMT

  • Опубликовано: 13 сен 2021
  • The Seltos is the only car in its class to offer an IMT - a clutchless manual. Interestingly it is a model that is offered in MT, IMT and CVT variants all paired to the same 1.5 litre petrol engine.. If you don't want to deal with a clutch pedal but don't have the budget for a full-fledged automatic, this is a very good alternative - Cheaper than an CVT and more fun than an AMT.
    The best part is, it costs a little under 15 lakhs - the same money as the top of the line variants of most sub 4 metre SUVs.

      @@TalkingCars Bro,I would like to share one point.The new 1.5L BS6 VTVT engine is a good one from previous 1.6 VTVT as you've said.Also,quality wise it's better than the old one.The new 1.5 BS6 Petrol comes with high quality IRIDIUM SPARK PLUGS from Hyundai.
      The replacement interval for Spark plugs were at 60,000kms before and that were normal type spark plugs.But now the new IRIDIUM ones,have got a replacement interval of 1,60,000kms which is a significantly large interval when compared to BS4 one's 60,000kms interval.
      The IRIDIUM SPARK PLUGS are expensive than normal ones but it gives better sparking and that adds to the performance.
      Source:Creta owners group.
      I've seen the pictures of the same and ready to share it with you for proof.

    Nice presentation. Liked it very much. Accidentally i watched it with earphones. Stereo effect is good. But the sound came left and right swapped. May be you didn't notice that. I mean, we can see JD in the left side of our screen even though he is in the right seat of the car, and his audio is coming from the right speaker. If you don't get what i mean, please watch it wearing headphones properly. Said this as a suggestion to make your videos more perfect. Please don't take it as a fault finding

    So on a hill descent, does it auto-switch to neutral from a higher gear to prevent stalling if the speed is too low? That's a safety concern right. Unless the vehicle is equipped with hill-hold assist and it's in fact turned on.
