2025 Kia Seltos undergoing field testing in India, 2025 debut expected

2025 Kia Seltos spotted, second-generation car set to debut in late 2025

The second-generation Kia Seltos has been spotted testing on Indian roads, marking the model’s first appearance in the country. The new Seltos, expected to make its global debut in 2025, has already been revealed in South Korea, but the Indian prototype offers new insights into its updated design and features.

Redesigned look, bold changes

The latest spy shots reveal significant updates to the Seltos’ design, especially on the front and rear fascias. The SUV’s front end is more upright and features newly designed LED headlights. The LED taillights at the rear are reminiscent of the Kia EV5, hinting at the modern design language the brand may adopt across its product line.

While overall proportions remain consistent with the current generation Seltos, a few unique elements stand out. Notable among these are the unique two-tone ORVMs (outside rear view mirrors) and unconventional alloy wheel designs with diamond-cut finishes that add a touch of sophistication to the vehicle’s silhouette.

Limited spy video insight

Recent spy videos mainly show off the rear end of the prototype, while changes to the front-end design are up to speculation. However, the video reinforces the SUV’s bold styling direction and hints that Kia intends to deliver a product that’s both familiar and forward-thinking.

Powertrain expectations

Under the hood, the second-generation Seltos is expected to offer multiple powertrain options suitable for different markets. Possible options include turbo-petrol, diesel and petrol-hybrid engines to meet growing demand for electrified powertrains while retaining traditional options for traditional buyers.

World premiere in 2025

As Kia prepares to launch the new Seltos globally in 2025, the SUV is expected to bring a new look to one of the brand’s most popular models. With its updated design and wide range of powertrain options, the second-generation Seltos could further strengthen Kia’s position in competitive markets, including India.
