KIA X-Line Review By The Moto Gear

What’s Outside?

What you see here is the new KIA Seltos X-line. Apart from its September launch, the X-line still sits at the top of its food chain in the KIA ecosystem.

Throughout this article, we will quickly glimpse some features offered by this Seltos and see if it stands by its namesake.

Starting with its exterior, the exclusive X-line factors a matt graphite color that does lend the KIA X-line the most aggressive city predator look.

Compared to its predecessor GTX Plus, the X-line trades the glossier look for the dark and matt segments.

The matt graphite paint on the front grille, the gloss black essence around the fog lamps, wing mirrors, and the new piano black skid with an orange accent on the front, side, and back seem to complement the design.

Unlike the GTX Plus, this Seltos has an unmistakenly larger wheelbase. The older 17-inches make room for 18-inch wheels with a new rim design to welcome more grip on the road.

Stunning as they look, KIA would’ve had an option to opt for all-black wheels too.

Behind the Seltos, you’ll find a more refined tailgate with a chrome dressing to highlight the logo in broad daylight.

What’s inside?

Looking inside, the changes are capped to the new color theme compared to the GTX Plus versions. Interestingly, you’ll find the new blue interior called an Indigo Perra with leather seats covered in a honeycomb pattern and colored stitching.

The rest of the cabin has ample space with a premium finishing and feel with a single pan sunroof.

Speaking of features inside, you can find a 10.20-inch screen, climate controls, a digital speedometer, a heads-up display for speed gazing and a premium bose sound system for entertainment.

You’ll get 6 airbags, an ESC, and much more regarding safety features.

Under the bonnet, we will find a 1.5-liter diesel engine with 115 horsepower and a 1.4-liter turbo engine with 140 horsepower if opted for petrol.

Nevertheless, we expect an automatic gearbox for both the X-line versions.

With a 6-speed torque converter on this diesel variant, you can also get a 7-speed dual-clutch for a 1.4 turbo petrol version.
