NCAP 5★
“The Seltos is a well-rounded compact SUV that doesn't make you choose between features and safety. It has a 5-star crash rating, six airbags as standard, and decent turbo power with three engine options to suit different needs. The tech and comfort scores are genuinely competitive, though the petrol variant's efficiency falls short of what rivals manage.
