The Kia Seltos Sport+ is the penultimate specification and features a full gamut of safety tech, though it misses out on desirable features.

Seven colours are offered across the line-up, including a new Pluton Blue finish. The outgoing models’ Starlight Yellow has been dropped, while Clear White and Pluton Blue are available with a contrast Fusion Black roof exclusively on the Seltos GT-Line.
The other single colours include Neptune blue, Mars orange, Steel grey, Gravity grey, Cherry black and Snow White pearl.

While all the hype is about the electric iX2, it's the entry petrol grade that should probably get the most attention in the second-gen range.
