Other highlights are new switches for the air conditioning controls and a rotary dial replacing the gear lever. The equipment list boasts a 360-degree camera system, ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) technologies, six airbags in the top-end variants and a slew of safety features. India is also expected to get ADAS upon the Seltos facelift’s arrival.

In India, the five-seater competing against Hyundai Creta, MG Astor, VW Taigun, Skoda Kushaq and Nissan Kicks will have new rivals in the form of Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder and Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara. As for the performance, the same 1.5-litre four-cylinder petrol, the 1.5-litre four-pot turbo diesel and the 1.4-litre turbo GDI petrol engines will likely be carried over.
