The 2026 Seltos steps out with a noticeably sharper and more confident exterior. The body now carries stronger character lines, thicker cladding around the wheel arches and door sills, and new flush fitting door handles that clean up the profile. The window line still pinches at the c pillar, but it now connects to the rear windscreen with a contrasting black strip that creates a wraparound effect.
The tailgate design has been simplified by moving the number plate to the bumper, allowing the inverted L shaped LED tail lamps. A larger roof spoiler and fresh 18 inch geometric alloy wheels complete a more assertive stance.
Inside, the cabin feels more upmarket with dual screens, better materials and a long list of comfort features. Higher trims bring ventilated seats, a panoramic sunroof, wireless connectivity, a powered driver seat with memory, rear sunshades, ambient lighting, a Bose audio system, connected tech and a full Level 2 ADAS suite. Standard safety includes six airbags, esc, all wheel disc brakes, hill start assist, tpms and isofix mounts.
Under the hood, the Seltos continues with its three engine setup. The 1.5 liter petrol delivers 115 hp and 144 nm with a choice of a 6 speed manual or a cvt. The 1.5 liter turbo petrol produces 160 hp and 253 nm and pairs with either a 6 speed imt or a 7 speed dct. The 1.5 liter diesel offers 116 hp and 250 nm with a 6 speed manual or a 6 speed torque converter automatic.
