GUWAHATI, June 6: Kia’s Seltos, hailed as India’s most beloved SUV and the first premium SUV to be launched by Kia in the country, has reached an impressive milestone of 500,000 units sold in just 46 months since its launch.

Contributing significantly to Kia India’s success, the Seltos has accounted for 55% of the company’s net sales, including both domestic sales and exports. In addition to being the top-selling SUV in the domestic market, it has already exported 135,885 units of the Seltos, manufactured in India, to nearly 100 overseas markets across the Middle East, Africa, Central & South America, Mexico, and the Asia Pacific region.
