Kia Seltos has done extra ordinary in terms of numbers and the brand was able to sell over 97,000 units in just 11 months and had become one of the first brands in the country to touch one lakh sales milestone in such a short time. Kia Seltos competes with cars like Hyundai Creta, MG Hector, Tata Harrier, Nissan Kicks in the segment. Here we have an image that shows how Kia Seltos would look like if they were to launch a pickup version of it.
