new Delhi. Kia India has decided to discontinue some variants of its Seltos SUV and Carnival MPV in India. The company has dropped the mid-range HTK+ diesel-automatic trim offered on the Seltos SUV and the base variant of the seven-seater premium MPV Carnival. Kia India has not shared any specific reason behind the decision.
However, it is believed that the Korean carmaker may have withdrawn the variant due to low demand. The carmaker has refused to take bookings for these variants from the dealers. The Kia Seltos HTK+ diesel automatic variant was priced at ₹14.25 Lakh (ex-showroom). The Kia Carnival base variant diesel automatic was available for ₹25.49 Lakh (ex-showroom).
