The recently launched Kia Seltos Facelift and the upcoming Honda Elevate have revealed their fuel efficiency stats. While the Honda Elevate is equipped with only a petrol engine, the Seltos offers three engine options: two petrol and one diesel. Let’s compare these mid-size SUV contenders and see how they stack up against their rivals!

Diesel
Model | Claimed Mileage |
Kia Seltos Facelift | 20.70 kmpl (iMT), 19.21 kmpl (Torque Converter Automatic) |
Hyundai Creta | 21.4 kmpl (Manual), 18.5 kmpl (Torque Converter Automatic) |
Both the Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos are powered by an identical 115PS 1.5-litre turbo diesel engine. However, the conventional manual gearbox outperforms the clutchless intelligent manual transmission (iMT) in terms of fuel efficiency.
Surprisingly, the Seltos’s diesel automatic boasts better fuel efficiency than its Hyundai counterpart.
