    I am planning to purchase the Kia Seltos petrol automatic. Please help me select a variant that’s good and trouble-free.

    Autocar India says: All models of the Seltos are generally trouble-free, but if ultimate reliability is your concern, we suggest you go for the naturally aspirated petrol mated to a CVT gearbox as that combination is less complex than the 1.5 turbo-petrol with the DCT, which could theoretically give issues.
