Buy Kia EV6 as well as a Seltos for the price of former!

As per the details from idrive_india on Instagram, the Kia EV6 is being offered at a Rs 18 lakh discount. iDrive is a car dealership which deals with new, demo and used cars. Therefore, we are not sure whether this is a used car or not. I would like to assume that this has to be a second-hand vehicle. That is how the dealership is able to offer such enticing benefits on the electric crossover. Note that the current price of the EV6 ranges from Rs 60.97 lakh to Rs 65.97 lakh, ex-showroom. To get a Rs 18 lakh discount is massive and many more people would want to own it at that price point. To put things in perspective, a mid-spec, HTK variant of the Kia Seltos costs around Rs 18 lakh (ex-showroom). So, in essence, you can buy an EV6 as well as a Seltos for the original price of the premium EV!
