On the outside, there are a few subtle changes to the exterior. This includes a new front grille with incomplete chrome elements, redesigned LED headlamps, sporty bumpers, a silver skid plate, the sides have a new alloy wheel design that is more reminiscent of the modern EVs, while the overall silhouette remains much similar to the existing model. Another major difference is at the rear section which now gets a sleek LED light bar running across the width of the SUV connecting LED taillamps on either side.

Specs
Since it will be a facelift, there are unlikely to be any changes to the powertrain options. This means that it could come with 1.5-litre naturally-aspirated petrol, a 1.5-litre turbocharged diesel and a 1.4-litre turbocharged petrol motor. The 1.5-litre motors output 115 PS each, while the turbo-petrol engine belts out 140 PS. Also, all the engines come mated to a 6-speed manual transmission as standard. However, the base petrol engine is optionally available with a CVT, while the diesel and turbo-petrol motors are on offer with a 6-speed torque-converter and 7-speed DCT option, respectively. The updated Seltos could be priced between Rs 11 lakh to Rs 19 lakh, ex-showroom.
