Both the Kia Seltos and Hyundai Creta share a lot under the skin, including similar powertrains. Choosing between them often comes down to personal preference and what matters most to you.
The Kia Seltos is the newer entrant with a fresher design and has grown bigger in size. Therefore, it offers a more spacious cabin, giving it an edge in interior room and presence. Seltos also had a feature-rich variant lineup, which means you are more likely to find a more equipped Seltos within your budget.
The Hyundai Creta, on the other hand, is the more popular choice and hence gets better resale value. It has a more mature design and refined look, and it delivers the same comfort and ride quality that both SUVs are known for.
On reliability, too, the two are close as both companies offer similar after-sales support. But if you want to pick a safer bet, go with the Hyundai Creta.
