The KIA Seltos is one of the most controversial and underrated crossovers on the global market. Debuting in 2019, the compact SUV was positioned as a serious alternative to the Hyundai Creta. However, the car did not manage to become "its own" in the world of crossovers until the end. Of course, it is also impossible to say that the cross has completely failed in terms of sales, but the results turned out to be much lower than the manufacturer had expected.
The reasons for this result, according to many experts, lie in the not very expressive appearance of the Korean SUV representative, as well as in the cost, which turned out to be higher in comparison with the Creta.
Our designers suggested what exactly needs to be changed in the KIA Seltos 2021-2022 for the SUV to be popular and in demand among motorists all over the world. Published renders of the cross show all the changes that can occur in the exterior of the car.
Design
First of all, according to the designers, the Korean cross must change the body type. Instead of a classic, somewhat angular appearance, the novelty should receive a stylish coupe-like body. If the manufacturer really decides to release the KIA Seltos Cross Coupe 2021-2022, then the car will be able to compete not only with standard SUV market representatives, but also with such models as the Haval F7x and Renault Arkana.
Judging by the photo, the innovations in the front end will be limited to a slightly different slope of the side struts. From the side, the perception of the cross will change due to the increased size of aluminum rims, deeper cutouts for the arches, as well as a different form of side glazing and a sloping roofline to the stern.
The rear of the KIA Seltos Cross Coupe 2021-2022 will receive the most notable innovations. Here it is necessary to note the different shape of the tailgate and rear window, which is associated with a change in the type of body.
Specifications
The most significant changes are to take place in the specifications of the Korean model. Based on what the designers showed in the photo, how the new 2021-2022 KIA Seltos Cross Coupe is charged using the station for electric vehicles, it becomes obvious that it will receive either an all-electric powertrain or its hybrid variation.
If such changes occur, then the new Kia Seltos Cross Coupe 2021-2022 will be one of the most economical cars in its class. At the same time, in this case, the manufacturer will have to change other technical capabilities of the SUV.
