I take longer in my i10 to reverse out of my parking spot than in the Seltos due to the ease it provides.<\/h2>\n

BHPian ginxtonic<\/strong> recently shared this with other enthusiasts.<\/p>\n

End-to-end experience of our Seltos Facelift (GTX+ DCT)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Got the car delivered to me and my family on Nov 1st!! Within 5 weeks of the booking date to the committed 15-16 weeks – which is honestly remarkable IMO.<\/p>\n

Listing down my entire booking and pre-delivery, delivery and experience to date with our Pewter Olive GTX+ DCT.<\/p>\n

Booking and pre-delivery<\/h2>\n

Reached out to Frontier Kia first, and we weren’t impressed by their handling and proactiveness – so contacted Jayanti KIA and it was probably a great decision keeping in mind that we had absolutely 0 issues or niggles with the entire experience.<\/p>\n

Booked in the last week of September, the SA came to our house to take the booking. We paid the 25k amount and then waited till we were messaged around Oct 3rd week to get the CSD procedure initiated as the car is available to be allotted within a week. TBH I thought there was something fishy as it’s been less than 1 month since the booking (p.s. there was nothing as such).<\/p>\n

The SA was communicative and responsive to all our questions. PDI was scheduled, via Zekardo (in detail in post #975). All was smoothly done, delivery was scheduled for 4 days later as BH registration from the RTO office took a while due to public holidays<\/p>\n

Delivery<\/h2>\n

The car was ready for us. Looked gorgeous.<\/p>\n

Paid for the accessories, and logged into MyKia and Kia Connect. Kia Connect didn’t work for the first 1 week, they fixed something on the back end – however, it still wasn’t fixed at my end. I called customer care through the website number and they helped me figure it out and it’s now connected end-to-end.<\/p>\n

Took delivery of the car, turned off the forward collision warning, and had barely any petrol so got that filled too.<\/p>\n

Experience till now<\/h2>\n
