Internally known as SP2 EV, the Kia Seltos Electric SUV will share its platform, design bits and features with the standard model. Though, the electric iteration might receive minor styling changes that will distinguish it from the regular version. The cosmetic changes could be inspired by the global-spec Kia Niro and Soul electric vehicles.
Engine details of the Kia Seltos Electric SUV are still under the wraps. Reports suggest that it might borrow engine from the Kia Soul EV (2020 model) that comes with a 204bhp electric motor powered by a 64kWh lithium-ion battery. Check Out – Modified Kia Seltos In Dual-Tone Colour Looks Classy
