Kia India has not shared any specific reasons behind the decision. However, it is believed that the Korean carmaker may have pulled out the variants due to low demand. The carmaker has refused to take bookings for these variants from the dealers.

The Kia Seltos HTK+ diesel automatic variant was priced at 14.25 lakh (ex-showroom). The Kia Carnival base variant diesel automatic was available for 25.49 lakh (ex-showroom).

Customers who want to buy the Seltos diesel automatic will now have to go for the GTX+ automatic variant, which costs 17.95 lakh (ex-showroom). It is 3.7 lakh more expensive than the HTK+ variant.
