A facelifted Genesis G80 has been spotted in California, giving us a closer look at the changes made to this upscale sedan. The heavy camouflage is still present, but the combination of bright sunlight and clear images reveals some of the modifications. We also catch a glimpse of the updated interior through the passenger window.

Compared to our previous sighting, it seems that the exterior changes for the G80 will be minor. The split-light design is retained both at the front and rear, although the headlights appear slightly smaller. The pixel LED elements are also visible and shine brightly in the sunlight. Looking closer, you can see that the front fascia has undergone minor revisions, with the corner vents being slightly reduced in size. The large shield grille, however, does not extend as far into the central opening as before.

It is possible that the grille will also be slightly smaller, following the design changes seen on the Hyundai Elantra and Sonata. These models feature redesigned front clips with smaller grilles, so it is plausible that a similar approach will be taken for Genesis, Hyundai’s luxury brand.

While the sides of the prototype remain hidden, we can see that the twin lightbars on the fenders will be retained. At the rear, the taillights show some differences compared to the previous model. The twin bars are still present, but the lenses appear larger, although this could be due to the contrast between the darker quarter panels and the brighter trunk. Additionally, the rear fascia features different body lines, and the faux exhaust outlets have been revised.

Although we previously spotted a G80 prototype, we now have a partial view of the interior. Looking through the passenger front window, we can’t discern the details, but it appears that the floating-style center touchscreen is no longer present. The slope of the dash in front of the driver is less prominent, suggesting that the updated G80 may adopt a layout similar to the larger G90 model. The heavy covers on the dashboard indicate that more significant changes may be happening beyond minor trim updates.

New 2023 Vauxhall Corsa range topped by £38,585 EV

July 20, 2023 David

Vauxhall has announced the pricing and specifications for the updated Corsa supermini. The facelifted model now offers new electric and hybrid powertrain options and features Vauxhall’s ‘Vizor’ grille, which is the last current Vauxhall model to receive this design element.

The base Design trim of the new Corsa will start at £19,625, while the mid-range GS cars will be priced from £22,005. The top-spec Ultimate trim will have an additional premium of £3,600.

The electric version of the Corsa, which comes with a 51kWh battery and a choice of 134bhp or 154bhp, will start at £32,445 and £38,585 respectively. This means that the entry-level Corsa electric is cheaper than the £34,470 Mini Electric but slightly more expensive than the £29,240 Renault Zoe.

The Design-spec cars will come equipped with a 7.0-inch infotainment system, parking sensors, and various safety systems such as lane departure warning and speed sign recognition. The GS trim will include a larger 10.0-inch infotainment touchscreen, rear parking camera, and 17-inch alloy wheels. The top-end trim will have matrix headlights, heated and massaging seats upholstered in Alcantara, and a heated steering wheel.

According to design boss Mark Adams, the new Corsa has taken a significant step forward in terms of powertrain options, particularly with the Corsa Electric. The electric version now features an upgraded 154bhp motor, which is also found in the Peugeot e-208, and offers an improved WLTP range of 246 miles.

Starting from 3 August, the Corsa Electric will be available with the current 134bhp motor and 51kWh battery, providing a range of 222 miles. Both electric versions will come with an on-board 11kW charger, allowing for a full charge from 0-100% in five hours and 15 minutes. Rapid charging from 10% to 80% is claimed to take 30 minutes.

In addition to the electric options, a 1.2-litre mild-hybrid engine, the Corsa’s first hybrid powertrain, will be introduced later this year. It will be available with two power levels: 99bhp and 134bhp.

The Corsa range will also include entry-level petrol engines with power outputs of 74bhp or 99bhp, available with a five-speed manual gearbox. Higher-power petrol engines will be paired with a six-speed manual or eight-speed automatic transmission.

Customers can begin ordering their Corsa now, and deliveries are expected to start towards the end of this year. Vauxhall hopes that the updated design and increased powertrain choices, along with the extended electric range, will help the Corsa regain its position as the best-selling car in the UK, a title it lost last year to the Nissan Qashqai SUV, with competition from the Tesla Model Y and Ford Puma.

According to Mark Adams, the Corsa has been a phenomenal success since its launch and has been an important car for Vauxhall.

How to Get the New Kia Seltos Facelift Faster with Kia K-Code

July 12, 2023 Prafful Singh

You can even get the K-Code from someone you know who already owns Kia Seltos

The facelifted Kia Seltos recently made its India-spec debut with various design and feature upgrades. Booking for the new model will start on July 14, and in order to reward existing Seltos owners, Kia has introduced a program called the Kia K-Code.

What is the K-Code?

The K-Code is a special code that can be generated on Kia’s website. It is available to both current Seltos owners and those who know someone who owns the compact SUV. Even second-hand Kia Seltos owners can benefit from the K-Code. The code must be used on July 14 during the booking process.

The Benefits

If you have the K-Code and use it during the booking, you will receive a high-priority delivery. This means that your wait time for delivery will be shorter compared to those who book the facelifted Seltos without a K-Code. The regular wait time for non-K-Code bookings can be as long as 3 to 4 months, depending on your city. This initiative is designed to help current Kia Seltos owners upgrade to the facelifted model quickly, or to help their friends and family become Kia customers.

What the 2023 Seltos Offers

Design

The facelifted Kia Seltos features small but significant design changes to keep up with the competition. It has a redesigned front grille, revised bumper, and new LED DRLs. The side profile remains mostly unchanged, except for the 18-inch alloy wheels, which are no longer limited to the X-Line variant. At the rear, the 2023 Seltos has connected LED tail lamps, and the bumper design has been updated for the GT Line and X-Line variants, which now feature a dual-tip exhaust setup.

Powertrain

The facelifted Kia Seltos comes with three engine options: a 1.5-litre petrol engine (115PS/144Nm) mated to a 6-speed manual or CVT automatic, a 1.5-litre diesel (116PS/250Nm) mated to either an iMT or a 6-speed automatic, and a 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine (160PS/253Nm) from the Carens, available with a 6-speed iMT or a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT).

Features & Safety

The 2023 Seltos offers features such as dual-integrated 10.25-inch screens (touchscreen infotainment and digital driver’s display), dual-zone climate control, ventilated front seats, ambient lighting, and a panoramic sunroof. In terms of safety, it now comes equipped with ADAS features like adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assist, forward-collision warning, and auto emergency braking. Other safety features include six airbags, electronic stability control (ESC), tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), and a 360-degree camera.

Price & Rivals

The starting price for the 2023 Kia Seltos is expected to be around Rs 11 lakh (ex-showroom), with the launch scheduled for mid-August. It will compete against models like the Hyundai Creta, Volkswagen Taigun, Skoda Kushaq, Toyota Hyryder, Maruti Grand Vitara, and MG Astor. It will also face upcoming rivals like the Honda Elevate and Citroen C3 Aircross.

Take A Closer Look At The Facelifted Kia Seltos In These 15 Images

July 5, 2023 Prafful Singh

The updated Kia Seltos looks more aggressive and includes new premium features inside and out

After a long wait, the facelifted version of the Kia Seltos for the Indian market has been revealed. Pre-orders for the SUV will begin on July 14, and we can expect the launch in mid-August 2023. With this update, the Seltos has received several design and feature upgrades to match the increasing competition.

In this article, we will explore the exterior and interior of the updated SUV through a gallery of images:

Front

The front of the Seltos has undergone changes while still retaining its recognizable design. The facelift includes a wider and larger grille with a honeycomb pattern and LED daytime running lights (DRLs) that extend to the center of the grille.

Kia has equipped the facelifted Seltos with updated LED headlights featuring “heartbeat” DRLs and dynamic turn indicators placed below the main lighting setup.

The lower section of the front now features a revised bumper with angular fog lamp housings for the GT Line and X-Line variants. The Tech Line variants have a simpler fog lamp housing. Additionally, Kia is offering a 4-piece LED fog lamp setup instead of the previous 3-part unit. The front bumper also includes a silver skid plate and an advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) radar.

Side

The side profile of the Seltos remains familiar, with the inclusion of stylish dual-tone 18-inch alloy wheels seen in the X-Line trim now available for the GT Line variants as well.

Rear

The most significant update to the rear of the SUV is the new connected LED taillight setup. The Seltos now features either the “GT” or “7DCT” badge on the bottom right side of the tailgate, which varies depending on the chosen variant.

Another notable change is the sporty dual tip exhaust setup exclusive to the GT Line and X-Line variants. It is expected to produce a distinct exhaust note.

Cabin

The facelifted Seltos now offers a black and brown interior theme, while the black and grey theme is retained for the GT Line variants. The cabin inserts and the finish for the leatherette seats vary depending on the chosen variant and include brown, black, and green shades.

The updated dashboard and console feature slimmer central air conditioning vents and a revised climate control panel to accommodate the new dual-zone AC system. It also incorporates dual 10.25-inch integrated displays, one for infotainment and the other for instrumentation.

Both front seats now have ventilation functionality, and the driver’s seat offers an 8-way power adjustment function.

One of the most anticipated updates is the addition of a panoramic sunroof, which enhances the overall cabin experience but may slightly affect rear headroom. The rear of the Seltos features 3-point seatbelts (recently added to the existing model a few months ago) and adjustable headrests for all passengers.

Exterior Design Changes

The overall shape of the Seltos remains the same, but the facelifted model features revised bumpers, an updated grille, and new LED DRLs for a fresh light signature. The changes at the rear are more noticeable, with the addition of new connected taillamps and revisions to the rear bumper.

In profile, the SUV looks very similar, but it now comes with new 18-inch alloy wheels, giving it a more premium appearance.

Fresh Cabin Layout

The dashboard of the facelifted Kia Seltos has been redesigned to incorporate the new integrated displays and climate control panel. The rest of the console design remains the same, with its driver-oriented layout. The GT Line variant of the SUV retains the all-black cabin theme.

All caught up on features

While the Kia Seltos set a new standard for features when it was launched in 2019, it has since been surpassed by newer competitors. The facelift adds various equipment that the Seltos needed to catch up, such as the panoramic sunroof, 10.25-inch digital driver’s display, and dual-zone climate control. The GT Line variants will exclusively come with dual exhaust tips.

The major addition is the advanced driver assist systems (ADAS), which includes 17 features like autonomous emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, high beam assist, and lane assist. The safety features continue to include six airbags, a 360-degree camera, ISOFIX, and electronic stability control (ESC).

The Seltos also retains other features like a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment unit, ventilated front seats, heads-up display, wireless phone charging, LED sound mood lighting, and built-in air purifier.

More Powerful Than Ever

The Seltos continues to offer the choice of three engine options, each with an automatic transmission option. Here are the details:

Specification	1.5-litre N.A. Petrol	1.5-litre Turbo-petrol	1.5-litre Diesel
Power	115PS	160PS	116PS
Torque	144Nm	253Nm	250Nm
Transmission	6-speed MT/ CVT	6-speed iMT/ 7-speed DCT	6-speed MT/ 6-speed AT

Kia has replaced the 1.4-liter turbo-petrol engine with the new 1.5-liter turbocharged unit that debuted on the Carens MPV. This makes the Seltos more powerful than ever, surpassing its rivals.

Launch Timeline

The carmaker is expected to launch the Seltos in India soon, with prices likely starting from Rs 10 lakh (ex-showroom). The facelifted SUV will compete against the Hyundai Creta, Skoda Kushaq, Toyota Hyryder, and MG Astor.

New Kia Seltos Teaser Gives Us A Detailed Look Of The Updated Interior

July 1, 2023 Prafful Singh

The facelifted SUV with new features and more technology is set to launch on July 4

The facelifted Kia Seltos is ready to be launched early next month and after multiple spy shots of the compact SUV, the carmaker has finally released its first official teaser which gives us a glimpse into its cabin. The 2023 Seltos will get multiple updates over the current model, and here are the ones we spotted in the teaser:

Best Glimpse Of The Cabin So Far

The teaser starts with a close-up of the ORVM and then we get the silhouette of its front profile and the sleek new LED DRLs. But the most important part of the teaser comes when we get a look inside the facelifted Seltos. The updated compact SUV gets an integrated display setup with a touchscreen infotainment system and a fully digital driver’s display. The steering wheel looks more or less the same but the dual-zone climate control unit below the new central AC vents has been redesigned.

The last shot of the teaser gives us a look at the new LED tail lamps of the compact SUV.

What We Already Know

The facelifted Seltos will get features like a panoramic sunroof and ADAS, which have been confirmed by multiple spy shots. It will also retain features like ventilated front seats, ambient lighting, up to six airbags, electronic stability control (ESC) and tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), from the outgoing model.

Powertrain

The new Kia Seltos will likely carry forward the same engine options as the current model, which gets a 1.5-litre petrol engine (115PS/144Nm) paired with a 6-speed manual transmission or a CVT gearbox, and a 1.5-litre diesel unit (116PS/250Nm) mated to either a 6-speed iMT or a 6-speed automatic transmission.

Also Read: Kia Issues Recall For The Carens After Possible Instrument Cluster Glitch

The carmaker could also add a 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine to this mix, replacing the 1.4-litre unit which was discontinued earlier. This engine, also seen on the Kia Carens, makes 160PS and 253Nm, paired with either a 6-speed iMT or a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT).

Price and Rivals

Kia will launch the facelifted Seltos on July 4, likely at a starting price of Rs 10 lakh (ex-showroom). Once launched, it will renew its rivalry with the likes of the Hyundai Creta, Volkswagen Taigun, Skoda Kushaq, Maruti Grand Vitara, Toyota Hyryder, MG Astor and the upcoming Honda Elevate.

2024 Jeep Gladiator Spy Photos Show Updated Interior Inspired by Wrangler

June 29, 2023 Prafful Singh

The Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator share many similarities. The 2024 Wrangler has already unveiled its refreshed appearance, and now it’s the Gladiator’s turn. While the changes are minimal, the recent spy shots reveal that Jeep has not tried to keep them a secret, as there is no camouflage visible anywhere.

This includes the interior as well. Previous spy shots of the Gladiator showed the exterior design, but the dash and center touchscreen were covered, concealing any changes. Although we don’t get an up-close look here, a glimpse through the passenger window of this white Jeep reveals all we need to know. The screen is definitely larger, and there are no visible climate vents next to it.

If the Gladiator follows the 2024 Wrangler’s interior upgrades, we can expect a new 12.3-inch center screen. In order to make room for it on the existing dash, the iconic round climate vents on both sides have been removed. Instead, rectangular vents are now positioned directly below the screen. However, the center stack of tactile controls remains the same. The center console also remains unchanged, but there are some minor trim changes on the passenger side of the dash and the driver instrument cluster, bringing a sense of rectangular symmetry to the entire panel. Nevertheless, round climate vents can still be found at the corners.

In addition to the visual changes, it is likely that the Gladiator will receive tech upgrades, including the latest Uconnect 5 software. It would also make sense for Jeep to add the Trails Offroad guide, which is available on the Wrangler. And while we’re discussing unseen upgrades, the 2024 Gladiator might also share the Wrangler’s upgraded Dana 44 HD Full Float rear axle on Rubicon trims.

New spy video shows a Tech Line variant of a white Seltos with black roof.

New features onboard to include dual-zone AC and ADAS.

We are just a week away from the launch of the facelifted Kia Seltos in India. Leaked images and videos of the updated compact SUV have been surfacing online, with the latest sighting revealing an undisguised Tech (HT) Line variant of the new Seltos.

What Does The Video Uncover?

The spy video shows the facelifted Seltos in a white with black roof exterior paint option, without any camouflage. It showcases the SUV’s bigger grille, new alloy wheel design, and connected LED taillights. The video does not confirm if the spotted model had the panoramic sunroof or not.

Interior Updates

While there isn’t much revealed about the SUV’s interior in the video, a brief glimpse shows an all-black cabin and the connected screens setup. Kia is expected to offer the Seltos with a revamped cabin and dashboard layout, featuring newly designed central AC vents and a more premium climate control panel.

More Tech To Play With

In addition to the new climate control panel and panoramic sunroof, the Kia Seltos is likely to come with a digital driver’s display. The touchscreen options will remain the same, with 8-inch and 10.25-inch screens. Key features like ventilated front seats, wireless phone charging, and an air purifier are expected to be retained.

The SUV’s safety kit will include advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), such as lane-keep assist and adaptive cruise control. Other safety features onboard are expected to be six airbags, ISOFIX child seat anchorages, and a 360-degree camera.

A Familiar Set Of Powertrains

The new Seltos will be offered with the same 115PS, 1.5-litre petrol and 116PS diesel engines as the current model. The petrol engine will continue to be paired with a 6-speed manual transmission and a CVT, while the diesel engine will get a 6-speed iMT and a 6-speed AT. Instead of the 1.4-litre turbo-petrol unit, the facelifted Seltos will receive the Carens’s 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine (160PS/253Nm), paired with either a 6-speed iMT or a 7-speed DCT.

Launch And Price

The facelifted Kia Seltos is set to go on sale on July 4, with prices expected to start from Rs 10 lakh (ex-showroom). It will compete against the Maruti Grand Vitara, Hyundai Creta, Skoda Kushaq, Toyota Hyryder, Volkswagen Taigun, MG Astor, and the upcoming Citroen C3 Aircross.

Exclusive: Facelifted Tata Safari Spied With New 19-inch Wheels

June 20, 2023 Prafful Singh

It is expected to go on sale sometime in early 2024

New spy shots show two test mules of the facelifted SUV.
One had the same 18-inch wheels as the existing model while the other got new 19-inch units.
To get slimmer LED lighting and dynamic turn indicators like most modern cars.
Existing model already gets a 10.25-inch touchscreen and ADAS, which are likely to be carried forward onto the facelifted SUV.
To get both new turbo-petrol (1.5-litre TGDI) and existing diesel engines.
Prices are expected to start from Rs 16 lakh (ex-showroom).

We have already seen umpteen spy shots of the facelifted Tata Safari. Once again, two test mules of the updated SUV were spotted draped in heavy camouflage with a couple of new details to be noticed.

New Spy Shot Details

In the new spy images, we can see one test mule sporting the same 18-inch wheels as the current model, while the other facelifted Safari revealed a fresh, intricate 5-spoke design for its wheels. While the currently offered Safari comes with 18-inch units, the facelifted model will get 19-inch wheels (a first for the nameplate) as seen in the new spy shots.

Previously Seen Revisions

As hinted by earlier spy shots, the facelifted SUV will come with vertically housed LED headlights and connected LED DRLs. Its profile isn’t expected to get many updates aside from the new alloy wheel design but at the back, you will get to see slimmer, connected LED lights and refreshed bumper. It will also be equipped with dynamic turn indicators like newer cars.

Cabin And Feature Updates

As the Safari was recently given a couple of updates on the inside, we expect it to carry them forward onto the facelifted version. These include the recently added 10.25-inch touchscreen and 7-inch digital driver’s display. Tata has frequently updated the Safari with multiple new features to bring it up against the competition like the Mahindra XUV700. That said, you can expect some more headlining features to be added with this midlife update.

Its other features will likely include a 360-degree camera, wireless phone charging, a panoramic sunroof, and ventilated seats. The updated Safari’s safety net should include up to six airbags, electronic stability control (ESC), ISOFIX child seat anchorages, and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS).

What Will It Get Under The Hood?

The facelifted Tata Safari will mostly come with the same 2-litre diesel engine (170PS/350Nm) paired to either a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic transmission. Tata will also offer it with a 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine (170PS/280Nm), which was unveiled at the 2023 Auto Expo.

Launch Timeline

Kia Seltos Facelift Spotted Uncovered; 5 Key Observations

June 20, 2023 Prafful Singh

The updated version of the compact SUV will be available for purchase in July

The facelifted Kia Seltos has been spotted without any camouflage for the first time. The compact SUV was introduced in 2019 and this will be its first major update since its launch. It is expected to be available for purchase in July. So, here are the five main things that we noticed in the facelifted version:

New Front Profile

The new Seltos will feature a refreshed front profile, starting with a new and larger grille. It will have new LED headlights and sleeker daytime running lights (DRLs), integrated into the grille. The redesigned bumper appears busier and more aggressive. The fog lamps, styled like stacked ice cubes, have been retained but their housing has been redesigned along with the bumper.

No Changes To The Side Profile

The side profile remains largely unchanged, except for some modifications to the door cladding. Surprisingly, the alloy wheels are the same as those seen on the X-Line variants. This particular model appears to be a higher-end variant, as indicated by the presence of chrome door handles.

More Stylish Rear Profile

The changes to the rear profile are more significant compared to the front. The boot shape has been modified to give it a more aggressive appearance. The facelifted model will feature new LED tail lamps connected by a illuminated strip. The redesigned bumpers will now house the reverse lights as well. The dual faux exhausts are now more prominent than in the current version, contributing to the sportier look.

ADAS!

We already knew that it would be equipped with radar-based Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) technology, and the latest spy shot confirms this. The vehicle seen in the picture is a production-ready model featuring a rectangular-shaped radar on the front bumper. It will be the second compact SUV to offer this safety feature, following the MG Astor. The ADAS suite is expected to include blind-spot monitoring, adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, and lane-keep assist.

Refreshed Interior

The spy shots only offer a glimpse of the interior. The facelifted model is expected to feature a refreshed interior design with a new layout similar to the international model. The global-spec model boasts a new dual-layer, all-black theme with new switches and dual-integrated 10.25-inch displays, including a digital driver’s display and touchscreen infotainment system.

In terms of powertrains, it is likely to continue with the same 1.5-litre petrol and diesel engines. The discontinued 1.4-litre turbocharged petrol engine will be replaced by a new 160PS 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine. All engine options will be available with an automatic transmission, as before.
