The reporter raises big concerns over Kia Motors India for the double standard safety it offers on Kia Seltos by saying that the Seltos sold in Global Markets are being offered with whole-load of safety techs (5-star rating) including Lane-keep assistautomatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning etc. and the unit sold in India are being exempted from these techs which has resulted in such poor ratings contributing to that further is the ‘unstable‘ structure of the Crossover.
