Kia Seltos GTX(O) and X-Line(O) Launched in India at Rs 21.56 Lakh

Kia India has added two new top-spec variants to its best-selling Kia Seltos lineup. The GTX(O) and X-Line(O) trims go on sale starting at Rs 21,56,900 (ex-showroom), sitting above the existing GTX(A) and X-Line(A) options as the new flagship trims of the SUV.

The timing is not a coincidence. The Seltos recently picked up a 5-Star Bharat NCAP safety rating, and Kia says it is now the highest-scoring ICE vehicle tested under the program so far. The GTX(O) and X-Line(O) variants are built to lean into that reputation, packing in Kia’s most complete safety and convenience package yet for this SUV.

Seltos X-Line (A), previous top variant19,51,400
Seltos GTX(O) / X-Line(O), new top variant21,56,900

Kia has not broken out separate pricing for GTX(O) versus X-Line(O) in its official announcement, both trims launch at the same starting figure, with the final on-road price varying by city on account of RTO and insurance charges.

Segment-Leading ADAS F+ Safety Suite

This is really the headline act. The GTX(O) and X-Line(O) come loaded with Kia’s ADAS F+ package, comprising 28 advanced safety features. Here’s the full breakdown of what Kia is calling out specifically:

Safety FeatureWhat It Does
Front Collision-Avoidance Assist – Junction Crossing (FCA-JC)Detects and helps avoid collisions while crossing junctions
Front Collision-Avoidance Assist – Lane Change Oncoming (FCA-LO)Warns and intervenes for oncoming traffic during lane changes
Front Collision-Avoidance Assist – Lane Change Side (FCA-LS)Monitors adjacent lanes during a lane change for side collision risk
Front Collision-Avoidance Assist with Evasive Steering Assist (FCA-W/ESA)Adds steering intervention on top of standard collision warning
Navigation-Based Smart Cruise Control – Zone (NSCC-Z)Adjusts cruising speed automatically based on mapped speed zones
Navigation-Based Smart Cruise Control – Curve (NSCC-C)Slows the car down ahead of sharp curves using map data
Highway Driving Assist (HDA)Combines lane centering and adaptive cruise for highway stretches

Kia has built the new-generation Seltos on its India-first global K3 platform, which the brand credits for the improved structural safety and driving refinement across the lineup.

Convenience and Connectivity Features

Beyond the safety numbers, Kia has stacked the GTX(O) and X-Line(O) with a genuinely long features list, some of which are new to the Seltos altogether.

Smart DashcamFront and rear camera setup with companion mobile app
One-Touch Power WindowsAuto up and down with safety pinch-detection on all four windows

Kia’s in-built navigation is also part of the package, which should matter to buyers who have so far relied entirely on Android Auto or Apple CarPlay for turn-by-turn directions.

Powertrain Options

The GTX(O) and X-Line(O) will be offered with turbo petrol and diesel engine options. Kia has not detailed exact power and torque figures for these specific trims in its official statement, so expect that information to trickle in as reviewers get seat time with the cars.

What Kia India Had to Say

Atul Sood, Senior Vice-President for Marketing and Sales at Kia India, framed the launch as a natural next step for a car that has already found its footing here. According to him, the Seltos has kept evolving with what Indian buyers actually want, and the recent Bharat NCAP score only reinforced that the engineering behind it holds up. With GTX(O) and X-Line(O), Kia is essentially bundling its best safety tech, connectivity, and premium touches into one variant so buyers do not have to hunt across trims for the features they want.

It’s a fair pitch too. Since launch, the current-generation Seltos has been notching over 10,000 units in monthly sales on a fairly consistent basis, so there’s clearly an appetite for a well-specced mid-size SUV in this bracket.

Should You Book the GTX(O) or X-Line(O)

If you were already circling the top-end Seltos and features like the head-up display, smart dashcam, or the fuller ADAS suite were the deciding factor, these two variants close that gap. The GTX(O) leans into Kia’s sportier GT-Line design cues, while the X-Line keeps its blacked-out, rugged look. Functionally, both get the same features list, so the choice really comes down to which styling you prefer.

Buyers who don’t need the extended ADAS suite or the air purifier might still find better value lower in the lineup, the standard GTX(A) and X-Line(A) trims remain on sale and continue to undercut these new variants on price.
