Three Kia Models Get New ‘Gravity’ Trim In India

The Sonet, Seltos, and Carens are three well-rounded products that have helped Kia establish itself as a force to be reckoned with in India. While the former two have gained thorough midlife updates, the three-row family wagon will likely get those by early next year. So, to keep the excitement up, Kia India has introduced a new trim level – Gravity – for all three models. The latest derivative slots itself somewhere in the middle of the trim tree of Sonet, Seltos and Carens.

Sonet Gravity

Positioned above the HTK+ trim level, the Sonet in Gravity spec is available with the 1.2-litre petrol with 5-speed MT (INR 10.50 lakh), the 1.0-litre turbo-petrol with 6-speed iMT (INR 11.20 lakh), and the 1.5-litre diesel with 6-speed MT (INR 12 lakh). Buyers have the option of three colours of the exterior – Pearl White, Aurora Black Pearl, and Matte Graphite. The list of features it offers includes white brake callipers, Indigo Pera seats with Navy stitching, a TGS leather gear knob, a spoiler and 16-inch alloy wheels. The features list also comprises a wireless mobile charger, a rear armrest with integrated cupholders, a front door armrest, 60:40 split rear seats, a dashcam, rear adjustable headrests, and a Gravity emblem. The total variants in Kia Sonet’s portfolio have increased to 22.

Seltos Gravity

The Seltos Gravity slots above the HTX trim by offering additional features. The list includes a dashcam, a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster, ventilated front seats, a Bose sound system, and an electronic parking brake with auto-hold. On the outside, the new trim level brings 17-inch alloy wheels, a glossy black rear spoiler, body-coloured door handles, and a Gravity emblem. Those planning to buy one will have to settle for one of three colour options – Glacial White Pearl, Aurora Black Pearl, and Matte Dark Gun Metal. The Seltos Gravity is available with the 1.5-litre petrol with 6-speed MT (INR 16.63 lakh) and IVT (INR 18.06 lakh) and the 1.5-litre diesel with 6-speed MT (INR 18.21 lakh). The count of variants has jumped to 24.

The powertrain options include the 1.5-litre petrol with 6-speed MT (INR 12.10 lakh), the 1.5-litre turbo-petrol with 6-speed iMT (INR 13.50 lakh), and the 1.5-litre diesel with 6-speed MT (INR 14 lakh).
