Mahindra XUV700 vs Kia Seltos ADAS compared

- XUV700 was the first car in the segment to get ADAS

- Kia Seltos was updated in July 2023

Around 5-6 years ago such a comparison would have only been possible in the upper parts of the ultra-luxury segment, like the BMW 7 Series and the Mercedes-Benz S-Class. But today, it has moved downstream pretty quickly, and you now get ADAS with cars that are priced under Rs. 30 lakh. Today we take a look at two major players in two different parts of the pricing bracket and how their ADAS systems stack up against each other. The XUV700 was the first car in its segment to get Level-2 ADAS — just a few months before the MG Astor, while the Kia Seltos is the latest car to get Level-2 ADAS.

Observations

The Seltos over the XUV700 has a rear assist package and double blind-spot monitors whereas the latter has seven airbags, video recorder, and traffic sign recognition.
