The most-anticipated launch of the year, New Seltos has recorded the segment’s highest first-day bookings with 13,424 pre-orders within 24 hours. Out of these, 1,973 bookings were done using the K-Code which was a special program to expand the Seltos community by giving existing Seltos owners special access to unlock a world of high-priority delivery for the new potential buyers.
