First Kia Seltos Hybrid to join line-up next year, rivalling Toyota in 'hybrids to the front' strategy – report

AutoExec Summary
The next Kia Seltos is set to introduce a hybrid variant, drawing technology from the Hyundai Kona, as part of Kia’s electrification push. Hyundai Motor Group is focusing more on hybrid cars due to the increasing sales of electrified cars. Kia is also expected to add a Seltos Hybrid small SUV next year. The move follows the rise in popularity of hybrid cars and a slowdown in electric car sales. This shift will better position Kia to compete with market leader Toyota.
