For the Seltos's sophomore year, it gains a host of driver-assistance features as standard, including automated emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, and automatic high-beam headlamps. The larger 10.3-inch infotainment screen is now standard on more of the Seltos's trim levels, and all but the LX trim now come with automatic climate control and remote start; the top-spec SX receives a flat-bottomed steering wheel and a new Plum interior color scheme. The Nightfall Edition is new to the lineup this year and features unique black-painted 18-inch aluminum wheels and blacked-out exterior trim.
Pros Roomier cabin than other subcompact SUVs, slick infotainment features, engaging driving dynamics.
Cons Stiff-legged ride over bumpy surfaces, optional seven-speed automatic occasionally stumbles, base powertrain could use some refinement.

The Vauxhall Mokka-e offers buyers sharp looks, a decent range, a generous amount of standard kit and a relatively comfy and quiet ride. However, if you’re looking for a funky urban EV, there are cheaper options available, such as the Fiat 500 and Mazda MX-30. Those looking for an EV to ‘do it all’, meanwhile, would be far better off with a Kia e-Niro or Volkswagen ID.3, both of which are far more spacious and will go much farther on a charge.
Pros Pretty comfortable Impressively quiet at speed Plenty of standard kit
Cons e-Niro and ID.3 have longer ranges Cheap feeling interior Not that quick by EV standards
