 A Kia Seltos photo sliced in two have appeared online which is very unsettling. The SUV is alleged to have crashed near Chhindwara on the way to Nagpur. The exact specifics of the incident are unknown at this time, however, the car is alleged to have split in half when it crashed. 

Besides being one of the best-selling SUVs in India, the vehicle is well-equipped with safety features. The Kia Seltos has up to six airbags, ABS with EBD, an emergency stop signal, vehicle stability management, electronic stability control, and other safety features. All of these qualities are usually believed to be important in making an automobile safe. However, even the best protective systems cannot always hold their ground, and this tragedy is a prime illustration. 

Kia Seltos initially appeared at the 2018 Indian Auto Expo as the Kia SP2 Concept.  The vehicle has since then become the Korean brand's staple in the Indian market. 

According to reports from the site, all three passengers of the Kia Seltos were killed in the incident. The Kia Seltos is said to have torn in two as a result of the accident. However, the conclusion is a little dubious. 

There are signs that the Kia Seltos was machine-cut. A grinder or a chainsaw may have been used. The precise explanation for this is unknown at this time. However, a feasible explanation may be that the passengers of the automobile were trapped inside and unable to move. 

Because of the collision, the doors may be stuck shut, and those trying to rescue needed to get them open. The windows may have been shattered to assist them, but the occupants may have been too damaged to simply pull themselves out of the window. There are really too many possibilities here, and whatever we say right now is just speculative. 

However, we can affirm that the Kia Seltos did not split in half as a result of the collision. The roof and right side of the automobile have clean-cut lines. The automobile's left portion, on the other hand, offers a different narrative. The hit has occurred on the left side. The Kia Seltos has in most probability collided with a bridge at high speed. The SUV's left side has been seriously damaged. 

The Kia Seltos is a superbly designed vehicle, but the accident appears to have cast a negative light on it. 

Kia officials are launching an inquiry, and a team from Kia India may also be involved.
