Our verdict

These two split the decision: the Nissan Tekton is रु 7,90,100 cheaper ex-showroom (9%), while the Kia Seltos is ahead on dealer and service reach — so the answer depends on which of those you are buying for.

  • you want servicing within reach of where you live
  • you want a dealer close enough to visit and negotiate at

Measured: 5 more service centres in Nepal (30 vs 25); 8 more showrooms in Nepal (43 vs 35).

Choose the Nissan Tekton if
  • the ex-showroom price is your binding constraint
  • you drive loaded, or climb steep gradients often

Measured: 27 Nm more torque.

Every figure in this verdict is computed from the table below — the same ex-showroom prices, variant specifications and Nepal service network the page publishes. Nothing here is an estimate, and where a figure is missing on one side the axis is left out rather than guessed.
