This was shared to me. I found them pretty useless. The car will be blinging with chrome all over. On top of that Dealerships have been pushing customers to take accessories to get early delivery or wait as per standard waiting time

Thanks for sharing this list.

For X line owners this is is a useless list of putting chrome all over again after the all de-chromed exterior. From this list there is not even one item that I would want from the dealer.

Hello Team-BHPians!!
I hope everyone is doing well!
Cancelled the Creta SX(O) Diesel MT booking and have booked the Seltos GTX+ Diesel AT Aurora Black Pearl today. Hoping to have a fuss free and memorable ownership experience.
OTR= 24,20,000 excluding accessories.
The only accessories I'm planning to get are screen protector and key cover that's it.
Delivery date has been decided as 15th October, Navratri

Nothing on this is actually useful or worth it. As good as the car is, the accessories are that bad.

IMT transmission in Kia cars are not automatics. These are manual gear shifts with no physical clutch for the driver. The clutch action is done by the electronics inside. So it is like a "normal " manual car with gear stick. One feature of IMTs is that the engine does not stall even if you come to a complete halt even say in fourth gear as the system dis-engages the clutch internally.

AMT transmissions are Automatic Manual Transmissions which are "automatic" for the driver although internally the gear box is a normal manual gear box but the entire gear shifts (not only clutch) are managed by the electronics.

Hope this clarifies IMT and AMTs.

Also I have heard that BH series numbers are being predominantly allotted to central government employs only. Plus, while selling the car, the car will get transferred to another person who meets the BH number criteria (i.e., is a employee of a company which has offices in 4 cities, etc.). Otherwise, the buyer will need to get the re-registered and the ex-showroom price is used for all calculations in this regard - which is incorrect as the car would have depreciated. Overall, BH number series seems good on paper and impractical in reality.

BH number plates are given to those who are either government employees or have their businesses and setup in mor than 5 states. This was confirmed to be by both Hyundai and Kia Dealerships. It is one single country then why is there a criterion for a number plate?

Here is the list shared with me. The ones that interest me are floor mats, dashcam and sun film. When asked about brand of dashcam, the guy replied "it's from Kia only", meaning "I have no idea". The sun film seems to be of UltraKool brand. Can anybody comment on the quality of this brand and also on the "Kia" dashcam? Is it worth taking from the dealer or better to do it after-market?

I guess its the same Dashcam that Hyundai is selling for 11.5k. You can get dashcam aftermarket at a cheaper rate or a superior product at the similar price.
