New: In the C 63 S E PERFORMANCE, it is possible to intelligently distribute the use of electric energy over a racetrack lap in TRACK PACE in order to optimize the lap time with the targeted use of the electric motor's power. This track-based boost strategy is to be successively extended to over 70 courses via download. Before driving, the driver simply has to select the track in the central display, for example the German Hockenheimring, and then switch on the boost strategy. The RACE driving program is activated automatically. In the instrument cluster and head-up display, the vehicle shows an upcoming boost sector. When boosting (via kickdown with 150 kW of electric power), a countdown and a horizontal bar count down the seconds. As soon as the display indicates the end of the boost sector, the driver should release the kickdown. Two options are available: a strategy for a particularly fast single lap ("Hot Lap") and another strategy for several evenly fast laps in succession ("Endurance Mode"). In a further expansion stage, the individual boost sectors will also be shown in the multimedia display in the track view. The boost feature will be introduced in the course of next year.

The 2023 Seltos is a carryover model with minor feature enhancements in the areas of noise reduction and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) – newly added Blindspot Collision Avoidance-Rear (BCA-R) and Rear-Cross-Traffic Collision Avoidance (RCCA) to the S FWD and S AWD trim levels. This model continues to represent Kia in the Entry CUV segment with an emotional design, superior size and space, the latest safety features, advanced infotainment, and available all-wheel-drive (AWD) capability and turbo-charged performance.
Continuing its commitment to accelerate mainstream adoption of electric vehicles, Hyundai Motor America will provide 250 kilowatt-hours of complimentary charging on Electrify America’s ultra-fast charging network for owners of 2021 Kona Electric and Ioniq Electric models. Customers can access their complimentary charging by the easy-to-use Electrify America mobile app that will also help drivers find and navigate to Electrify America stations and to start a charging session. 250 kilowatt-hours equals about 1,000 miles of EPA estimated driving range in a 2021 Hyundai Kona Electric or Ioniq Electric.
