The Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder was released in 2022 but was updated in 2026, and the Kia Seltos is the most recent model that was released in 2026. Both these SUVs are currently in their first generation. These SUVs are available in multiple powertrains. For the Seltos, the diesel variant delivers the best claimed mileage at 20.7 Km\/l. For the Hyryder, its strong hybrid delivers 27.97 Km\/l and the CNG delivers 26.6 Km\/Kg mileage.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Seltos has naturally aspirated petrol, turbo petrol and diesel engine options. The Hyryder comes with a NeoDrive (mild hybrid), a petrol+electric strong hybrid and a petrol+CNG engine option. Each variant has unique engine and transmission combinations.

To make the calculations easier, the petrol price is set at Rs. 110, Rs. 100 for diesel and Rs. 90 for CNG. These are rough averages of the current fuel prices in India. The average monthly distance for these SUVs is set at 1500 Km.
