Which SUV Has More Features?

This is where the Sierra has a bigger lead with features like 12.3 inch screens including one extra for the passenger plus dual powered seats, powered tailgate, 13 speaker audio system with sound bar, extendable thigh support, boss mode and much more. The Seltos doesn't get these features though and that's a big miss. Both SUVs have a panoramic sunroof, ADAS, dual zone climate control, safety features, connected car features and more. The Seltos has an extra 5inch screen for the HVAC though, side parking sensors, 10 way power driver seat and memory ORVM function.
