Tata Punch EV

The Punch EV from Tata Motors is the most reasonably priced car with ventilated seats. The Altroz Racer was the previous grade, however Tata has since discontinued it, and the most recent iteration of this high-end hatchback is devoid of this feature. 

The most affordable car on the Indian market is the Punch EV Empowered+ model, which costs Rs 12.84 lakh ex-showroom and has factory-installed front ventilated seats. 

Top features such as electronic parking brake, numerous drive modes (City, Sport, and Eco), disc brakes, Hill Hold Control, and a 7.2 kW AC fast charger are available on the 11-model mini EV SUV.

Kia Syros

Despite having more functions than its more expensive twin, the Sonet, the quirky-looking Syros is nonetheless more reasonably priced. Starting at Rs 13.30 lakh, the HTX, HTX Plus, and HTX Plus (O) models come with front-ventilated seats. 

It is the only car with front and rear seats that can be ventilated. The 1.5-liter diesel and the 1-liter turbocharged petrol are the two engine options available for these grades. The 1.2-liter naturally aspirated petrol engine is not available on the Syros, in contrast to the Sonet.

Skoda Kylaq

The Kylaq, a subcompact SUV, has quickly risen to the top of Skoda's sales charts. There are three main versions of the Kylaq: Classic, Signature, and Prestige. The only trim level featuring front ventilated seats is the Prestige. 

There is only one engine choice for the SUV, a 1-liter turbocharged petrol engine that produces 114 horsepower and 178 Nm of torque. Either a 6-speed automatic torque converter gearbox or a 6-speed manual gearbox is included. The ex-showroom pricing of the Prestige version is Rs 12.89 lakh.

The second-row occupants in the six-seater MPV have separate seats, also known as captain seats. The 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine that powers it produces 102 horsepower and 139 Nm of torque. Either a 6-speed automated torque converter or a 5-speed manual torque converter is coupled to the MPV.
