A lower-spec variant of the Seltos has been spied in Korea... looks like this particular one's missing the LED DRLs and foglamps. Source 1 Source 2

Came across this walkaround... gives a nice up-close look at the six-seater Ertiga concept  

Hey everyone,   We are planning for an all India road trip in December 2020. We are a group of 3 guys and we will be driving a 2019 Ford Endeavour Titanium+ on this trip. The car is new and suits the trip based on our research. The discussions, research and planning started a few weeks ago. We have quite a bit of time for us to finalise our plan. We request everyone's support in making this a success. Some of our plans could be over-ambitious and unrealistic. If any part of our plan is impossible, please let us know. We want to have the best possible plan for the trip. Without a lot of help from the fellow forum members, it’s not going to be possible to plan such a massive trip.   The three of us will be 18.5 years old when we embark on this journey. 2 of us will have an Indian driving license and the other 1 of us will have a Singaporean driving license with an international permit. We have driven on certain bad road conditions and also in traffic conditions of village, town, city and highway roads. We have also done a little bit of offroading. However, we are not really used to driving on dangerous roads as we are NRIs. I would also like to mention that we came up with this plan after taking inspiration from other people's plans.   Let me start the discussion by submitting our draft route plan and schedule. Please go through and advise us to plan better. We welcome all suggestions and advice. We are happy to welcome all those who are interested to join us on this drive. It is not a must that those who join should cover all the distance. Please join us at any point and leave us at any point as well. If you want to use our plan, go ahead!   Day 1: Chennai - B.

Thanks to everyone in advance!
