All-new for the 2021 model year, the Kia Seltos delivers a convenient blend of versatility, comfort, and maneuverability. A little bigger than the Kia Soul but not as big as the Kia Sportage, Seltos finds an ideal middle ground, offering spacious utility while maintaining a smaller physical footprint. Kia's newest crossover comes generously equipped across five trim levels, with numerous tech, safety, comfort, and convenience amenities. Here's a look at what each tier offers.
Kia Seltos LX
The Kia Seltos comes standard with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder that makes 146 horsepower and 132 pound-feet of torque. The engine pairs with a continuously variable automatic transmission, and all-wheel-drive comes standard on all but the S trim, on which it is optional. Seltos offers 26.6 cubic feet behind the second-row, and with the 60/40-split rear seats folded, cargo capacity grows to 63 cubic feet.
Exterior features of the base trim include:
- 17-inch alloy wheels
