Above all else, your vehicle must be ready to take you wherever you need to go. Engineering that combines strength, ability, and efficiency will ensure that each drive lives up to your expectations, and the Kia Seltos offers it all.
Kia engineers have spent countless hours perfecting the mechanical design that makes the Kia Seltos fun to drive. There are two main configurations: a 2.0L and a turbocharged 1.6L motor. Both engines are paired with equally impressive systems that help make the most of every moment behind the wheel.
| Engine Design | 2.0L 4-cylinder | 1.6L Turbocharged 4-cylinder |
| Horsepower | 147 HP | 195 HP |
| Torque | 132 lb-ft | 195 lb-ft |
| Transmission | Intelligent Variable Transmission | 8-Speed Automatic |
All Kia Seltos models also come standard with Drive Mode Select. Choose from various modes to match road or weather conditions or even your mood at the moment.
Fuel economy is always a desirable feature. Aiding this Kia's efficiency is standard Idle Stop and Go. When you come to a standstill, such as at a stop sign or red light, the engine will automatically shut off to conserve fuel, then restart when you engage the accelerator.
The Kia Seltos offers the choice of front-wheel drive (FWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD). FWD models achieve an 8.3 city/6.8 highway L/100 km, while AWD trims earn a fuel economy rating of 8.8 city/7.5 highway L/100 km.* No matter which drivetrain your Kia Seltos has, it will get you to your destination efficiently.
Most of your time with the Kia Seltos will be spent inside its cabin. This compact model has plenty to offer you and your passengers during your next action-packed getaway. Thanks to its sleek design, you'll be cruising in comfort and style.
Whether you're heading out alone or bringing friends along for the journey, the Kia Seltos gives you plenty of room. Thanks to its cabin, which maximizes space, everyone can stretch out and find their own personal comfort zone.

Everyone's bags can easily fit within the 752-litre (26.6-cubic-foot) rear cargo area. If you have more luggage or larger packages to transport, simply fold down the rear seats to access 1,778 litres (62.8 cubic feet) of cargo capacity.
Along with having plenty of room to stretch out, premium features help you stay comfortable during long drives. Available Sofino leather is a synthetic, eco-friendly alternative that will elevate your driving experience. It offers the premium look and feel of genuine leather while being easy to clean and far more durable, resisting wear, fading, and cracking.
Heated front seats come standard and will help you stay cozy on chilly mornings and cool evenings or relieve some of the day's tension. Available heating for second-row seats extends that comfort to your passengers. You can locate your ideal position with the available power driver's seat, which includes 2-way power lumbar support and memory. Once you've found your sweet spot, you can start the next leg of your epic road trip.
When you infuse a well-designed vehicle with cutting-edge tech, every drive becomes more engaging. The Kia Seltos has systems to keep you informed, your passengers entertained, and everyone safer. This is how Kia takes care of all your needs on each drive.
The available 10.25-inch touchscreen display is a gateway to all kinds of intuitive features. You can access navigation to find food and fuel, stay connected to your smart device with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, and more. It's paired with an optional 10.25-inch instrument display to make your essential info easily visible.
The available wireless charger makes it easy to keep your phone powered at 100%. While you're charging, you can stream your favourite music in superior quality with the Bose® premium audio system. It uses eight speakers to turn the cabin into your own concert hall.
Meanwhile, use Digital Key 2 Touch through your phone to lock/unlock doors and start your Seltos without a key fob. You can even share access with a friend or family member.
Because the roadways and other drivers are unpredictable, being prepared for anything is a vital part of staying safe on the road. Kia Drive Wise technologies are driver-assistive systems that work in the background to help keep you alert and aware. These standard systems work along with your good driving habits to help ensure everyone arrives safe and sound at your destination:
- Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist
- Lane Keep Assist/Lane Follow Assist
- Blind-Spot Collision Avoidance Assist
- Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist
- Rearview Camera with Dynamic Parking Guidelines
These advanced safety systems offer an extra layer of protection, keeping an eye out for you and others, even in those hard-to-see areas. As a result, you'll have greater peace of mind whenever you're behind the wheel.

Although the Kia Seltos and the Hyundai Kona are comparable in many respects, the Seltos offers many more opportunities for customization. From additional trim levels to almost twice as many colour options, the Kia enables you to personalize it to your taste more completely. Once you step inside the Kia Seltos, you'll experience next-level comfort, too.

When planning for intense drives, the Kia Seltos is ready to conquer the road with more available horsepower than you'll see in the Crosstrek. Its larger cabin allows more gear to be loaded in for the trip, and extra driver-assistive technologies give you an advantage when you need it most.

The Kia Seltos boasts an abundance of options to consider. Its wide array of paint finishes and unique trim levels allow you to find a model that's as unique as you are. The HR-V falls short of giving you similar options--the vast difference in cargo space further seals the Kia Seltos as the smart choice.
