Positive Review

"absolute best in it's category"

exterior styling is absolutely best especially the front end with awesome lighting. black cladding and fake brushed aluminum looking pieces are in the right place and done perfectly. DRL is unique and the parking RL that goes across the front is unique and awesome at night time. overall interior design and functions are logically laid out and easy to use. 2.0 and iVT is good enough for commuting and long distance driving. KIA has the best LKA [lane keep assist]. MPG is also very good for power/weight/upright vehicle. easily average 32MPG in mixed driving / commute. it definitely looks much more expanse than it actually cost.

Critical Review

"Worst on the market"

Love the style, however, Kia dropped the ball. Needed a new transmission at 5k and 10k a new engine.

kia seltos 2027 Image - 47556581
Pros

The Turbo 4 cylinder

Cons

Back seat comfort

The Mars orange is what attracted me to the car never even looked or considered a seltos was driving 2023 Kia soul GT line which I enjoyed driving but after looking at 2025 Kia seltos x-line I was sold the turbo has some good pep to it and will get out of the way of something need be front seats comfortable rear little to be desired I would not want to be back there for a long trip was surprised the Kia connect is 3 yrs free which was a plus. Overall I enjoyed driving the Vehicle so far will update after I’ve had it for some time.The 4 star is for the back seat not an issue with me but could understand if I had to sit back there

2025 kia seltos s (pluton blue)

Love this car! I have had this lease for a little over a year and so far it has given me no problems what so ever. So i decided to end the cycle of leasing and buy out my lease. Since my lease was still considered a new car 2025,with low mileage 6,700,the banks can finance out max term 84 months,7 years. This keeps my payments kinda low around $450 a month and that is a win,win!

I Cant Quit It
Pros

Reliable. Comfortable. Sound system ROCKS (Bose).

Cons

No sensor for the tailgate.

I purchased my Seltos 2 yrs ago mostly for the turbo feature. A light tap on the accelerator and this puppy punches up to 60 mph fast! 4 doors for convenience. The ONE negative is that it doesnt have the automatic tailgate sensor so that I can open it with my foot.

Beautiful 2024 Kia Seltos SX
Pros

Interior and exterior Aesthetics. Roominess.

Cons

N/A

My wife saw the 2024 Kia Seltos SX in the two tone Pluton Blue. She asked me to sell my truck and got me this as a gift. It is a great looking car. With the turbo engine, it is very peppy, really. Once the turbo kicks in, it can move. Due to being a subcompact, it is very easy to maneuver, complete u-turns, and park. Love the comfort, the interior aesthetics, AWD, etc. I absolutely love this car. Great job, Kia.

Really good
Pros

Size, mpg, reliable

Perfect commuter vehicle. I got it just for that: not long road trips. I’m old, so for long trips I prefer a more serene, smooth ride. I’m not in it more than an hour or so at a time. Have had for 3 plus years. Average 30-31 mpg over all. It’s the sx turbo because I wanted all the bells and whistles on the top model. This baby has everything.
