First Drive: Kia Seltos

I have to admit, I am getting a little tired of SUVs, but it is really the only thing most manufacturers make these days. So I placate my SUV fatigue by driving classic cars as much as possible. While there is seemingly an endless choice of small SUVs to choose from the Kia Seltos does stand out as an all-around great value for a daily driver. After a week, here is what stood out…

Tech-Filled Interior: Step inside the Kia Seltos and be greeted by a world of advanced technology. With two expansive 10.3-inch digital displays adorning the dashboard, navigating through features is a breeze. Unlike its competitors, the Seltos keeps it simple with physical buttons for climate and media controls, ensuring ease of use without distracting from the driving experience.

Optimized Space: Despite its subcompact form factor, the Seltos maximizes interior space for both passengers and cargo. From cleverly integrated storage spaces to a wireless charging pad seamlessly tucked away, every inch is utilized efficiently. Whether it’s a weekend getaway or a daily commute, the Seltos offers comfort and practicality for all your needs.

Enhanced Performance: The 2024 Seltos packs a punch with its turbocharged engine, now delivering 20 extra horsepower compared to its predecessor. Coupled with an eight-speed automatic transmission, it offers smooth acceleration and responsive power delivery. Whether cruising on the freeway or maneuvering through city streets, the Seltos keep up with ease.

Impressive Handling: Experience refined handling and agility with the Seltos. Despite its compact size, this SUV offers remarkable composure on the road, providing a smooth and connected driving experience. From navigating tight corners to cruising down the highway, the Seltos maintains stability and control, ensuring a confident ride every time.

Value for Money: With a starting price of roughly $32,000, the Seltos packs a lot of value for your money. Loaded with features such as heated and ventilated front seats, driver aids, ambient lighting, and a sunroof, it offers luxury and convenience without breaking the bank. Say goodbye to compromise and hello to the perfect blend of affordability and quality with the 2024 Kia Seltos.
