The Kia Seltos arrives in the Canadian market with a compelling blend of refined styling, innovative technology, comprehensive safety features, and available turbocharged power. Built to deliver more in every aspect, the Seltos establishes itself as a standout option in the competitive compact SUV segment. With its driver-focused cabin design, excellent visibility, and intuitive controls, the Seltos creates a driving experience that puts you firmly in command.
Kia positions the Kia Seltos as a technology leader in its class, incorporating numerous advanced features that enhance convenience and driving enjoyment. The cabin has a driver-centric design philosophy emphasizing clean aesthetics, excellent sightlines, and intuitive control over all driving aspects.
The available 10.25-inch TFT LCD supervision cluster provides vital driving information while allowing you to maintain focus on the road ahead. This high-resolution display presents critical data in a clear, easily digestible format that reduces driver distraction.
Further enhancing the technological experience, the available heads-up display (HUD) subtly projects key driving information onto a secondary screen above the steering wheel. This feature allows drivers to monitor essential information without taking their eyes off the road, adding a layer of safety and convenience.
The centrepiece of the cabin’s technology suite is the available 10.25-inch multimedia interface with integrated touchscreen navigation. This system is the command centre for entertainment, navigation, and vehicle settings, offering intuitive controls and crisp visuals.
One of the most innovative features available in the Seltos is the Digital Key 2 Touch. This technology transforms your smartphone into your car key, eliminating needing a physical key fob. The system also allows you to transfer a secure digital key to others who may need to drive the vehicle, adding unprecedented convenience to vehicle access and sharing.
For audiophiles, the available Bose premium audio system delivers crystal clear, balanced sound throughout the cabin, transforming the Seltos into a concert hall on wheels.
The Kia Seltos tells a story of roominess and comfort from the moment you step inside. The interior features standard heated front seats across all trim levels, ensuring comfort during Canada’s cold winter.
Available amenities elevate the experience further, including automatic climate control that maintains your ideal cabin temperature without constant adjustments. The premium EX Premium and above trims feature beautiful Sofino leather seating, combining luxury and durability. For drivers who share their vehicle, the convenient driver seat memory function stores preferred seating positions for quick recall.
The Seltos offers a spacious environment for both front and rear passengers. Higher trim levels include heated rear seats and air-cooled front seats, extending comfort to all occupants regardless of weather conditions. The X-Line and SX trims can be equipped with Sofino Black leather or the distinctive Sofino Gentle Brown leather, adding a touch of sophistication to the cabin.
Additional interior comforts include an available heated steering wheel, leather-wrapped steering wheel and gear shift knob, sliding centre armrest, rear centre armrest with cupholders, and adjustable rear seat headrests. In higher trims, chrome finish interior door handles add a premium touch to the cabin experience.
The Kia Seltos arrives with more standard safety features than ever, providing peace of mind through next-level technologies that protect drivers and passengers.
Forward collision avoidance assist is standard and designed to detect and alert you if a potential front collision appears imminent. The system can automatically apply brakes if necessary, potentially preventing or mitigating collision severity.
Blind-spot collision-avoidance assist uses radar to detect vehicles in your blind spot. It may apply braking power when an approaching vehicle is within a certain distance next to or behind your vehicle.
Lane follow assist employs a camera at the front windshield to detect lane markers, helping to keep your vehicle centred in the lane. This reduces driver fatigue on long journeys and enhances overall safety.
Available rear cross-traffic avoidance-assist helps detect approaching cross traffic when reversing. When cross traffic is detected, the system alerts the driver and may apply brakes to prevent potential collisions.
Additional safety features include highway driving assist, Safe Exit Assist System, Rear Occupant Alert, and a rearview camera with dynamic guidelines. These systems create a comprehensive safety cocoon around the Seltos and its occupants.
The Seltos excels in versatility, offering the flexibility and space to carry all essential cargo for your next adventure. With rear seats folded, the Seltos provides up to 1,778 litres (62.8 cubic feet) of cargo space. Even with the rear seats in use, cargo capacity remains impressive at 752 litres (26.5 cubic feet) with the rear cargo floor lowered.
Access to this generous cargo area comes with thoughtful touches. The available power liftgate opens automatically if you stand next to your vehicle for three seconds with your Smart Key—a particularly helpful feature when your hands are full. The dual-level cargo floor allows you to adapt the cargo area to meet specific needs, while integrated roof rails help transport oversized cargo securely.
The Kia Seltos offers two distinct powertrains to suit different driving preferences. The LX and EX trims feature a 2.0L 4-cylinder MPI engine that produces 147 horsepower at 6,200 rpm and 132 lb-ft of torque at 4,500 rpm. This engine pairs with the Kia Intelligent Variable Transmission (IVT) for smooth power delivery.
For those seeking more spirited performance, the SX and X-Line trims come equipped with a 1.6L 4-cylinder Turbo GDI engine generating 195 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 195 lb-ft of torque at 4,500 rpm. This turbocharged engine uses an 8-speed automatic transmission for responsive acceleration and refined cruising.
The Seltos offers both front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive configurations. The LX FWD and EX FWD trims feature front-wheel drive, while the LX AWD, EX AWD, EX PREMIUM, SX, and X-Line all come standard with all-wheel drive. The all-wheel drive system includes a locking differential for enhanced traction in challenging conditions.
Fuel efficiency remains impressive across the lineup. Front-wheel drive models achieve 8.3 L/100 km city, 6.8 L/100 km highway, and 7.6 L/100 km combined. All-wheel drive models with the 2.0L engine deliver 8.8 L/100 km city, 7.5 L/100 km highway, and 8.2 L/100 km combined. The more powerful turbocharged models return 9.7 L/100 km city, 8.6 L/100 km highway, and 9.2 L/100 km combined.
All models feature a 50-litre fuel tank and run on regular unleaded fuel, avoiding the premium fuel requirement often associated with turbocharged engines.
The Kia Seltos presents refined and distinctive styling across all trim levels. The base LX FWD and LX AWD trims come equipped with 17-inch alloy wheels, automatic headlights, halogen bi-function projection headlights, projection fog lights, rear spoiler with LED high mounted stop lamp, rear privacy tint glass, body-coloured sideview mirrors with heating functionality, sideview mirror signal repeaters, body-coloured door handles, front and rear silver skid plate bumper accents, heated washer nozzles, roof rails, and splash guards.
Moving up to the EX AWD trim adds LED headlights, taillights, fog lights, LED positioning lights, LED daytime running lights, front door solar glass, a chrome-coated grille, satin chrome beltline trim, and a power sunroof.
The EX Premium further enhances the exterior with 17-inch alloy wheels featuring a machine finish, while the SX trim steps up to 18-inch alloy wheels.
The X-Line trim stands out with unique styling elements including glossy black wheels, gun metal coloured front grille, front and rear skid plates in gun metal colour, black roof rails in bar style, an X-Line emblem, and lower side doors with black garnishes.
Colour options for the Kia Seltos include Snow White Pearl, Steel Grey, Gravity Grey, Fusion Black, Neptune Blue, Lunar Orange, Dark Ocean Blue, and Pluton Blue, allowing for personalization to suit individual tastes.
The Kia Seltos offers a comprehensive trim lineup to meet diverse needs and preferences:
The Kia Seltos is backed by the comprehensive Kia warranty program, demonstrating the brand’s confidence in their vehicles’ quality and reliability. This warranty includes a 5-year/100,000 km worry-free comprehensive warranty, a 5-year/100,000 km limited powertrain warranty, and 5-year/unlimited km 24-hour roadside assistance.
The Kia Seltos is a compelling option in the Canadian compact SUV market. With its blend of refined styling, innovative technology, comprehensive safety features, versatile interior, and choice of efficient powertrains, the Seltos delivers on its promise to provide more in every aspect of the driving experience. Whether navigating urban environments or embarking on weekend adventures, the Seltos offers the capabilities, comfort, and confidence Canadian drivers demand.
