Saved me Seltos

I purchased a new 2022 Seltos that arrived and was ready for me on the exact day that my car rental ran out. I had totaled my previous vehicle in mid March and shopping for a car then was pretty much a nightmare. The Seltos is very nice and exceeded my expectations on several fronts. I purchased the S package and love the seats and interior design. The gas mileage is better that I hoped for, reaching 39 mpg on trips. The mapping and navigation are great. The car is very comfortable though smaller than I am used to. It looks great in the driveway and has performed well.

I love the feel and ride I options of this vehicle. It's a comfortable ride with a good amount of cargo space for a small suv. It's loaded with safety features except it doesn't have the pedestrian alert. It's not luxury but they do alright with comfort. My son who is 6' 2" says the front is a little cramped when someone is in the backseat, but alright if no one is behind you.

Gray Ghost Seltos S fwd 2.0

Got him in march, only have 1200 miles because of Corona virus and I am a caregiver. I feel he's more than adequate in all areas for my personal tastes. Would have loved electric adjustment seats and a cargo cover of some sort but I like privacy tint in its place. Acceleration is pretty good, ride is ok too. Some types road surface do let the sound in but that's just the way it is sometimes. Unfortunately nobody has really been in it as it sits in the garage alot, for now.... Did real good on the Eldorado Hills grade and second hill too. Like the infotainment system it is a little finicky with my phone plugged into and on android auto mode tho. Like the looks yoo, wheels looks awsome.
