My wife had a Kia Forte for 8 years and loved it, but it was time for a change and I wanted her in a slightly larger, safer vehicle. She absolutely loves her Seltos. We've had it 9 months, 6000 miles with no issues. I'm 6' and 245 and find it very comfortable, but so does my 5'3", 130 wife. Great mileage, up to 38 and 41 on the road, but about 35-36 mpg in town (much better than her old Forte). It has incredible cargo space for a CUV, but also good passenger space including the rear seating. Ride is solid and smooth. At first we were disappointed that there wasn't Sirius radio, but actually don't miss it. The safety features like the lane correction took some getting used to, but now we both appreciate it. As others have noted, there will be a few tweaks with future year models, but we love our Seltos. The starbright yellow and black gets lots of comments!

With a sticker of about $24,000 this is a fun quality runabout! Smooth ride, nice pick up, sporty look and interior and a real kick to drive. Handles like a dream for this price. Not a bad amount of room for its size, although the backseat legroom is lacking. No button to release the hatch though? Seriously?

Too noisy

After reading about the Seltos I was eagee to test drive one. I have a 2016 Kia Soul + with 37000 miles and have been very impressed with Kia. The soul has no squeaks or rattles or had any major issues at all. Our daughter it's getting too tall for the back seat so we're looking to upsize our ride. The quality of the Seltos appeared to be the same as my Soul. It wasn't until I test drove it that I became severely disappointed. Right off the lot the road noise was horrible. I drove it down the highway a city street and a country road at speeds up to 55 MPH. This dealer only has the one Seltos and the poor sales person completely deflated when I told her the road noise was a deal-breaker. To put the noise level in perspective let me tell you this: I am an appliance repair Tech and I drive a cargo van all week long. The Seltos was almost as noisy as riding in the van.
