Used 2021 Kia Seltos SUV Trims Comparison

LX
The base Seltos is powered by a 146-hp four-cylinder engine paired to a continuously variable transmission (CVT) and standard all-wheel drive. You also get:

• 17-inch wheels
• Keyless entry
• Tinted rear glass
• 8-inch touchscreen
• Apple CarPlay and Android Auto

S
The S trim starts the same base MSRP as the LX and includes most of the same equipment. Major differences include:

• Optional (rather than standard) all-wheel drive bundled with heated front seats
• Foglights
• Optional two-tone paint
• Heated mirrors
• Simulated leather upholstery

You also get these advanced driver safety features:

• Lane departure warning (alerts you if the vehicle begins to drift out of its lane)
• Lane keeping assist (steers the car back into its lane if it begins to drift over the lane marker)
• Automatic high beams (can brighten or dim automatically)

S Turbo
As the name implies, the S Turbo is basically a Seltos S with the more powerful turbocharged engine (175 hp). It's paired to a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. Unlike the S, all-wheel drive comes standard. Other changes include:

• 18-inch wheels
• Exterior trim color changes
• Standard blind-spot monitoring (alerts you if a vehicle in the next lane over is in your blind spot)
• Standard rear cross-traffic alert (warns you if a vehicle behind you is about to cross your vehicle's path while in reverse)

• Sunroof
• Leather upholstery with heated front seats
• Power-adjustable driver's seat
• Automatic climate control
• Front and rear USB ports and wireless device charging

SX
The top-of-the-line SX is basically an EX with the turbocharged engine and the S Turbo's styling details. In addition to the EX's features, the SX includes:

• LED headlights and foglights
• Optional sunroof
• Cargo cover
• 10.25-inch touchscreen with navigation
• Premium Bose audio system
• Adaptive cruise control (adjusts speed to maintain a constant distance between the Seltos and the car in front)
