Had this car brand new in 2020. After having 28,000kms. Kia gave me a new engine from deffective parts. Took 3wks. Then drove less than 300kms and was stranded 2hrs. On the road due to a lose hose clamp for the coolant. Not machanics fault. Bad clamp. My neighbor has the 2022 seltos. It burns oil after 10,000kms. I really liked my seltos ex. Until all this happened. I found the perfect replacement vehicle when i traded it in. Please people. DO RESEARCH. The car is great. The engine since 2018 hasn't changed and kia continues to build cars with the crappy 2.0L. Sportage 2.4L. Same as hyundai. No issues but do research. Get the best selling car and expect to NOT pay more than $32,000 for brand new. Used cars are ridiculously expensive right now. If you can wait get new and save money and be on the road.. Not parked beside it. Be safe.. And check out the Subaru Crosstrek. Fyi.

Overall, the Seltos is a great car, especially as an around town vehicle. I’m averaging 32+ around town. On the highway, I have averaged 42+mpg! If I were to buy again, I would opt for the SX or higher, simply to have more features. . I have the S all wheel drive. The one thing that irritates me is the manual driver seat. Guess, I’m spoiled having had power seats. The rear view mirror sits a little low and can create a blind spot. But if I lower the seat, it’s not a problem. This is a great vehicle for the price. The car has been great around town. Again, if I were to get another one, I would go to the EX. Just more bells and whistles.

This car is the smoothest driving I’ve ever had. The features are great and It handles perfectly and is also spacious enough for my fiancé and our big 2 labs. Gas mileage is awesome. Price is great too. All around a solid purchase.

Seems these dual clutch transmissions are failing big time. My 2021 SX-T has been at dealers now over a month needing 1. ECU Reflash then 2. Needed a module then, 3. needs a gasket and finally 4. say it needs an actuator which there are NONE in the US or Korea. My service advisor said it could take months. Totally unhappy with spending $31000 for top of the line to now have to join the list of new Seltos owners who can only enjoy their car if they go to the dealership and sit in the car and make Varoom noises. I am 70 years old and have driven 16 cars over 1,1000,000 miles. My last vehicle went 240,000 miles before it needed a tranny. This one lasted 33,000 miles which, if you google DCT issues, is a very long life. Do yourself a favor and avoid the Seltos with either transmission because they are crap UPDATE 10/30/2021 Just got latest news from the Car company from hell. After replacing the actuator twice, the geniuses told me yesterday that I need a whole new transmission. Wonder how long this will take. Bald Hill Kia, Warwick, RI keeps throwing [non-permissible content removed] at the wall. How many minutes do you think it will take me to list this lemon for sale if I ever get it back. Totally disgusted that I have to deal with this [non-permissible content removed] company UPDATE 11/9/21 SO NOW THEY SAY KIA GAVE OK TO REPLACE WHOLE TRANNY. Of course, there's none around but they assure me one is on the way. No one I have spoken to believes any of this. Go ahead, buy 1 and prove me wrong. NO INTO 3RD MONTH ON KIA HELL UPDATE 11/18/21 Got it back today after 10 weeks and 2 days. no charge new tranny and battery. NOW A WAIT AND SEE GAME
