From Sportage to Seltos
This is a solid, competent SUV. Impressive features and ability for a little mite. Has commodious room for such a small footprint. I'm getting strong gas mileage 31 hwy and 28 City, only issue there is the tank is small 13.2 gls. I did bounce for the S AWD model to get the extra safety features as well as AWD for Michigan living. Also when you get AWD heated seats come along with the package, also nice for Michigan! I've been impressed with the huspa it has. I keep it in normal mode, as I did my turbo Sportage. Because it only has a curb weight of 3,076lbs. it doesn't take a lot to move it around quickly. Haven't even had it in sport mode yet. I also like the advantage of a center lock differential a nice feature I've not been able to experience yet. The car handles well, but rough bumps give it some jitters. It's happy to go 80mph in "smart" mode and doesn't struggle at all. Lots of hard plastic inside that I'm not crazy about, but all in all the ergonomics is pleasant. If I could have bounce another $2,200 I would have preferred the EX. It comes std. with a sunroof and some more safety features. I'm a large guy and go 242lbs. and I can get in and out easily. I was always hitting my head on my Sportage when entering. I tried to sit in a Stinger, but struggled so badly to get in it wasn't worth it at any price for me. So if you want a nice vehicle with many extras, get the "S" for sure and maybe even the EX. For the money you'll be making a good choice! Here's a bummer, a week after my purchase and only 908 miles on my car, that included a 400 mile trip, I had a bad fall. Although not related, testing showed I had an aneurysm behind my right knee and need surgery. So my baby, that I love is in my garage with storage insurance(:

Goldilocks is pleased!
I was looking for a small SUV, but one with decent cargo space. Bigger SUV's were out of my price range and all the sub-compacts were too small. I was looking for a decent size crossover and I found it in the Seltos. It's got the room i was looking for, a nice ride, AWD, and all the accessories I need and none I don't. If you're 6'2" or above it might be cramped but other than that I it just works. So far, I love this thing. Update: with snow tires it really handled the winter conditions with no problems. I found it to be as good as my old Subaru in the snow. 4k miles in and still loving it.

Check engine
I just purchased my Seltos three weeks ago with 66 miles on it. I was happy the first few days and then my check engine light came on. Took it to dealership and they said they had to reset a recall. Here I am on week three and the check engine light is back on!!!!!!!!!!! I regret my decision already! I love the features of the vehicle but it’s not worth the inconvenience of recalls and hassle of taking it back and forth to the service department!

Love this car!
Super smooth ride for a small SUV, exceptional design and quality, very easy maintenance. Plenty of room for 4 tall adults, knockout gas mileage, very sure-footed in all normal driving conditions (I've read reviews panning this vehicle for not being an "off-roader" - not sure why anyone would even review it in that category because that's not it's purpose)

Perfection on 4 wheels
NO matter which model you buy, buy the safety pack as well. Purchased a sport+ safety pack. The first 1200 km used 6.1 liters per 100km 50/50 city and freeway driving. Smooth and quiet drive. feels so safe to drive with great height and vision. Yes, the anti-collision works well. ( My son was driving)
