What's wrong again?

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.

I’ve had my Seltos EX for 10 months and 9000 trouble free miles.I like the many safety features And Apple CarPlay. I keep the rear seats down to provide a comfortable space in the cargo area for my spoiled wiener dog. The 2.0L 146 HP has performed surprisingly well on long trips from AZ to Louisiana. So far my dog and I like this little SUV.

Loving my first “Big Girl” purchase

I was in the process of preparing to buy my first car and had been doing some research on smaller SUV’s. I constantly found myself coming back to the Seltos. Decided to finally go and test drive one and instantly fell in love. The amount of room and space is amazing! Plenty of leg room in the front and back, and lots of head space in the back seats. The truck was the perfect size for my good clubs, plus extra things I might need. I am LOVING the touchscreen, my Seltos comes with an 8” screen and is plenty big enough. I ended up going with the AWD S trim for the extra safety features and they come in handy every time I drive. I especially enjoy the lane-assist and the fact that it lets me know when the car in front of me starts to move when I’m stopped. I’ve some reviews about a lot of noise in the cabin when driving on freeways; that is not the case for me. Was set on getting the yellow body/black roof exterior color, but left with the Mars Orange instead, it looks sooo much better in person. If you’re on the fence about purchasing a Seltos, I’d give it 2 thumbs up. I’ve only had mine for 2 weeks and I don’t have enough good things to say about it!
