The 2022 Kia Seltos has a lot to offer. When we say a lot, we mean a lot of interior space, a lot of performance, and a heck of a lot of fun to be had behind the wheel. Here are three reasons to consider the Kia Seltos as your next small sport utility vehicle.
For its versatility
With over 700 litres of total cargo space, the 2022 Kia Seltos is one of the largest SUVs in its class and the most versatile. Unlike many of its competitors that give up interior space in the name of agility and lower fuel consumption, the Seltos delivers a true SUV experience with plenty of space and a high driving position its owners will enjoy while also being easy to drive in the city, easy to park, and fuel-efficient.
For its performance
The 2022 Kia Seltos is powered out of the gate by a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine that delivers 146 horsepower and 132 pound-feet of torque. This engine is paired to a IVT (Intelligent Variable Transmission) gearbox and averages just 8.8 litres per 100 kilometres in the city and 7.6 litres per 100 kilometres on the highway. Imagine that! Those numbers are with all-wheel drive, by the way.
You can also opt for an even more powerful SX version which brings a 1.6-litre turbo engine to the party. This engine delivers an impressive 175 horsepower along with 195 pound-feet of torque. It’s even paired with a dual-clutch automatic like a true performance vehicle!
For its price
The Kia Seltos is one of the better values in the segment. It starts at just over $25,000 and gives you a lot of features that include Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Blind Spot Monitoring standard, rear cross traffic alert and heated front seats! You also get a range of other versions that are sure to have the features you are looking for. Give us a call to test drive the new 2022 Kia Seltos for yourself!
