With an impressive level of equipment, a sexy style, an exceptionally comfortable driving experience and loads of amenities, it is not surprising that the Kia Seltos is so popular, with a price that leaves the competition far behind. So, if you are looking for a subcompact SUV that will really give you an excellent price-quality ratio, then the 2024 Kia Seltos will not only meet your demands and needs, it will surely surpass them.
What’s new for the 2024 Seltos
Among all of the novelties for 2024, a new Kia Seltos AWD X-Line trim is added, which relies on remarkable off-road capabilities, thanks to components such as:
- Protection plates at the front and rear;
- Gloss black wheels, underbody and roof rails.
It is, however, smaller than the Kia Sorento X-Line, which includes enough room for 6- passengers, a more powerful engine and a 3rd row of seats, which is also better suited to a larger family.
Buyers will also have the choice between two new body colors –Valais Green and Pluton Blue-, bringing the number of colors up to nine, which include:
- Snow White Pearl;
- Fusion Black;
- Steel Grey;
- Gravity Grey;
- Neptune Blue;
- Lunar Orange;
- Deep Ocean Blue.
