2026 Kia Seltos
Be Unstoppable In The Kia Seltos
For 2026, the Kia Seltos is now offered in both FWD and AWD on most trims, including the newly introduced LX FWD. The Kia Seltos lineup includes four trim levels: LX, S, EX, and SX, each progressively adding more features and refinement. This provides buyers with greater flexibility in choosing their preferred drivetrain configuration. The Kia Seltos offers two capable powertrains: a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine delivering 147 horsepower and an available 1.6-liter turbocharged engine producing 190 horsepower, exclusively on the SX AWD trim. Kia backs the Kia Seltos with its industry-leading 10-year/100,000-mile limited powertrain warranty and five-year/60,000-mile limited basic warranty, demonstrating confidence in the vehicle's long-term durability.
The Far From Ordinary Kia Seltos Design
The Kia Seltos bold styling continues with a new gloss black 17-inch wheel available as part of the EX Sunroof Package. It retains its rugged yet sophisticated look with LED signature lighting and standard 18-inch alloy wheels on SX models. Measuring in length at 172.6 inches, 70.9 inches in width, and 63.6 inches in height without roof rails (64.2 inches with rails), the Kia Seltos rides on a 103.5-inch wheelbase. Ground clearance measures 7.3 inches, with approach and departure angles of 28.0 and 26.8 degrees respectively. This provides capability for light off-road adventures and clearing obstacles in challenging weather conditions. The front fascia features Kia's signature tiger nose grille that creates a commanding road presence. These compact proportions make the Kia Seltos ideal for urban environments while maintaining an SUV-like stance. Perfect for buyers seeking versatility without the bulk of larger crossovers.
Not A Bad Seat In The Kia Seltos
A refined Kia Seltos interior now features available dual 10.25-inch panoramic displays, upgraded connectivity, and comfort amenities such as heated front seats and a 10-way power driver's seat adds a premium touch. Interior dimensions include 41.4 inches of front legroom and 38.0 inches in the rear, with 40.0 inches of headroom up front and 38.4 inches in the second row without a sunroof. Cargo capacity reaches 62.8 cubic feet with the rear seats folded and 26.6 cubic feet behind the second row with the dual-level cargo floor in the low position. This provides ample space for weekend trips or shopping excursions. The Kia Seltos SX trim includes a premium Bose audio system with sound-connected mood lighting. This creates an immersive entertainment experience that elevates the compact SUV beyond basic transportation. Available materials include cloth, synthetic leather, and premium upholstery options depending on trim level.
