Exterior
A bold, rugged silhouette blends with smooth contours to make the 2027 Seltos look highly sophisticated. It feels seamless thanks to its available auto-extending door handles that sit flush with the body panel. They stretch out once you approach the SUV and retract as soon as you step inside. The standard front fascia is defined by a pair of LED headlamps flanking a black front grille that sports a striking slotted design, all framed by a set of tall LED daytime running lights. At the four corners of the vehicle sit standard 16-in. alloy wheels, but available 19-in. variants with a gloss black finish offer a more aggressive stance. Available heated side mirrors and roof rails help expand the model’s all-weather readiness and cargo versatility, while attractive paint options such as Frost Blue, Iceberg Green, and Magma Red Matte1 will help it turn heads when you pull into Gallery Park.
Performance
Powered by a standard 2.0L 4-cylinder engine, the 2027 Kia Seltos generates up to 147 horsepower and 132 lb.-ft. of torque. This peppy performance is backed by a 28/33/30 MPG city/hwy/combined2 fuel economy rating in the SUV’s standard FWD configuration. If you desire extra traction to handle Glenview’s snowy winters with confidence, upgrade to the AWD3 setup that’s optional on the LX, S, and EX trims and standard on the X-Line editions. As an added bonus, AWD3 models come equipped with an independent, multi-link rear suspension assembly that provides a smoother, more comfortable ride quality. Drivers seeking the most muscle for their commutes down Edens Expressway will appreciate the available 1.6L turbocharged 4-cylinder powertrain, which produces up to 190 horsepower and 195 lb.-ft. of torque.
Technology
The 2027 Seltos is filled with advanced tech features, including a standard 12.3-in. touchscreen display4 that’s centered on its dashboard. With standard wireless Apple CarPlay®5 and Android Auto™6 compatibility, you’ll be able to seamlessly sync your smartphone to the SUV and catch up on your favorite podcasts while you’re headed to work. The available 8-speaker Harman Kardon®7 Premium Audio system helps provide an immersive listening experience, while the standard steering-wheel-mounted infotainment controls will make it easy to sort through playlists and field phone calls without fiddling with your mobile device or reaching over to the center display. Plus, available over-the-air update compatibility8 means the car’s tech can conveniently take advantage of the latest bug fixes and software functions.
