🏆Do any of the potential downsides mentioned make you reconsider the Kia Seltos?🤔 🔴6 Reasons Why You Should Wait For 2025 Toyota RAV4 WATCH HERE 👉ua-cam.com/video/vOvrfkVYcB0/v-deo.html
The Seltos is a subcompact SUV, yet it has more passenger space, quality tech, a more upscale interior, and infinitely more style than the compact RAV4. I leased a 2021 SX turbo and it was a gem of a vehicle. I often miss it.
Let me tell you first hand and counter everything you've just said! Power train: For being a 2l it's surprisingly quick being only 1380kg. With fuel economy at 5.9l per 100km. Hybrid engine: Doesn't need one with the economy it achieves. However hybrid is available on the next generation. Fuel economy: Is actually fantastic with smaller engine but low vehicle weight. Interior: For the price this is incredible quality. Comfortable seats and ride, leather steering wheel, plenty of space. Stylish inside and out. Desirable features: If you want Desirable features you'll be paying the price for them it's not like kia has you in a choke hold. Base model still includes some fantastic features. Towing: Still has a decent towing capacity but who uses trailers these days. Overall the ride is comfortable and economic. I'm an engineer and I've got plenty of storage space around the spear wheel to keep the boot clean for my larger parts and tool box. All I can say is unless you've got the Seltos you'll never truly understand just how good it is for value and unfortunately I think that went straight passed this reviewers head...terrible review
Just got the wife a 2025 Seltos EX AWD. Plenty of power for her...tonns of tech...power seats and power lift gate. Average over 30 mpgs. Msrp was $29650. Got $1500 discount. Under $30000 out the door. Very pleased.
All true what you've said. But not everyone just has an extra 10 grand in the pocket, to buy the superior cars that you mention. If you're buying the Seltos base model you're doing it for the price point, not for the features and power train.
I've been showing around for cars and recently test drove a huyndai tuscon that I really like but the spacing between the gas and break pedals kind of aggravated the arthritis in my knees. My sister had a sportage that I didn't find bad to drive though so I started looking into the sportage and stumbled into the seltos. Which unlike the sportage I might be able to get a seltos new for the same cost as the used tuscon I was looking at... so its now kind of on my list honestly. Honestly I didn't think it's base trim was lacking too much. I think the only two things it was missing that I was interested in was the blind spot indicators and remote start. Though I've lived without remote start for a while. I do kind of want the blind spot indicator though... so maybe the Sportage is still my better option.
2021 KIA SELTOS SX TURBO w/7spd. DCT (transmission) has overheating tendencies in stop-n-go traffic.... meaning travel at your own risk. The good thing is the vehicle will tell you to pull over, and shut off the vehicle, and then sit for hours before trying again.
They got rid of the crap 7spd dct in the 24's and placed in a regular 8spd transmission & the sx model has a 1.6L turbo Smartstream engine that pumps out 195hp & 195 torque. 😊
I have Kia seltos HTK+ , my sister has Kia sonet htx+ and my dad has a tata punch , so I basically drive all these cars but I found Kia sonet and seltos both are basically almost the same driving experience but seltos has more space inside the cabin and it's little bit softer to drive than sonet. But Tata punch is also a good car when it comes to safety but engine noise is very annoying.but due to its compact size it's very easy to drive in cities.
Toyota RAV4 and Kia seltos between price differency how much ? Everybody want buy best car but conditions so and ppl choice this car. Of course it is not best but not bad too
Just bought a 2024 EX. For the most part I really like the car. My only complaint is the suspension. You feel every single bump in the road and I suspect I’m going to have issues with it in the future.

No
I own one and love it

I’ve owned my sx for a little over 3-years and I still love it. It’s been a great car.
I got a 2021 Kia Seltos SX AWD (1.6 Turbo) never had a problem with it and I get an average of 33 mpg.. and I use it to drive Uber fulltime
plus it's 10k less than honda crv or toyo rav4!
and you can go as uber x?
Just bought a 2024 Seltos SP4 and its gorgeous
How about the AC ?and fuel consumption

Thank you. About to purchase and read some reviews that had me second guessing my decision
Just got the wife a 2025 Seltos EX AWD. Plenty of power for her...tonns of tech...power seats and power lift gate. Average over 30 mpgs. Msrp was $29650. Got $1500 discount. Under $30000 out the door. Very pleased.
The only thing I'vd heard here is bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla. Seltos is a great. car.
😂 very right
He gave data to back up his claim, you essentially said, “take my word for it”😂😂😂😂. And 67 other dum dum’s liked your meaningless comment.
Love my 2024 Seltos SX.
I love my standard model S, I have a 2023. No problems at all, smooth drive and more room for me and my 2 kids compared to my old car I had. 😊

Right? Do they not understand why people are choosing Kia vehicles? There are not many affordable options for a nice ride out there.
the base honda or toyo get shit too. u have to pay 15k more to get all those fancy features. sick n tire of debt. if u rich u prob not looking at kia
We have a 2022 Seltos SX. WE LOVE IT! It's been reliable, roomier than it looks, and it's not bad looking either. The 1.6L turbo is a blast to drive!
Got 2023 Ex+,no problem at all,great drive❤
same here!!!
People buy a Kia to save money. Therefore most of these points aren't really that deal breaking.
I've got one. I love it.
I have this car and this car the best 👍
My wife has the 1.6 turbo and as soon as it hits boost it actually moves very well, way better than the 2.4 non turbo in her old sportage
Your video title is misleading , i adore my Seltos 2022 , the only point i agree is fuel economy which i dont care for the thrill i get.
I've been showing around for cars and recently test drove a huyndai tuscon that I really like but the spacing between the gas and break pedals kind of aggravated the arthritis in my knees.

Got EX+,great car,No problem at all

Got one and it's been perfect so far 2024 EX premium, would recommend.
I have a 2024 Kia Seltos S loving it so far

The interior is great i love it, And gas mileage is really not bad.
I love mine but it gets atrocious gas mileage for this size of vehicle
I understand the base model is quite OK if you get one that doesn't burst into flames. I'd prefer not to take the risk.
I love my kia seltos sx 2023
Horse poo, their 146 hp 4 cylinder engine producing 34 mpg hwy is better than my 2000 Ford Taurus wagon with a V6 producing 140 HP @ 27 mpg hwy.
Believe it or not many people don’t want hybrid drivetrains.
You’re not considering MSRP over mpg. Use more complicated math analytics to make better comparisons.
Hey Kia put the old bullet proof 2.4 liter 163hp motor with the new 8 speed tranny somehow in this car and that would make it zippy enough.
A sensible roomy affordable vehicle, say no more.
It's a good looking little suv but sure how reliable it is
Got it love it
The base model lacks features...well duh! That's the point of a base model. Buyers give up fancy features that they don't need for a lower price.
This just sounds like you work for someone afraid of comp. Do you work for BMW or someone else
Not be the right choice if you're a BAD DRIVER . and proper maintenance.
Hrv and crosstrek don’t offer a hybrid option. Do your research before you post. Very amateuristic.
it's 10k less than honda crv or toyo rav4! enought sd
Is to many UA-cam " expert" for cars😂. Seltos is great car for acceptable price.
Wait until you compare with other gas guzzling american suv's 😂
Just bought a 2024 EX. For the most part I really like the car. My only complaint is the suspension. You feel every single bump in the road and I suspect I’m going to have issues with it in the future.
SAME! I’m so surprised he didn’t mention it in the video. I can’t wait to afford to install cushier suspension on mine
The channels game is a given, bias asf😂
This is lot american crap
Best to stick with Japanese tech.
KIA sucks
