If you're looking for a stylish SUV that's great for city driving, look to the 2023 Kia Seltos. This compact SUV is the ideal size for people on the go and it comes with a long list of premium standard features to make every drive enjoyable.

The 2023 Kia Seltos is available at five trim levels: LX, S, EX, Nightfall Edition, and SX.

Exterior

One of the most unique things about the Kia Seltos is its available two-tone roof. Not many other Kia models offer this, but you can opt for a black or white roof on the S, Nightfall Edition, and SX trims. These roofs can be paired with colors like Dark Ocean Blue, Starbright Yellow, and Clear White. If you want the most exclusive visual details, the Seltos Nightfall Edition is the way to go. This special model comes with unique accents like 18-inch alloy wheels, a black grille, black roof rails, and black door garnish.

Performance

The 2023 Seltos offers two engines across its lineup. The standard option is a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that works with an Intelligent Variable Transmission to deliver 146 horsepower and 132 lb-ft of torque. That amounts to fuel economy coming in at a max of 29 mpg in the city and 35 mpg on the highway on the Seltos S FWD model.¹

For more exhilaration behind the wheel, consider the Nightfall Edition or SX. These two Seltos models have a turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine under the hood that's paired with a seven-speed Dual Clutch Transmission. This powertrain delivers up to 175 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque and a max fuel economy of 25 mpg in the city and 30 mpg on the highway.¹

Interior

The upscale interior of the new Kia Seltos is replete with comfortable and convenient features. The ergonomic design makes for a relaxing drive, even in stop-and-go traffic or long road trips. Remote start, which is standard on the S model and above, makes it easy to get where you need to go quickly. In the back, the dual level cargo floor adjusts and provides additional storage for a variety of items. In total, you'll have up to 62.8 cubic feet of cargo room to utilize behind the front seats. Available highlights that you can opt for across the Seltos lineup include a 10-way driver's seat with lumbar support, heated front seats, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel.

Technology

There's a reason the Kia Seltos has been recognized by WardsAuto for its interior. The technology inside the cabin is easy to use and gives off a luxury feel every time you use it. The standard 8-inch touch-screen display works seamlessly with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ to give you access to your favorite compatible apps.

When you choose the 2023 Seltos EX and above, you'll get a larger 10.25-inch touch-screen display with the innovative Kia Connect infotainment system. This lets you remotely access details about your vehicle and do things like lock/unlock the doors and start the engine. These models also come with SiriusXM® satellite radio and a wireless phone charger. If you want the ultimate music experience, a Bose® premium audio system with eight speaker and a sound-connected mood lamp is standard on the Seltos SX.

Safety

The advanced safety systems in the Kia Seltos have your back. Right from the start, you'll have helpful features like Forward Collision Avoidance-Assist (with Pedestrian Detection), Lane Following Assist, Lane Keeping Assist, Lane Departure Warning, Driver Attention Warning, and Rear Occupant Alert working to keep you safe.

As you move throughout the Seltos lineup, you can utilize the state-of-the-art technology from systems like Safe Exit Warning, Blind-Spot Collision Avoidance-Assist, Highway Driving Assist, Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go, and more.
