The Seltos’ most impressive aspect? Kia’s technology offerings.
“The tech showpiece — as in the Telluride — is a 10.25-inch touchscreen in the SX powered by Kia’s UVO multimedia and connectivity system that I like a lot,” Meier wrote. “It sits high on the dashboard with a good sightline that’s still close enough for easy touch. It has navigation, impressive graphics, simple menus, and essential physical knobs and shortcut buttons. It makes effective use of all that real estate with a well-designed split screen that allows easy content switching. And the SX pairs it with Bose premium audio.”
Not everything about the Seltos was as impressive, however, with Meier finding minor fault with the powertrain and also some aspects of interior quality.
One car another reviewer couldn’t find much of any fault with is the 2020 Porsche 911, which Brian Wong worries might be … too good? Wong evaluated a 911 Carrera S over the course of 900 miles and came away concerned that the 911’s driving experience is so good it’s almost mechanical.
