Loving this Seltos

Went to buy a newer Kia Soul but ended up Trading my 2016 Kia Soul Plus... loved my Soul but was wanting AWD. Have only owned it a couple weeks but am enjoying it very much. Smooth and peppy I bought the SX Turbo. The dealership was Kia of Columbia was great my sales rep was patient and attentive/ Hilario. The deal was mind blowing. Made it a very easy and enjoyable experience.

JUST HAVE HAD IT A WEEK. SO FAR SO GOOD!

WE ARE HAPPY WITH THE CAR. WE TEST DROVE THE SPORTAGE AND LIKE THE SELTOS BETTER. THE SELTOS WAS SPORTIER. THE ONLY THING I QUESTION WAS IT DID NOT PROVIDE FLOOR MATS.

Great vehicle

Love my new Seltos. Lots of safety features, great fuel economy, and value. A car with these features you would expect to pay a lot more money for.

Traded in Sportage SX for this one

This car is more comfortable and has advanced tech compared to Sportage, while giving almost as much room. In SX turbo, the engine is quiet, responsive and ready to go. Gravity Gray is a beautiful colour. UVO is practicaL AND USEFUL, AND i LOVE THE hud.

holy smoke best subcompact CUV

Purchased 2021 Seltos S and cross-shopped with HR-V and Crosstrek as I needed AWD. most in this category only comes with FWD so many were not considered. feature by feature, Seltos win hands down. amazing amount of space inside and everything is in the "right" place and it drives very smooth and quiet for the price point. the 2.0 engine is exceptionally quiet when first started and both the engine and IVT is a perfect combo with very good 30 MPG in mixed driving. we also own 2010 Soul ! and 2019 Niro Touring and the reliabilities on both have been incredible only needing general maintenances.

Its one of the better cars I have owned

I did not purchase a top line or even a middle line model. I have a just above base model and I am happy. Comfortable ride and the interior is easy to navigate. Road noise is very noticeable and having a conversation with a passenger can be a bit difficult. Radio is easy and right in a perfect spot.

So far I love my Kia Seltos

I love the SUV only thing is that I wish the dealership had the fully loaded one in stock. The one I have is great but I would have went with the fully loaded one if I had the options and did not felt rushed.

New Seltos

Looking to downsize to a smaller SUV. I compared the Seltos to other smaller SUV's. The Seltos is a great looking vehicle. The interior is so comfortable and the cargo space is just right. It handles great in the snow, rides smooth, and has a great pick up.

The Best Car I’ve Ever Owned!!!

Fell head over hills when I first saw this suv and she hasn’t disappointed me at all! I get so many compliments about her and me in her!! Lol that’s why I had to go find her else we’re not matter I was going to get a replacement of the one I bought in November and I got an even better one like my first pick. I’m a very Happy Customer with Peak Kia of Colorado Springs.
