The upcoming 2024 Kia Seltos is said to undergo refresh updates, especially for the exterior and interior areas. After all, this vehicle has a very nice combo of stuff: fun to drive and maneuver ability, roomy cabin, and good looking design. Within Kia’s lineup, the Seltos is slotted between the bigger Sportage and smaller Soul. But then again, it isn’t really a subcompact vehicle as it offers more cargo compared to Nissan Kicks and Hyundai Kona.
The Updated Plan
The refreshed project is meant to improve the stylish aspect of Seltos, making it more desirable and attractive. For the interior, expect better technologies and more features too. The Seltos for Korean market has been improved. Hopefully, the same thing will also happen to North American Seltos.
Design and Layout
From the look of it, the new 2024 Kia Seltos comes with updated lighting elements as well as new grille which has been refreshed and restyled. The changes have been able to boost the exterior appeal, especially since they are accompanied by new designs for the wheel and rear light bar connecting the taillamps.
For the interior cabin, expect improved plush and comfort. Seltos has been known as this convenient ride, but it would be elevated and made better with the new one. Updated infotainment system and panel should be expected, coming with 2 big screens and a seemingly new rotary controller.
Trims and Price
The Seltos will likely be offered in 4 trims, starting from the LX with a tag price of $25,000. Afterwards, the S trim with a tag of $26,000 will follow. The next higher trim level would be the EX with a tag of $28,000, and then the highest trim level would be the SX with a tag of $30,000.
Kia wants to maintain Seltos’ affordability. That’s why they still offer the ride within very affordable price range despite the updated styles.
Interior Comfort
Space is one of Seltos’ biggest forte. The cabin is roomy and wide, providing enough space for people as well as cargo. Not to mention that the materials all throughout the cabin are refined and well chosen. You can enjoy ambient lighting as the standard starting from SX trim level, but as you pick the higher trim, you can have it pulse along the music – which has been used by Soul SUV.
Cargo area is also nice and accommodating. Without having to fold the rear seats, you can enjoy the spacious area. If you fold the seats, you can even enjoy more. Also expect more technologies, features, and better connectivity options to be available for this model.
