PERFORMANCE

Above all else, your vehicle must be ready to take you wherever you need to go. Engineering that combines strength, ability, and efficiency will ensure that each drive lives up to your expectations, and the Kia Seltos offers it all.

Handling

Kia engineers have spent countless hours perfecting the mechanical design that makes the Kia Seltos fun to drive. There are two main configurations: a 2.0L and a turbocharged 1.6L motor. Both are paired with equally impressive systems that help you make the most of every moment behind the wheel.

Engine Design	2.0L 4-cylinder	Turbocharged 1.6L 4-cylinder
Horsepower	146 HP	195 HP
Torque	132 lb-ft	195 lb-ft
Transmission	Intelligent Variable Transmission	8-Speed Automatic

All Kia Seltos models also come standard with Drive Mode Select. Choose from Normal, Sport, and Eco to suit the occasion.

Efficiency

One thing that every driver can appreciate is improved fuel economy. A vehicle that gets more mileage from each drop of fuel will help save time and money at the pump. You’ll also get to keep your road trip going with fewer pit stops.

The Kia Seltos offers a Front-Wheel Drive system (FWD) and the Dynamax™ All-Wheel Drive (AWD) configuration. FWD models achieve an EPA-estimated MPG of 28 city/34 highway, while AWD trims earn an EPA-estimated MPG of 27 city/31 highway.^* No matter which layout your Kia Seltos has, it will get you to your destination efficiently.
