The 2024 Kia Seltos Sees Small Updates That Lead To Big Improvements | MotorWeek Road Test

When the Kia Seltos arrived for 2021, it not only had to stand out in an incredibly crowded small crossover segment, but find its place in Kia’s already extensive SUV lineup. It did quite well at that, but there’s always room for improvement. So, Kia hopes a thorough updating for ’24 will help the Seltos grab even more attention. #KiaSeltos #Kia #Seltos

My 24 Kia Seltos Isn't Sluggish At All It's Actually Pretty Tight Driving Only Thing I Don't Like Is That Sometimes When You Coming From A Complete Stop To A Start it'll Slurge with boosts of power not each time tho

Distinctively styled, but I will pass on the turbo though.

[@Snake-ms7sj]

Don't know why such lousy MPG hwy. Similar vehicles in the class with turbos can get over 30 mpg hwy. The 2024 Honda CR-V with a 1.5L turbo and AWD for example is EPA rated at 28 mpg city and 34 hwy.

love the baja blast color.

[@AndreLaplante-xu1le]

Looks good. I liked the original led Eyebrows. Distinctive. If I was a cross over fan I’d really like this. But, despite manufacturers claims, sedans and wagons still get more mpg.

An excellent, safe vehicle for a new driving teenager.

[@ouis-xv3vp]

No that’s absolutely not true as a technician the real safe and reliable vehicles for a teenager are always a Toyota or a Honda vehicle because they are 10 times better built when it comes to engines and transmissions and also they don’t have massive engine failure and poor build quality unlike the Kia and Hyundai garbage engines that are out on the road right now.

[@TJC450]

A teenager doesn’t need a new car.

[@eddieg6436]

@@TJC450 What should they get? An old car with faulty airbags, no ABS, or modern safety equipment?!? Uhhhh, yeah, no.

[@eddieg6436]

@@ouis-xv3vp I agree a Toyota, or Honda are superior……but also THOUSANDS more expensive, unless you buy used. 🤷🏼‍♂️🤔🤷🏼‍♂️

You guys should mention the warranties in the reviews. it blows away any other car manufactuer.

Here we go again. I really liked it until he said it had a damn turbo. That is a deal breaker and I would walk right off or the lot.Just something else to go wrong.

As a technician Kia and Hyundai are the Bic lighters of the automotive industry because they fall apart fast and have poor build quality in their garbage engines and transmissions MotorWeek knows this and every honest technician knows this.

[@mbox314]

I wish there long term tests were long enough to show this.

[@TheCarCrazyGuy]

But, are you an honest technician?

[@MaGiKRat420]

​@@TheCarCrazyGuyI don't trust he's a technician, period. Anyone can say anything online.

As a bullshit artist, I can say anything I want on the internet too, fake auto technician.

[@jimmy5634]

So …in other words, MotorWeek is hiding the truth from us. That’ll go a long way to enhancing their credibility. You’re full of it pal.
