Soul, Seltos, or Sportage: Where the Seltos Fits

Kia offers three small SUVs, and the Seltos sits in the middle. The Soul is the boxy, budget-friendly entry that stays front-wheel drive. The Seltos steps up with available all-wheel drive and a roomier, more SUV-like feel. The Sportage is the larger compact SUV with more space and hybrid options. Pick the Seltos when you want AWD and real cargo room without moving up to the Sportage’s size and price.

Which Seltos for AWD or the Turbo?

Want all-wheel drive on a budget

All-wheel drive is now available across most of the lineup, including lower trims, so you can get all-weather traction without paying for the top trim.

Want the sporty one

The SX brings the 190-horsepower turbo with standard all-wheel drive, the pick if you want the most power and the most equipment.

How the Seltos Compares
