Kia has held an international premiere of its all-new Seltos mini-crossover SUV in South Korea. Let us take a quick look at the highlights.
The car will be available in three variants: 1.6-liter gas turbo (177 hp / 132 kW), 2.0-liter naturally aspirated (149 hp / 111 kW), and 1.6-liter diesel turbo (134 hp / 100 kW). You can choose between two drives (FWD and AWD) and three transmission types (6G auto, 7G DCT, and CVT).
The equipment list is extraordinarily extensive for a mini car. There are light alloy wheels ranging from 16 to 18 inches in diameter, a multimedia system with a 10.25-inch screen, a reversing camera, a HUD display, an all-around view camera system, drive mode selection, a wireless phone charger, dynamic ambient lighting, a parking assist, ventilated seats, adaptive cruise control, and more.
The SUV is 4,370 mm (14.34 ft.) long with a wheelbase spanning 2,630 mm (8.63 ft.). The trunk volume amounts to 498 liters (17.6 cubic feet).
International sales launch is expected in the third quarter of 2019, so stay tuned.
