The 2025 Kia Seltos offers a spectrum of trim levels, each with a unique exterior design that combines rugged elegance with practicality. Its sharp lines and aggressive stance immediately signal a robust yet refined vehicle, while advanced design elements set it apart. The **LX** trim presents a clean, no-nonsense approach with durable cladding, a tiger-nose grille, and sleek headlights that convey its adventurous spirit. Designed for drivers who value simplicity with confidence, this trim offers all the essentials without compromising on the Seltos’ bold aesthetic. With the **S** trim, the Seltos elevates its design through the use of two-tone roof options, adding an urban edge that makes a striking visual statement. The sculpted side profile is accentuated by distinctive 17-inch alloy wheels, and the rear spoiler gives the vehicle a sportier, more dynamic look. Moving up to the **EX** trim, the Seltos starts to incorporate more luxurious touches. The addition of LED headlights and fog lights improves visibility while enhancing its upscale appearance. Chrome accents along the grille and door handles subtly hint at the premium materials used throughout this trim. For those seeking a sportier edge, the **Nightfall Edition** introduces darkened elements like black alloy wheels and gloss-black roof rails. The unique front fascia design and exclusive trim-specific badging give this version of the Seltos a stealthy, confident demeanor. At the top of the line is the **SX** trim, a fusion of performance and sophistication. LED headlights and taillights come standard, along with 18-inch alloy wheels that provide a more aggressive stance. This trim’s aerodynamic lines and panoramic sunroof contribute to the overall sleekness of the exterior, signaling premium craftsmanship and an attention to detail that stands out in any environment.

The 2025 Kia Seltos brings two robust engine options that deliver power and efficiency in equal measure, catering to drivers with different performance needs. Whether you’re looking for dependable daily driving or a turbocharged boost, the Seltos has you covered. The standard engine for most trims is a **2.0L inline-4** that generates **146 horsepower** and **132 lb-ft of torque**. This engine, paired with an **Intelligent Variable Transmission (IVT)**, offers smooth and efficient power delivery, making it ideal for city commuting and longer drives on highways. Its responsive nature ensures that you have the power you need without sacrificing fuel economy, providing a balanced driving experience. For drivers craving more excitement, the **1.6L turbocharged inline-4** delivers **195 horsepower** and **195 lb-ft of torque**. Available in the SX and Nightfall Edition trims, this turbocharged engine pairs with a **7-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT)** for quick, precise shifts that add to the driving enjoyment. The additional horsepower translates into sharper acceleration and a more engaging ride, ideal for those who want an extra kick when taking on winding roads or open stretches of highway. Both engine options prioritize Kia’s commitment to efficiency, while providing enough versatility to meet the demands of any journey. The Seltos delivers on its promise of power without overextending, ensuring a confident drive every time.

When it comes to performance, the 2025 Kia Seltos offers a dynamic driving experience tailored to a wide variety of road conditions. Its engineering is focused on delivering a smooth, controlled ride whether you're handling city traffic or venturing onto more challenging terrains. One of the standout features is the available **All-Wheel Drive (AWD)** system with **Torque Vectoring Control**. This system enhances traction and stability, providing greater confidence in unpredictable weather conditions like rain or snow. Whether you’re navigating slick roads or uneven surfaces, the Seltos adjusts power distribution to the wheels that need it most, ensuring surefooted control. The suspension system strikes a balance between comfort and agility. The independent front suspension paired with a rear torsion beam setup ensures that the Seltos remains composed, even when the road gets bumpy. For added driving dynamics, the turbocharged models come equipped with a sport-tuned suspension, delivering sharper cornering and a more responsive feel. With **Drive Mode Select**, the Seltos adapts to your driving preferences. Choose from Normal, Eco, or Sport modes to adjust the vehicle’s throttle response, steering weight, and transmission shifts, ensuring that the Seltos is as versatile as your driving demands. Whether you’re looking for fuel efficiency on long hauls or a more spirited drive on curvy roads, the Seltos can transform its driving characteristics at the touch of a button.

Inside the 2025 Kia Seltos, you’ll find a cabin that offers a balance of comfort, modern technology, and refined materials. It’s designed to make every trip—whether it’s your daily commute or an extended road trip—a more enjoyable experience. With seating for up to five passengers, the Seltos offers exceptional space and versatility. The rear seats feature a **60/40 split-folding configuration**, expanding the cargo space from **26.6 cubic feet** to a generous **62.8 cubic feet** when needed. This makes the Seltos ideal for carrying everything from groceries to gear for outdoor adventures. Premium materials are evident throughout the cabin, with higher trims featuring **SynTex upholstery** and **leather-wrapped steering wheels**. Soft-touch surfaces enhance the sense of luxury, while thoughtful touches like **heated front seats** ensure you stay comfortable no matter the season. Tech-savvy drivers will appreciate the **10.25-inch touchscreen display** available in higher trims, featuring **navigation**, **Apple CarPlay®**, and **Android Auto™** integration. With these systems, connecting your smartphone is seamless, giving you access to music, apps, and directions at your fingertips. An available **Bose® premium audio system** transforms the cabin into a concert hall, delivering clear, rich sound that elevates every journey. Kia also ensures that practicality doesn’t take a backseat to style. The Seltos offers multiple USB charging ports, a **wireless charging pad**, and an array of storage options, including deep door pockets and a center console that’s perfect for keeping small items secure and accessible.

Kia has equipped the 2025 Seltos with an array of advanced safety features designed to protect both driver and passengers. Standard across most trims is the **Kia Drive Wise** suite of driver assistance technologies, which enhances awareness and helps prevent potential accidents. One of the key systems is **Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist** with **Pedestrian Detection**, which uses cameras and radar to detect vehicles or pedestrians in your path and automatically applies the brakes if a collision seems imminent. **Lane Keeping Assist** ensures you stay centered within your lane, gently correcting the steering if you drift out of line without signaling. Blind spots are less of a concern with **Blind-Spot Collision Warning**, which alerts you if another vehicle is in your blind spot, making lane changes safer and more predictable. Additionally, **Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist** helps you reverse with confidence by warning you of approaching vehicles when backing out of tight parking spaces. For added convenience on the highway, the available **Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go** allows the Seltos to maintain a set distance from the vehicle ahead, automatically adjusting your speed to match traffic conditions. This feature, paired with **Highway Driving Assist**, makes long-distance driving less stressful by helping the vehicle stay centered in its lane while monitoring surrounding traffic. The Seltos is also designed to offer peace of mind in the event of a collision, with its reinforced frame and strategically placed airbags providing a protective barrier for all occupants. Additionally, **High Beam Assist** ensures that your headlights automatically adjust to the appropriate brightness based on oncoming traffic, improving nighttime visibility without blinding other drivers.
