TrueDelta Reviews the Available Features of the 2021 Kia Seltos

2021 Kia Seltos Available Features: Cons
YearComment
The Kia Seltos has a high level of standard and available content compared to other small crossovers. Even the least expensive trim level includes a nearly full array of advanced driving aids as standard equipment. But while you can get both front-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive, the former is offered on only one trim level, the one-up-from-the-bottom S. Perhaps this was done to limit intramural competiton with the Kia Soul, on which AWD isn't offered. Similarly, while the 1.6T engine is offered, it is only offered on the top trim level. On the related Kona, Hyundai offers this strong (if poorly tuned) powertrain on three trim levels. Adaptive cruise control, nav, a 400-watt Bose audio system, and LED headlights are similarly available--but only on the relatively pricey SX. Other features you'll find on larger crossovers, dual-zone climate control for example, aren't offered on the Seltos. But they're not offered on most direct competitors, either. see full Kia Seltos review
