What's New for the 2022 Kia Seltos?
The Kia Seltos may only be in its second year of existence,
but it's already getting some major updates to enhance the driving
experience offered by this compact SUV. For starters, several driver
assistance features now become standard kit, making even the most basic
model safer on the road. You'll also get an up-sized 10.3-inch
infotainment display, automatic climate control, and remote start on all
but the base model Seltos LX. Finally, the Seltos Nightfall Edition is
exclusive to the 2022 model year, offering blacked out trim and unique
18-inch wheels.
Performance
KIA offers two four-cylinder engine choices for the KIA
Seltos. You can choose either a 2.0-liter engine (146 horsepower and 132
pound-feet of torque) that is mated to a variable automatic
transmission or a more powerful turbocharged 1.6-liter engine (175
horsepower and 195 pound-feet of torque) that is mated with a
seven-speed automatic transmission. All-wheel drive is available on the S
trim and standard on all other trims.
Interior
This is one of the largest vehicles in the subcompact SUV
category. Therefore, while it excels in tight spaces and on crowded
streets, the inside offers ample accommodations for passengers and their
things. For increased cargo capacity, the 60/40-split rear seats fold
down, expanding the space up to 63 cubic feet.

Infotainment and Technology
Every KIA Seltos comes with an 8-inch touchscreen
infotainment system that connects to Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. You
can upgrade the touchscreen to a 10.3-inch display. Enjoy charging your
devices wirelessly with the available charging pad, and enhance the
SUV's audio system with an available premium Bose audio
system.

Driver Assistance and Safety Features
The 2022 Kia Seltos now comes with a host of driver
assistance features as standard, including automatic emergency braking
and lane keep assist. The former works with forward collision warning
and pedestrian detection to help slow you down when you can't react
quickly enough to trouble ahead. And on the highways and two-lane roads,
lane-keep assist reads road markings and can gently nudge you back into
your lane should you begin to drift.
