Kia Seltos
The Kia Seltos is a subcompact SUV with only a few minor revisions for the 2023 model year. A hybrid variant has yet to show up despite some rumours suggesting it would. Base models feature a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine rated at 146 horsepower. FWD is standard, but AWD is available. Customers can also choose a turbocharged 1.6-litre engine that serves up 175 horsepower via a dual-clutch transmission and standard AWD.
