About the 2027 Kia Seltos
The Seltos is Kia's subcompact SUV, and 2027 brings an all-new second generation: longer, wider and on a longer wheelbase than the car it replaces. Five trims run from $24,990 to $32,790 before the $1,495 destination charge. Four of them use a 147-horsepower 2.0-liter four through an Intelligent Variable Transmission; the X-Line SX gets a 190-horsepower 1.6-liter turbo and an eight-speed automatic. A 1.6-liter hybrid with a six-speed dual-clutch joins the range late in the fourth quarter, the first hybrid in the nameplate's history. Outten Kia sells and services all of them in Hamburg, minutes from I-78 exit 30 on Route 61.
The extra wheelbase shows up where buyers use it: 39.0 inches of rear legroom, which Kia calls best in class, and 27.8 cubic feet of cargo behind the rear seat rising to 64.2 with it folded. Dual 12.3-inch displays are standard on every trim, as is a driver-assistance suite that includes Forward Collision Avoidance Assist with Junction Turning. The X-Line SX adds 19-inch wheels, 8.1 inches of ground clearance and, with its Prestige Package, the Surround View and Blind-spot View Monitors.
Choosing all-wheel drive changes the rear suspension as well as the traction, which is the detail most cross-shopping misses. Fuel economy runs from 30 mpg combined in the front-drive 2.0-liter down to 26 in the turbo, with EPA total range between 396 and 343 miles. For buyers in Reading, Allentown and across Berks County weighing the Seltos against the rest of the Kia SUV range, it sits below the Sportage on price and above the Niro on cargo space.
