Meet the All-New 2027 Kia Seltos: Small SUV, Big Upgrade
The Kia Seltos you know? It just got a major glow-up.
Making its debut at the New York Auto Show, the all-new 2027 Kia Seltos is stepping into its next generation with more space, more tech, and a whole lot more personality. If you’ve been waiting for a compact SUV that doesn’t feel… well, basic — this might be it.
Bigger, Bolder, Better
The 2027 Seltos is slightly larger than before, which means more room for passengers, more cargo space, and an overall more comfortable ride. It also picks up design cues from the Telluride, giving it a more confident, refined look with details like flush door handles and bold lighting accents.
Tech That Feels (Almost) Luxury
Inside is where things really level up. The Seltos now offers available nearly 30 inches of combined digital displays, plus wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ across the lineup.
There’s even an available AI assistant (yes, really — just say “Hey, Kia…”) along with features like:
- Available panoramic sunroof
- 360° Surround View Monitor
- Over-the-air updates
A First for Seltos: Hybrid Power
For the first time ever, the Seltos is getting a hybrid option — and not just any hybrid. It will offer available electric AWD (e-AWD), blending efficiency with capability in a way we haven’t seen from this model before.
You’ll still have the option of the standard 2.0L engine or the turbocharged 1.6L (estimated 190 horsepower) if you want a little extra punch.
When Can You Get One?
The all-new 2027 Kia Seltos is expected to arrive later in 2026 (Q3). Pricing and full details are still on the way, but if you’re even a little interested, now’s the time to keep it on your radar.
