Pricing announced for the 2024 Kia Seltos now arriving in Canada

(Toronto, ON) May 18, 2023 – Today, Kia Canada announces pricing for its best-selling model, the 2024 Kia Seltos now arriving in dealerships across the country. The 2024 model is enhanced with design elements and improved technology offerings to further solidify its position in the subcompact segment. Pricing starts at $25,195 MSRP.

Introduced to Kia’s lineup in 2020, the Seltos quickly gained popularity in Canada, becoming the number one selling vehicle for the brand in 2021 and 2022 with 30,601 units delivered total. It is the right-sized subcompact SUV to be slotted in between the iconic Kia Soul and the spacious Kia Sportage, giving customers a well-equipped vehicle with available AWD, more standardized safety, convenient technology features and flexible cargo capacity to conquer all of life’s adventures for urban dwellers.

“The Kia Seltos is the number one selling nameplate in its segment so far in 2023,” says Elias El-Achhab, Chief Operating Officer at Kia Canada. “The enhancements coming to the 2024 model bring even more convenience, functionality and style to this game-changing vehicle in its segment.”

Starting with the exterior, new headlight and rear combination taillights elongate the Seltos with a ‘star-map’ signature look, another model that will be unmistakable on the road, like the Telluride and Sportage. The front and rear bumpers receive an updated design, housing a strong radiator grille, vertical fog lights and trunk lid garnish to complete the enhanced appearance. For those that are looking for a bold look, two brand new colours are optional: Valais Green and Pluton Blue.

The upgrades don’t stop there. A new X-Line trim offers exclusive design elements such as gunmetal coloured radiator/grille, front/rear skid plate, as well as glossy black applied to the side body molding and 18” black wheels. This unique package will also include black roof rails for that truly elevated rugged design.

Taking interior design cues from Kia’s recent vehicle launches like the EV6, all-new Niro Sorento and redesigned Sportage, the 2024 Seltos receives the extended dashboard configuration, with a 10.25-inch full LCD cluster and panoramic 10.25-inch multimedia display (available). New for 2024 also includes a refreshed centre console layout, modernized air vents, stylish garnish applied to the C/PAD and an optional Sofino Gentle Brown Leather interior.

For a truly enjoyable drive, the 1.6L turbo-GDI engine (SX and X-Line) receives a boost of accelerating power with 195 hp and 195 lb-ft of torque, that’s 20 more hp over the outgoing model. The transmission is also changed to an 8-speed automatic, allowing for a smoother application of the increased power. These two enhancements work more cohesively than ever before, delivering on a driving experience that will certainly inspire.

There is no shortage of technology and convenience features to heighten the ownership experience of the 2024 Seltos either. In addition to impressive available features such as head up display, Bose premium sound system and wireless charging, this next iteration of Seltos also receive available benefits including:

• Power tailgate

• Digital Key 2 Touch

• Driver Memory seat (2 settings)

Owners will gain even more Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS)i standard with the 2024 Seltos, including:

• Forward Collision Avoidance Assist (FCA): Helps avoid collisions with an oncoming vehicle while turning left at an intersection

• Lane Keep Assist (LKA): Detects lane markings and provides an audible and visual warning if the driver is drifting into another lane

• Lane Following Assist (LFA): Follows lane markings that the system detects and provides steering inputs to help maintain the vehicle in the center of the lane

• Blind Spot Collision Avoidance Assist (BCA): Under certain conditions, can detect vehicles traveling in the next lane. When a vehicle is detected in the blind spot, the vehicle brakes the outer wheel under certain conditions to help return the vehicle to its lane

• Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Avoidance Assist (RCCA): Helps detect most vehicles and other objects approaching cross traffic when in reverse. When approaching cross traffic is detected, the system alerts the driver and applies brakes if necessary

• Rear Occupant Alert (ROA) provides a warning to the driver to check the rear seat before exiting the vehicle.

• Safe Exist Assist (SEA)ii: Provides a warning when a vehicle is approaching from the rear-side while someone is exiting the vehicle
