CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2021 Kia Seltos EX Premium; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Before you buy the 2021 Kia Seltos EX Premium, see the figures and the checks worth doing.

Recalls and complaints

Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.

The numbers in plain words

The powertrain to know here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

The EPA rates it at 7.5 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 23 litres. That works out to about $11.63 per 100 km at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,150 a year for 15,000 miles.

Size and space

The higher seat of a compact SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic.

Is it right for your trip?

It suits winter trips and weekends with more gear than people. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.

Drive it on your own roads

Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Drive the Seltos on your commute before you commit to it.

The cost of driving it

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$2,150 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $11.63 in fuel.

Year and trim

Compare the EX Premium with the other trims of the same year before you decide. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.

A note on Java

If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Java. Java is about 1,639 km from Toronto, outside our delivery area.
