    Recalls and complaints

    NHTSA has 378 owner complaints on file, mostly about engine, power train and electrical system. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed.

    The numbers in plain words

    Under the hood: the 2.0L 4-cylinder and front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

    Plan on about 23 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 7.5 L/100 km. For 1,000 km, budget about $116.30 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,150 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

    Space, size and seats

    Being a compact SUV, it handles luggage, strollers and sports gear well.

    Good uses for the Seltos

    It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

    Drive it on your own roads

    Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Rent the Seltos first, and buy only if it fits your life. Drive the Seltos on your commute before you commit to it.

    The cost of driving it

    A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $11.63 in fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

    Narrowing it down

    Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
