Kia released images of the Seltos for the Korean market which show off an updated exterior and a refreshed interior. Though we don’t have U.S. specifics yet, we’re confident that similar changes will be coming to North America in the near future. Kia has already provided details on the mostly carryover 2023 Seltos, so we think these updates will come to our shores for 2024.

The visual changes to the subcompact SUV, which shares a platform with the Hyundai Kona, look appealing to our eye. Pictured here in a two-tone exterior scheme with a light blue body and a black roof, the new look features reshaped daytime running lights and a slightly taller grille. The rear now has an attractive light bar spanning the width of the car, and the taillights are updated as well.

Interior improvements include a new set of display screens that look similar to what’s found in many other newer Kia models. A digital gauge cluster on the left sits in the same unit as the infotainment screen on the right, and we spotted what looks like a head-up display, too. The brown leather shown here may join the list of upholstery colors, and ambient lighting could be a new option as well. A rotary-style shifter replaces the traditional gear lever, but we’re not sure if that will make it to the U.S. version.

While we wait for the updated 2024 model to reach the U.S., the 2023 Seltos benefits from what Kia says is improved sound deadening and added safety features. Pricing for the 2023 Seltos starts at $24,185, and the 2024 may see a small increase when it arrives. Currently, the Seltos offers either a base naturally aspirated 2.0-liter inline-four with 146 hp or an optional turbocharged 1.6-liter inline-four with 175 horsepower. In our testing, the turbo Seltos achieved 30 mpg on our 75-mph highway fuel economy test. We aren’t sure if the 2024 model will see any powertrain changes, but Kia should release more information within the next few months.
