  • One of Australia's BEST SELLING family SUVs has just received a MAJOR facelift, but is the 2023 Kia Seltos worth it?
    The newly facelifted 2023 Kia Seltos brings with it some impressive new tech, engine modifications a new transmission and interior - but at an extra cost... So is this still the king of all small family SUVs? Let's talk about that!

    Why hasn't Kia included the 360 degree camera available in some markets? That omission and the allegedly painful speed reminder beeps kill this for me. A shame.

    Great job man!
    I have to be honest, I’d never heard of this channel and only stumbled across it in my pursuit of Seltos videos as I’ve just ordered one myself.
    Video was refreshing somehow, so many reviewers out there these days and so full of themselves and you were just you, I guess!
    Like watching a video if someone had asked me to make a video of a car I’d driven. Love your work man ❤

    I've just picked up my new Seltos Sport+ and I must say, the speed warning is absolutely INFURIATING. As it is camera based (sees the road signs), it believes the 40km school zones are permanent speed limits and will beep at you incessantly on weekends and after school hours if you do over 40km in a school zone. The fact that this audible warning is on by default, and the only way to turn it off is through navigating laboriously through the menu on the info system to turn it off EVERY TIME YOU DRIVE, makes this just the most ridiculously annoying feature. If I'd known about the school zone thing, I would not have bought this car. Now considering selling and going to a Honda HRV. At least Mitsubishi got it right by not beeping, but simply flashing the speed limit on the dash if you go over. KIA NEED TO CHANGE THIS FEATURE.

    KIA 2023 Model is a great Urban City Car. The 2.0-liter engine front wheel drive is awesome. I like KIA Seltos new design much better than Hyundai KONA. KONA is smaller and has far too much plastic outside of the car.

      @@86anpaj As I understand it the hybrids all come with the dial and the ICE variant, uses the traditional shifter. Personally I'm not married to the shifter and actually find the dial more esthetic and convenient. But that's just a matter of taste.

    we have a DCT 1.6 turbo and there is nothing at all wrong with it ...so many people seem not to understand how to use one and criticize it ...its not as refined on down changes as a Golf GTI ( ive had 2 of them ) but it is still a very good transmission, works fine in auto mode and also in manual mode.
