It has an abundance of features for an inexpensive small family friendly SUV. It is among the most stylish crossovers.....2 tone looks great. While on the subject of style...love the dress Evie👍
I think this Kia Seltos looks great for 2024, and they knocked it out-of-the-park with the new color! Lots of laughs today, a funny banter bonus. Great time watching an excellent review! Thanks!
Thank you for clarifying that! We are waiting on a SX turbo model......when he said 91 octane required my heart about stopped! That would have been a deal breaker. Hope to pick ours up on about Oct 30th.
I like the style Kia and Hyundai have. They are comfortable rides but the problems they keep having prevent me from getting another Kia/Hyundai product. The issues with theft, another recall for fire risk on 23-24 Kia and Hyundai vehicles (you may think they resolved this years ago), transmission problems with the double clutch transmission, etc. We had a 2021 Kia Telluride that show transmission problems at 12k and have a 2020 Kia Soul that have been recalled 3 times (hopefully no more issues). It makes you think twice to buy the products from these brands (based on my experience).
My coworker has a 2021 Seltos, and the transmission failed at 15 K miles. Has been in the shop for 6 weeks already. He regrets trading his RAV 4 for this junk.

Great review,I will be in the market at the beginning of the year, this would be on my short list.... BUT the theft rates on Kia are so high that it would be hard to insure , the City of Chicago just filed a lawsuit against Kia/Hyundai other than that strong issue you guys sold it on this review 👌
The detail that made them easy to steal (no immobilizer) has been fixed in all Hyundai/Kia models as of 2022, however since a lot of 2021's, 2022's, and 2023's look the same, thieves are still trying to steal the newer ones with less success.
@@sirfriendzone1228yeah but do the thieves know that when they vandalize your car ,and the quote I got is inflated out of my budget maybe il look at Kia maybe 5 years from now-- they need to clean up there reputation right now but thanks for the insight 😏
I had issues insuring my 2021 Forte recently when I moved from California to Oregon but I just traded it in last weekend for the new Seltos and had no issues getting insurance.
Great review again, Muzio family! Love the , "Um, why are we talking about that?", which is single child-speak for, "Don't do anything that causes me to have a sibling!"
I have this suv in mars orange. I can honestly love it. I get around 35 miles to gal. Went to Ocean City MD from Charles Town Wv and back for $40. I have the style S. There is only two things I wish it had is automatic seats other than that great car..
I like how were at the point where, after over half a century of full sized spare tires being standard, a spare has been cut cornered to a "nice feature".
I like the Seltos, although I wish the MPG of the turbo model were better. What I like even more is your Adidas sneaker collection. So many to choose from! 🙂
PERSONAL OPINION!!!, so i live in Australia and here we are coherently given a lot of features as standard, this kia seltos is a really solid car, but again PERSONALLY id get the hyundai kona as its newer and subjectively has a better looking exterior and interior, and its fully loaded with specs like, heated seats (front and rear) ventilated seats, blind spot cameras and so much more, its also larger and a little more comfortable, but again this is my opinion, and even then the kia seltos is a really solid choice if anyone moves forwards with it.

I think wedging deserved an iguanna... Cute car. LIke the color, but it looks plain compared to Yvie's dress :-). This is a fantastic car, that is a bit like the North American version of a Golf. It's big enough for 95% of what we all use and saves money since it's not overkill. Also fairly easy on gas. As someone with a Sportage Hybrid, the $1200ish dollars that it would cost would be worth the extra 5-10 mpg over time.
Good question. We get our test cars from press fleet companies. They have cars that have been ordered by the PR departments from various car companies. Those PR teams typically want to show off the nicest version of the vehicles. And so we get fancy trims. On the occasions where lower trims are available, we typically request them.
Yep. My Ford Maverick AWD with the 2.0L ecoboost weighs like 500lbs more and has 55 more hp than the Seltos 1.6L turbo yet gets (EPA) 2 mpg better hwy. I've gotten like 33mpg hwy using 93 octane. Using 87 octane only drops that by about 1 mpg. That Seltos should get much better mpg.
I hate to say it (actually I don't), that's us right there getting all the BOGO deals, or stacking discount codes over already discounted items. Adidas running shoes for $24???? Yes please! And I don't even run :D Great review guys.... so errm...did you guys try that ummmm... Romance mood mode?
This has to be the most cringe worthy car review I have ever seen. When the guy mentioned a feature that made him feel like he was in a horror movie, I thought he was referring to her dress!

What? Are you stuck in 2011? Kia/hyundai were the first to attempt new EPA standards, and engine 1.0 and 2.0 had growing pains. 3.0 is best in class. Meanwhile, Chevy, Ford, Nissan, Toyota are recalling millions of vehicles this year because they are a decade behind.

I've got the 2024 Sx trim in green and Im so over the moon with it.
How are you liking (or disliking) it?
I’ve heard that recent model years had some pretty significant recalls. Kind of scared us from going with it.
The manual lists 91 RON is required which is equal to 87 pump octane in the US. Premium fuel is definitely not recommended/required.
Excellent remark. Thanks for the correction!

It's sad, because everyone was heralding their 'turn around' with their products, and now these issues are starting to creep up, again.

Isn't the theft issue only affect the cars that used a key? I'm pretty sure push button ones were not affected.
Shopping for my parents...really enjoyed your review. I plan to check out more of your videos. The 24 redesign looks much better than the 23. Thanks!
Your wife is absolutely adorable!! In addition to that, she also brings great insight from a mom’s perspective! Great video guys! 😁👍

Evie looked so natural behind the wheel and perfect for your environment AWD Turbo
Nice job to all of you!

I really like the size of vehicles like this and the Chevy Trailblazer. I have a 2021 Kia Soul, and so far, so good with that!
Physical buttons in this car is good. Why Kia change them in other SUV
I like how were at the point where, after over half a century of full sized spare tires being standard, a spare has been cut cornered to a "nice feature".
You need more subscribers Micah 😊
I like the Seltos, although I wish the MPG of the turbo model were better. What I like even more is your Adidas sneaker collection. So many to choose from! 🙂
Both engines get similar fuel economy, which is significantly below 30mpg.
I’ve always found it strange that we don’t get this car in the U.K. - I think it would sell well here.
This was a great review!
Too expensive for what it is. Uncompetitive MPG. Shameless dealer gouging above MSRP. Hard pass.
The delay in flooring it would be the Turbo spooling up.
Evie makes that dress look like it’s $2,300 not $23 ❤
Excellent review of a great car!😸
Lots of furbo lag.. And it's Smurf blue.😮
Forget the car, focus on the cute family and so sweet looking Evie…

Lovely dress! Nice color on the seltos too
$30k isn't inexpensive nowadays sir! Haha!
Loved the review as always!
I have been looking forward to this as a new seltos owner (3months) 😊
How is your Seltos holding up?
@@jazzyboy7784 without a hitch, mechanicly problem free, my only gripe is interio plastics are cheap so the clips can break easliy, especially the seat trim.
KIA Sportage will look really good in this exterior design
Didn’t Micah’s mom buy a Seltos a while ago? Wonder if she still has it and how it’s held up…
Also, should have said “Armrest grabs my wenis.”
She did and it's held up great. :)
No new car are affordable now day. New car and truck and SUV is enough to buy you a home And that is ridiculous
You didn't mention anything about cabin noise. Is the cabin quiet?
Wait...did Micah say "requires 91 octane?" what????
I did but I was totally wrong. It requires 91 RON which is 87 octane.
No worries@@MicahMuzio just wanted to make sure I was putting the correct fuel in my 2022 Seltos EX! LOL! Thanks for all your videos and making it a "Family" adventure.
Is that a transponder you have mounted on your windshield (and if it is, does the black dot pattern interfere with reception)? Thanks!
Yup! Our test car did have an HOV transponder mounted on the windshield. No, I don't believe the black dots affected it.
@@MicahMuzio Thanks! I just bought one (SX trim too) and I've been wondering if I could put my transponder there 🙂
Like the style!
Further back cup holder is not a benefit. I don't like having to contort backwards and is really good for hitting straws with your arm.
That’s for the passenger. Make them contort.
Overall interesting review, but I had to stop watching half-way through. A bit too much goofiness for me. I still gave it a LIKE though.
This or the CX-30??
I believe the Cx30 is being discontinued soon
@@RRLV434 any links to that?

91 Octane required, Really?? I thought regular 87 fuel was stated on the owners manual
Never fails it is always a top of the line with a turbo engine. Why don't you at times drive a base trim model. Just why not.
Good question. We get our test cars from press fleet companies. They have cars that have been ordered by the PR departments from various car companies. Those PR teams typically want to show off the nicest version of the vehicles. And so we get fancy trims. On the occasions where lower trims are available, we typically request them.

27 mpg highway, is awful.
Yep. My Ford Maverick AWD with the 2.0L ecoboost weighs like 500lbs more and has 55 more hp than the Seltos 1.6L turbo yet gets (EPA) 2 mpg better hwy. I've gotten like 33mpg hwy using 93 octane. Using 87 octane only drops that by about 1 mpg. That Seltos should get much better mpg.
Does the Kia seltos does not require 91 octane you are incorrect in that
True! Others already noted it. But you're right, I was mistaken.
KIA perfect for those with credit scores of 573.
Why for credit score of 573??? Have a very high credit score, and I like it and may buy one.
32,000 requires a 573? I’m at 802 and own one. Jealous much?
I’m just not convinced on Kias long term reliability.
Then buy a 3 cylinder that has to be turbo charged to get 140 HP, with an internal timing belt (wet), and no features. Good luck!!!!
I just wish the selots had a moon roof
They do. My EX AWD has one.
I hate to say it (actually I don't), that's us right there getting all the BOGO deals, or stacking discount codes over already discounted items. Adidas running shoes for $24???? Yes please! And I don't even run :D Great review guys.... so errm...did you guys try that ummmm... Romance mood mode?
Is “Seltos” named after a city or something?
No. The name was inspired by Greek mythology…Celtos, son of Hercules.
Great 👍
91 Octane Required with a car in this class?!? SMH.
It isn’t. The manual says 87.
This has to be the most cringe worthy car review I have ever seen. When the guy mentioned a feature that made him feel like he was in a horror movie, I thought he was referring to her dress!

Ooh. You’re sassy.

What is a Sauce’ pocket? Gross.
You've never eaten nuggets in your car?

Great car, but… those HORRIBLE engines! The terrible fuel economy, lowish power, notorious direct injection problems and a turbo? No way. No how.

Toyota is better.
Have you seen the Toyota recalls and engine failures? This isn’t 1991, new EPA regulations wrecked Toyota. Hopefully you didn’t purchase one.
