It's easy to say that the Kia Seltos is one of the most stylish crossovers in the market today.

It wears 17-inch wheels, a wide black front grille with chrome details, and an upswept window line that leads to a rear spoiler. In select trims, chrome exterior accents, roof rails, and two-tone paint finishes beautify what is otherwise an average crossover. 

But the Seltos isn't all about style but function, too, as evidenced by its cabin. Nifty interior features and a safety kit are found in the three trim levels of the Seltos (LX, EX, and SX), which go for P1.153 to P1.505 million. 

Interior amenities

An eight-inch touchscreen infotainment and four speakers with two tweeter are standard across the Seltos range. The entertainment aspect of the system comes from the Bluetooth and phone mirroring capabilities, while the information it provides is the image from the reversing camera. 

The seats in the Seltos LX are clad in fabric, while the EX and SX cars use a combination of leatherette and fabric. To keep the cabin cool, the LX and EX are fitted with a manual aircon, the SX a single-zone climate control. 

Safety kit

To cushion occupants in an impact, the Seltos EX and LX are equipped with airbags up front. The SX adds side curtain airbags to both the front and rear are of the cabin. Four three-point seatbelts are standard across all trim levels. 

Other safety features unique to the Seltos SX are electronic stability control, rear parking distance warning, downhill brake control, and hill-start assist control.
