2025 Kia Seltos price and specs

The 2025 Kia Seltos remains largely unchanged for another year, but there’s been a minor price increase across the board.

Kia Australia calls the price rise a “small economic increase,” ranging from $70 for front-wheel drive variants to $90 for all-wheel drive grades.

However, this only applies to the list price, with nationwide drive-away prices unchanged year-on-year.

While there are no changes to the standard equipment of the Kia Seltos, the carmaker says it’ll soon roll out a software update which will make it easier for drivers to turn off the Intelligent Speed Limit Assist (ISLA).

In the first half of 2024, Kia sold 4537 example of the Seltos in Australia. While that’s behind the top-selling MG ZS, GWM Haval Jolion, Mazda CX-30 and Mitsubishi ASX, it did outsell the Volkswagen T-Roc (4096 sales), Chery Omoda 5 (2933 sales) and Suzuki Vitara (1326 sales).

Pricing

The 2025 Kia Seltos has experienced a price increase.

There’s a $70 increase for the 2WD variants and $90 for the AWD versions, but no change to the drive-away pricing available nationwide.

For a more accurate idea of pricing, you can configure and get pricing for the Kia Seltos in your own specifications on the official Kia website.

Drivetrains

The Seltos is available with two drivetrains, a 2.0-litre naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine and a 1.6-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine.

The 1.6-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine delivers outputs of 146kW and 265Nm.

All 2.0-litre models are front-wheel drive, while all 1.6-litre models are all-wheel drive.
