kia seltos 0-100

The Kia Seltos isn’t a drag-strip bruiser, but in Australia it holds its own without breaking a sweat.

Expect 0–100 km/h in around 10.0–11.0 s (2.0L FWD CVT, 110 kW/180 Nm) and roughly 8.0–8.5 s (1.6‑turbo AWD 8‑speed auto, 146 kW/265 Nm), depending on conditions.

Real-world tests vary with fuel, tyres and gradients, so your stopwatch may disagree by a whisker.

If you like brisk overtakes, the turbo’s your mate; if serenity and economy are your vibe, the 2.0 is perfectly civilised.

Key specs: 2.0L FWD CVT or 1.6T AWD 8‑speed auto; Power/Torque: 110 kW/180 Nm or 146 kW/265 Nm. Consult official documentation for exact figures.
