Taking the 'Opposites Unite' design language that blends sophistication and SUV practicality, the Seltos has more of a visual impact inside and out. The redesigned interior boasts ergonomics, quality and smooth style with the new centre stack and integrated curved display. Power-wise, you can find the tried and trusted 1.5 CRDi turbodiesel engine and two new petrol powertrains with a new transmission option. The refinements have been spread to reposition the Seltos line up, too. With all this in mind, how much can you expect to pay monthly?
How much will it cost you?
Here on AutoTrader, we use a standard finance model for car repayments. If you know what you qualify for, then you can skip right ahead and try out the AutoTrader Finance Calculator tool to see your potential repayments for your KIA Seltos. To calculate the monthly repayments, though, we'll use a typical finance agreement with a 72-month term and a 10% deposit. You can have a balloon or residual payment, but we won't use that in this calculation. We'll use an interest rate of prime plus 2% for an interest rate of 13.75%. Your individual credit profile determines the interest rate, so you'll have to check what interest rate you qualify for. After our calculation, your payment will look like this for the available variants:
