Kia’s turbocharges its compact crossover with the flagship Seltos 1.4 Turbo SX

After introducing the new Seltos in entry-level LX and mid-range EX trims last November, Kia Philippines has also brought in the top-of-the-line SX variant of their latest global crossover. 

“We encourage and invite our customers to visit their nearest Kia dealership to see, feel, and experience the new 2024 Kia Seltos,” said Brian Buendia, Chief Operating Officer of Kia Philippines.

What sets the 2024 Kia Seltos SX apart is its all-new powertrain—a new 1.4-liter four-cylinder turbocharged Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) engine developing 140ps and 242Nm of torque from as low as 1,500 rpm for excellent responsiveness and fuel efficiency.

It’s mated to a new 7-speed automatic dual-clutch transmission with selectable driving modes that enables dynamic performance in varying road conditions.

Measuring 4,385 mm long, 1,800 mm wide, and 1,635 mm high, the Seltos SX fits the daily needs of the busy urbanite. And with a wheelbase of 2,630 mm, it has the essential interior space for a full complement of five passengers and their accompanying cargo.

A new, more prominent grille design with added accents, revised front and rear bumpers with updated turn signals, LED fog lamps, functional roof rails, satin-finish belt trims, chrome trims, and connected star-map signature LED taillamps distinguish the new Kia Seltos SX. New 17-inch two-tone alloy wheels, finished in semi-gloss black, also sets the new Seltos SX apart.

Inside, the Seltos SX also brings a host of unique class-leading details and features demanded by the modern crossover market. An expansive 10.25-inch instrument panel integrates with a 10.25-inch infotainment display, which sports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity. It also has a unique Sound Mood Lamp.

Additional comfort and convenience features in the new Seltos SX include a new panoramic sunroof, dual-zone automatic air conditioning, front seat cooling, electronic parking brakes, ambient lighting, keyless entry, and wireless mobile charging.

A full complement of safety features highlights the new Seltos SX’s flagship position in the nameplate’s lineup. Six airbags, Smart Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go ability, Lane Keeping Assist, Lane Following Assist, Forward Collision Avoidance Assist, High Beam Assist and Parking Distance Warning are exclusive to the new Seltos SX.

The new Kia Seltos SX comes in two unique colors – Pluton Blue and Snow White Pearl with Black Roof.

Priced at Php 1,688,000, the Kia Seltos SX also comes with a 5-year or 160,000-kilometer Warranty and 24/7 Roadside Assistance for Kia customers’ peace of mind.

“Now that all three variants of the 2024 Kia Seltos are here, our customers can discover which new specifications fit their needs, requirements, and budget. The 2024 Kia Seltos SX brings a refined presence, ease and convenience, enhanced comfort, and extensive safety features ideal for families and individuals who want a vehicle that lets them get the best out of life,” Buendia added. 

AC Motors, the exclusive distributor of Kia vehicles and services in the Philippines, announces the availability of the 2024 Kia Seltos SX at its dealerships nationwide.

After introducing the new Kia Seltos in entry-level LX and mid-range EX trims last November 30, 2023, Kia Philippines also began accepting inquiries about the top-of-the-line SX variant of the latest Global crossover from Kia. Car buyers anxiously awaited the arrival of the country’s first batch of Kia Seltos SX units.

Now available at showrooms for previewing and release, the 2024 Kia Seltos SX is set to deliver heightened features and excellent value to young progressive crossover buyers.
