2027 Kia Seltos For Sale

The 2027 Kia Seltos is not a refresh. It is a complete redesign of one of Kia's most popular small SUVs, and what Kia has delivered is a vehicle that competes directly with models a full segment above it. Larger dimensions, Telluride-inspired styling, a first-ever hybrid powertrain, and a standard dual 12.3-inch screen setup make this a genuinely different vehicle from the one that preceded it. If you have been cross-shopping the 2027 Kia Seltos for sale in the Chester County area, this page will give you what you actually need to make a confident decision before you visit us on Westtown Road.

Three Powertrains in One Small SUV Lineup, a Segment First

No other small SUV in the Seltos segment offers three distinct powertrain choices. This matters because the right engine for a daily commuter in Exton is genuinely different from the right engine for someone who wants trail-ready AWD capability or maximum fuel economy.

Powertrain	Output	Available On
2.0L Naturally Aspirated	147 hp	LX, S, EX, X-Line S
1.6L Turbocharged	190 hp	X-Line SX only
Seltos HEV (coming later this year)	1.6L hybrid, available e-AWD	TBD

2.0-Liter Naturally Aspirated in LX, S, EX, and X-Line S: Reliable Daily Power for Most Buyers

The 2.0-liter four-cylinder naturally aspirated engine produces 147 horsepower and pairs with Kia's Intelligent Variable Transmission. It is available with front-wheel drive or an available Multi-Mode AWD system and comes standard on the LX, S, EX, and X-Line S trims, with LX pricing starting at $24,990 MSRP. This engine suits buyers whose primary priorities are smooth, predictable daily driving, reasonable fuel efficiency, and a lower entry price.

1.6-Liter Turbocharged Exclusively on X-Line SX at $32,790: What 190 Horsepower and Multi-Mode AWD Actually Deliver

The turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine develops 190 horsepower and routes power through an 8-speed automatic transmission with manual control mode. It is available exclusively on the X-Line SX trim, starting at $32,790 MSRP, and comes standard with Kia's advanced Multi-Mode AWD system. What separates this powertrain from the base engine is how that power combines with the standard 19-inch all-black alloy wheels, 8.1 inches of ground clearance, and the X-Line's terrain-ready tuning.

Seltos HEV Coming Later This Year With Kia's First-Ever Electric AWD on a Hybrid SUV

The 2027 Seltos HEV pairs a 1.6-liter four-cylinder hybrid engine with a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission. What makes this powertrain notable is Kia's available e-AWD system, the first electric all-wheel drive setup ever offered on a Kia hybrid SUV. Official EPA fuel economy figures have not yet been released as of this writing; Kia has confirmed the HEV is expected to go on sale later in 2026. Our team at Kia of West Chester is happy to notify you the moment the HEV arrives in inventory.

How the 2027 Seltos Stacks Up Against Its Closest Competitors

The 2027 Seltos most directly competes with the Honda HR-V and the Hyundai Venue. On passenger volume, the Seltos wins outright: its best-in-class 103.5 cubic feet is a verifiable advantage according to Kia's April 2026 competitive benchmarking against 2026 and 2027 Entry CUVs.

Where the Seltos genuinely separates itself from both is the combination of standard dual 12.3-inch screens with over-the-air update capability at the LX price point, available Netflix and Disney+ streaming on select trims, and the incoming HEV with e-AWD, which no other vehicle in this class currently offers.

Trim Levels and Configurations Available at Kia of West Chester

The 2027 Seltos is offered in five distinct trim levels. Understanding what each one adds is the clearest path to choosing the right configuration for your budget and how you use the vehicle.

LX

The LX is the entry point into the 2027 Seltos lineup at $24,990 MSRP and pairs the 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine with the standard dual 12.3-inch screen setup, wireless CarPlay and Android Auto, the full standard ADAS suite, and 16-inch alloy wheels. It does not feel stripped down in the way that many base trims do. The LX is available with optional AWD, worth considering if you want wet-weather or light off-road confidence without upgrading trims.

S

The S trim builds on the LX with added convenience and comfort features while remaining on the 2.0-liter naturally aspirated powertrain. It targets buyers who want the base engine's efficiency and reliability but want to step up the comfort appointments inside the cabin. Full feature-delta details should be confirmed at the time of purchase, since final configuration specs can vary.

EX

The EX brings the 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine to its most complete expression before the X-Line variants, with pricing up to $30,090 MSRP. At this level, buyers gain additional premium interior and technology appointments, including the available 5-inch climate display panel that completes the three-screen panoramic layout.

X-Line S

The X-Line S introduces the Seltos's trail-capable identity at a price point that still uses the 2.0-liter engine. The exterior gains the distinctive X-Line bumpers, Piano Black trim, dark gunmetal accents, and larger 18-inch alloy wheels. The interior steps up with the X-Line's exclusive monotone black SynTex upholstery and Telluride-style mesh headrests.

X-Line SX

The X-Line SX is the performance and technology flagship of the 2027 Seltos lineup at $32,790 MSRP, and it is the only trim available with the turbocharged 1.6-liter engine producing 190 horsepower. It comes standard with Multi-Mode AWD, 19-inch all-black alloy wheels, and the 8.1-inch ground clearance configuration. The available X-Line Prestige Package adds features, including the driver Relaxation Seat.

Trim	Starting MSRP
LX	$24,990
S	Above LX
EX	Up to $30,090
X-Line S	Below X-Line SX
X-Line SX	$32,790
