The all new 2021 Kia Seltos is AWD in all but one trim level. How does this inexpensive and well equipped vehicle do off-road? Watch to find out!
Engine Adventures strives to explore and test the AWD and 4WD systems of all crossovers, SUVs, and pickup trucks. To do this we test vehicles in real world environments in a way that allows viewers to cross shop and explore any vehicle they may be interested in learning about.
Kia recalls 147,000 Seltos and Soul vehicles for fire risks, new engines needed.
weak car
Treat the DCT like a manual, dont load on the clutches like its a torque converter, thats why it gave you a warning. If you drive with a tiny bit of momentum and try not to crawl below 2-3mph its gonna be a tank.
Which Kia Seltos model is in this video?
Great review
4:58 I was ready to buy this car like, today until I saw that. That put me off completely because it's supposed to be a new car.
I'll just check for a second hand Jeep.
If they had an off road package that gave it better tires, rims and a lift kit. That color is nauseating. It would look way better in Undercover Green.
Worst offroder It is performing like a front wheel drive car
Good video, been looking for an off-road video for the Seltos. I love mine, plans for a small lift, wheels and tires in the future.
I'm thinking about getting this car but course of doing anything as close to this w vid. But have u done any snow , ice wet road testing?
It needs a rear diff
You should do this exact same test with different vehicles
Apparently its a soft roader at best.
Just make it a nice family car forget off road it's not built for that purpose it's a lifestyle car not an off roader
Great video. After this video I seriously doubt the offroad capabilities of the Kia Seltos.
Can you do Suburu Forester off road test?
Pretty good video. Ill be checking out your others.
Hope indian version become this capable
Dude…bravo. Great stuff.
Not a 4wd vehicle! AWD is for slick road conditions, not off road.
some1 put it on 3 rollers and see if 1 wheel will move it
Is this Dax Shepard narrating the video?
Is this the SX trim with DCT? Transmission heating was perhaps because of the DCT?
Have you faced any issues while using in the DCT in city conditions? — slow moving traffic, uphill/downhill drives?
Wrong tires to do any of this!
Duffer driver
Dude your channel is awesome and adventurous
Why do you testers never put offroad tires on these AWD cars? Realistically someone intended to go offroad wil swap the tires.
Nicely explained. I really liked Seltos for normal road trips with some off roading as well. Thanks for sharing.
