As you research the 2025 Kia Seltos trim levels, you may wonder how the 2025 Kia Seltos LX specs compare to the 2025 Kia Seltos SX specs. While every Kia Seltos trim comes equipped with standard all-wheel drive, specs like the 2025 Kia Seltos horsepower and 2025 Kia Seltos mpg ratings vary depending on which configuration you choose. That’s because the Kia LX, S, and EX provide our Carson neighbors with 2.0L Atkinson engine, whereas the X-Line and SX trims come with a 1.6L Turbo Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) engine. Learn more about the 2025 Kia Seltos specs with Kia of Cerritos, and then apply for financing and test-drive the Seltos trims at our Cerritos showroom!

2025 Kia Seltos Horsepower & MPG Ratings

As we mentioned, the 2025 Kia Seltos LX specs differ from the SX specs.
