The subcompact SUV segment is red hot. Over the last four years, names like Hyundai Kona, Chevrolet Trailblazer, Toyota C-HR, Ford EcoSport, Nissan Kicks and Mazda CX-30 have emerged or been resurrected in the U.S. The 2021 Kia Seltos joins that list, but it falls on the larger side of the pack—at 172 inches long, it’s closer to the size of the larger Sportage than the smaller Soul, its two siblings.

The Kia Seltos arrives to the U.S. market from South Korea, and it differentiates itself from the pack with its attractive looks and roomy interior. We had a chance to test a Seltos SX with the 1.6-liter turbo and were pleased with the way it drove and handled around the track.

It’s the kind of bargaining we do every day: Should I buy the store brand or pay a few dollars more for the name brand? Most of the time, it’s the same thing, but sometimes it’s worth it when you just like the name brand better. We do the same thing when we’re car shopping: buy the car that fits our spreadsheet of criteria, or the one that speaks to us? Sometimes, though, you get both in the same package, like when you’re cross-shopping the 2020 Kia Soul and 2020 Nissan Kicks.
