Used 2024 Kia Seltos for Sale nearPenticton, BC

How much does the 2024 Kia Seltos cost?

Prices have softened 12.75% compared to this time last year, making it a favourable time to shop this model year.

There are 680 listings available, which suggests you should have a reasonable amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2024 Kia Seltos a good car?

Yes — the 2024 Kia Seltos earns a 4.8/5 user rating and a 7.5/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Cost effectiveness and Safety.

Owners consistently praise its spacious cabin, comfort, handling, and useful feature content, and they also like the stylish design. For shoppers who want a small crossover with everyday practicality, the Seltos fits that brief well, especially because it offers plenty of room and a straightforward cabin with easy-to-use technology.

The main trade-offs are that the base engine feels underpowered and the optional turbo engine can suffer from low-speed turbo-lag. Even so, the Seltos remains a strong fit if you value space, standard equipment, and a simple, functional layout over outright performance. With 29.1% of listings marked as good or great deals, there is still decent market opportunity if you shop carefully.

Is the 2024 Kia Seltos reliable?

Owners rate it 4.8/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback points to a vehicle that feels dependable in daily use, with praise centred on comfort, features, and the kind of practicality you can count on over time. The expert assessment also supports that impression by highlighting the Seltos as a well-rounded small crossover with useful space and easy-to-use technology.

Kia also positions the Seltos as a value-focused, mainstream small SUV, which helps reinforce the sense that it is built for steady everyday ownership rather than drama. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is less about a single glaring flaw and more about choosing the right trim and powertrain for your needs.

What should I look for when buying a used 2024 Kia Seltos?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The LX is the most basic version, but it still brings 17-inch alloy wheels, cloth upholstery, fog lights, heated front seats and side mirrors, manually adjustable front seats, two USB ports, air conditioning, remote keyless entry, Bluetooth connectivity, and an 8-inch touchscreen. The EX adds solar glass, a sunroof, LED daytime running lights, keyless entry with push-button start, combination cloth-and-synthetic leather upholstery, and single-zone automatic climate control. The EX Premium adds a fully digital instrument cluster, electrochromatic rearview mirror, rear cargo cover, and wireless device charging. The SX adds 18-inch alloy wheels, rain-sensing wipers, a leather-wrapped flat-bottomed steering wheel, a Bose premium stereo system, and Kia’s digital key. The X-Line adds 18-inch alloy wheels with gloss black finish, a unique dark gunmetal grille design, black sport design roof rails, and other subtle styling tweaks.
• Powertrain: The base 2.0-litre four-cylinder makes 146 horsepower and 132 lb-ft of torque and uses Kia’s IVT. The LX comes standard with front-wheel drive, with optional all-wheel drive, and AWD is also available on the EX. From EX Premium, AWD is standard. The SX and X-Line use a turbocharged 1.6-litre four-cylinder with 195 horsepower and 195 pound-feet of torque, paired with a new eight-speed automatic transmission and standard AWD.
• Safety package: Standard driver assistance features include forward collision avoidance assist with pedestrian and cyclist detection, lane keep assist and lane-departure warning, lane-follow assist, automatic high beams, driver attention warning, blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert, as well as Safe Exit Warning. EX Premium adds smart adaptive cruise control that can stop and go with traffic and uses navigation to predict curves. The SX adds traffic sign recognition, highway driving assist, a junction-turning function to the forward collision warning, and drive-away warning.
• Infotainment: The base setup uses an 8-inch touchscreen and a 4.2-inch digital instrument screen, while upper trims upgrade to a 10.25-inch fully digital instrument panel and a 10.25-inch touchscreen. Both tiers include Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The system keeps physical volume and tuning dials, plus hard climate buttons, which makes it easier to use.
• Fuel efficiency: The base 2.0-litre engine with FWD returns 8.3 L/100 km city, 6.8 highway, and 7.6 combined. With AWD, it returns 8.8 L/100 km city, 7.5 highway, and 8.2 combined. The 1.6-litre turbo-four with AWD returns 9.4 city, 8.7 highway, and 9.1 combined.

Which 2024 Kia Seltos trim should I buy?

The 2024 Kia Seltos is offered in 5 trim levels: LX, EX, EX Premium, SX, and X-Line.

Here's the short version:

• LX: This is the value-focused starting point, and it already gives you a lot of useful equipment, including heated front seats, an 8-inch touchscreen, and standard AWD on the base trim level in the broader model description. It is the trim to consider if you want the lowest entry point and can live without the extra convenience and tech upgrades.
• EX: This is the first step up if you want a more polished daily driver, thanks to the sunroof, push-button start, and upgraded upholstery. It is the trim that makes the Seltos feel more complete without jumping too far up the price ladder.
• EX Premium: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds the fully digital instrument cluster, wireless charging, and smart adaptive cruise control. If you want the strongest mix of comfort, tech, and safety equipment, this is the one to target.
• SX: This is the trim to choose if you want the most upscale cabin and the turbocharged powertrain, plus the Bose audio system and digital key. It suits you best if you want the most feature-rich Seltos and are willing to pay for it.
• X-Line: This is the style-led top trim in Canada, with unique exterior details and the turbocharged AWD setup. It makes sense if you want the most distinctive look and the highest trim position.

The safety package is strongest once you move past the EX, since EX Premium adds smart adaptive cruise control and the SX adds traffic sign recognition and highway driving assist.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2024 Kia Seltos?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop with some leverage if you are patient and compare listings carefully.

• Deal availability: 29.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 680 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 12.75% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $25,888 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2024 Kia Seltos's resale value?

The current average of $26,192 CAD sits slightly below last year's $30,018 CAD.

That price movement suggests the market has cooled, which can be helpful if you are buying now but less favourable if you plan to sell soon. A softer market often means future resale values may stay under pressure unless demand strengthens again. Even so, the Seltos's broad appeal, practical packaging, and strong owner satisfaction should help support buyer interest over time.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.8/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2024 Kia Seltos safe?

The 2024 Kia Seltos earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

Standard safety equipment includes forward collision avoidance assist with pedestrian and cyclist detection, lane keep assist and lane-departure warning, lane-follow assist, automatic high beams, driver attention warning, blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert, plus Safe Exit Warning. That gives you a strong baseline even on lower trims.

If you move up to EX Premium, you get smart adaptive cruise control that can stop and go with traffic and uses navigation to predict curves. The SX adds traffic sign recognition, highway driving assist, a junction-turning function for forward collision warning, and drive-away warning. The main safety gap is that some of the more advanced driver-assistance features are reserved for higher trims.

Should I buy a 2024 Kia Seltos or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2024 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2024 if:

• 29.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 12.75% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.8/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It brings a meaningful refresh with updated tech and styling while keeping the Seltos's practical, spacious character intact.

The bottom line: If you want the refreshed Seltos with updated technology, strong safety content, and a roomy cabin, the 2024 is the one to focus on. If your priority is simply the lowest possible purchase price, a nearby model year may be worth comparing, but the 2024 offers a good balance of value, equipment, and market availability.
