KIA Seltos Hybrid 2025

KIA Seltos Hybrid 2025 Price in New Zealand is NZD 42,295 (US$24,590)

Rumors circulating within Korea suggest that Kia intends to unveil a hybrid iteration of the Seltos by 2025, as per a report from the Kia Economic Daily. While specifics are scant, this move indicates a strategic shift for the automaker.

If these speculations materialize, it’s likely Kia will opt for an all-new model rather than a mere facelift, as previously indicated by Kia executives. One plausible scenario involves borrowing the hybrid powertrain from the latest Hyundai Kona, which currently isn’t available in the US market.

Recent sales data underscores a growing appetite for hybrid vehicles in the American market, with Kia witnessing a notable 51% surge in hybrid car sales, and Hyundai experiencing a 41% increase in plug-in hybrid sales. Against this backdrop, introducing a hybrid crossover like the Seltos seems strategically sound, especially considering the vehicle’s rising popularity.

This move mirrors a broader trend in the automotive industry. Just days ago, reports surfaced indicating that Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) is shifting focus from EVs to hybrids due to subdued demand for electric vehicles. General Motors (GM) is also adopting a similar strategy, acknowledging the widespread appeal of hybrid vehicles.

The accuracy of these reports remains to be seen, along with details regarding the powertrain specifications. However, the most probable scenario involves adapting the Hyundai Kona Hybrid for the Seltos, leveraging its 1.6-liter GDi gasoline engine and electric motor combination, which delivers 139 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque. While acceleration may not be exhilarating, with 0-62 mph taking over 11 seconds, potential tweaks could enhance performance before integrating the system into the Seltos.
