This is Kia Stonic Vs Kia Seltos comparison for 2021. Another worthy comparison as the top range Stonic is more expensive than the entry level Seltos. They are different in size and looks but we are sure there will be some cross shopping.
Kia Stonic Vs Kia Seltos exterior comparison: There is some similarity between the two Kia’s but not enough to tell that they are made by the same company. Regardless both seem like last generation models in terms of automotive styling trends – meaning they look nice and familiar. However both are a let down in terms of what Kia is capable of doing, which is disappointing.
Kia Stonic Vs Kia Seltos interior comparison: There is really nothing notable about the interior design of both. The Sonic is clearly the cheap interior and the Seltos the next step up. While the Sletos interior matches the competition the Sonic is under done for the price.
Kia Stonic Vs Kia Seltos engine and technology comparison: Essenitally the KIa Seltos gets more safety tech and more powerful engines.
Kia Stonic Vs Kia Seltos drive report : N/A
The conclusion and winner of the Kia Stonic Vs Kia Seltos comparison is the Seltos. It is a conditional win as it applies only to the entry level Kia Seltos due to pricing. That said the Seltos model range is ultimately more expensive that competes with arguably much nicer models like the CX-5, CR-V and even the newest X-Trail or Subaru XV and Forester to consider.
