Used Kia Seltos Muncie, IN
Small SUV Size with Room for Real Life
A used Kia Seltos makes a lot of sense for drivers who want SUV practicality without a big SUV price tag. At Kia of Muncie, we help shoppers in Muncie, IN, find pre-owned Seltos models that fit their routine, budget, and driving style.
- Pre-owned Seltos models share a roomy cargo area, a raised ride height, and available all-wheel drive.
- Our comparison chart lays out each engine, transmission, and fuel economy rating side by side.
- Simple financing and an online trade-in tool keep the buying process quick and low-stress.
The Seltos built a following fast because it packs a lot into a tidy footprint. It parks easily, sits up high enough to see traffic ahead, and still swallows a week of groceries or a weekend of gear. Buying one pre-owned lets you skip the steepest part of the depreciation curve while keeping the features that made it popular in the first place.
What Makes the Seltos a Smart Pre-Owned Pick
Cargo space is where the Seltos really surprises people. First-generation models offer 26.6 cubic feet behind the second row and 62.8 cubic feet with the rear seats folded, measured with the dual-level cargo floor in its low position. That's enough room for a stroller, sports bags, or a flat-pack bookshelf without playing Tetris in the parking lot.
Ground clearance sits at 7.2 to 7.3 inches across those models, depending on the year, which helps on snowy side streets and gravel driveways. Pair that with available all-wheel drive, and you've got a small SUV that handles an Indiana winter with confidence. Seating for five, smartphone integration, and Kia's driver-assistance features round things out, with more equipment available on higher trims.
Comparing Seltos Engines and Fuel Economy
Two engines have powered the Seltos, and knowing the difference helps you pick the right one. The 2.0-liter four-cylinder makes 146 horsepower and pairs with Kia's Intelligent Variable Transmission. It's the efficiency choice, earning up to 31 mpg combined with front-wheel drive. The 1.6-liter turbo adds noticeably more punch for highway merging and comes with all-wheel drive. Earlier turbo models use a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, while later versions switched to an 8-speed automatic.
| Powertrain | Output | Transmission | EPA Combined MPG |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2.0L Four-Cylinder, FWD | 146 hp, 132 lb-ft | Intelligent Variable Transmission | 31 mpg |
| 2.0L Four-Cylinder, AWD | 146 hp, 132 lb-ft | Intelligent Variable Transmission | 29 mpg |
| 1.6L Turbo, AWD (earlier models) | 175 hp, 195 lb-ft | 7-Speed Dual-Clutch | 27 mpg |
| 1.6L Turbo, AWD (later models) | 195 hp, 195 lb-ft | 8-Speed Automatic | 25 to 26 mpg |
| Cargo Space (all versions) | 26.6 cu ft behind 2nd row | 62.8 cu ft maximum | 7.2 to 7.3 in ground clearance |
