Subcompact SUVs provide the best of both worlds. They're small enough to easily maneuver through tight spots in Bryan, TX, while also offering more cargo space than a car. The new Kia Seltos has a small turning radius and a surprisingly spacious cargo hold. Other small crossovers like the new Honda HR-V and the new Nissan Kicks have their positive qualities, but they don't hold a candle to the Seltos' overall quality. Sterling Kia put together the following comparisons to help you see why.
New Kia Seltos vs. New Honda HR-V
Fuel Economy
Gas prices are always fluctuating, but College Station drivers will make fewer stops for fuel with the new Kia Seltos. When properly equipped, it earns 28 mpg in the city and 34 mpg on the highway.
The new Honda HR-V is not as efficient. The best gas mileage it returns is 26 mpg in the city and 32 mpg on the highway with the right configuration.
Cargo Space
Whether you enjoy camping in the woods or shopping at West Hill Mall in Huntsville, you'll want an SUV with a large cargo hold to put all your stuff in. The new Kia Seltos has 26.6 cubic feet of cargo space behind its back seats, and 62.8 cubic feet of room with the rear seats folded down.
The new Honda HR-V only has 24.4 cubic feet of room behind the rear seats and 55.1 cubic feet of space with the back seats folded down.
New Kia Seltos vs. New Nissan Kicks
Acceleration
You'll have ample get-up-and-go for getting around Bryan, TX in the new Kia Seltos. It comes standard with a 146-horsepower four-cylinder engine, but a turbocharged 195-horsepower motor is available for zestier acceleration.
The new Nissan Kicks has one available engine – a 122-horsepower four-cylinder motor. Its powertrain makes the Kicks slow to pass on the highway, and it has trouble merging into traffic.
Ride and Handling
The new Kia Seltos has well-weighted steering, strong brakes, and a taut suspension that makes it pleasant to drive on winding roads in College Station.
The new Nissan Kicks is a cinch to maneuver, but its lack of steering feedback makes it less fun to drive.
