The Seltos (SP2) debuted in South Korea on 18 July 2019. The SP2 Seltos is built on a platform shared with the Hyundai Kona and the Kia Soul. This version is also assembled from knock-down kits in Russia and Uzbekistan. SP2 is the internal codename designated to the South Korean built Seltos (unlike the Chinese-built SP2c and the Indian-built SP2i). In 20, the Seltos was the second best-selling Kia model globally after the Sportage, with India as its largest single market. Īccording to Kia Motors Europe COO Emilio Herrera, Kia does not offer Seltos in Europe due to the popularity of larger SUV offerings such as the Sportage and Sorento, and the release of the Stonic and XCeed in the small SUV segment. It was also introduced in Russia in June 2020. The Seltos was launched in the United States, Canada, and Mexico in early 2020 for the 2021 model year. The Seltos was also launched in Indonesia on 20 January 2020. The Seltos was launched in South Korea on 18 July 2019, India on 22 August 2019, and the Philippines on 6 November 2019 with a release in various global markets except Europe by the end of the year. The SP Concept previewed the SP2i Seltos built in India, while the SP Signature is the concept version of the South Korean-made SP2 Seltos. Both concept cars have a close resemblance with the current mass-production versions. The Seltos started as two concept cars, the SP Concept, which was showcased at the 2018 Auto Expo in February 2018, and the SP Signature showcased at the 2019 Seoul Motor Show in March 2019. According to Kia, the Seltos is aimed directly at millennials and "youthful, tech-savvy buyers" looking for a vehicle that stands out from the crowd. The name "Seltos" is derived from "Celtos", the son of Hercules and Celtine in Greek mythology. Despite being a globally marketed model, the Seltos is not sold in the European market. The SP2i and SP2c models are the low-cost versions of the Seltos to penetrate emerging markets, built on the Hyundai-Kia K2 platform and closely related to the second-generation Hyundai Creta/ix25. The two other variations are the Indian-made Seltos (codename: SP2i) and the closely related Chinese version badged as the Kia KX3 (codename: SP2c). The first variation is the largest version of the Seltos, which is manufactured in South Korea (codename: SP2) mainly aimed for developed markets, including North America and Australasia. The Seltos is designated as a global product with three variations introduced for different markets. Introduced in mid-2019, the Seltos is positioned between the smaller Stonic, Soul, or Sonet and the larger Sportage in Kia's global SUV lineup. The Kia Seltos ( Korean: 기아 셀토스) is a subcompact crossover SUV manufactured by Kia.
