Things to know about the Kia Seltos 2023 Nightfall Edition.
In terms of sales, the Kia Seltos compact crossover performed well right out of the gate.
For the 2023 model year, it is set to be even better than before, with Kia deciding to deliver a number of improvements, including more standard safety equipment across the entire lineup.
All trim levels, other than the base LX model, now come with remote start, UVO connectivity, auto climate control, and a 10.25-inch infotainment screen.
2023 Kia Seltos Nightfall Edition trim
Besides the new standard features, we will also see the 2023 Seltos Turbo Nightfall Edition trim level included as part of the Kia US lineup.
The addition of some great looking exterior accessories is part of what makes the Nightfall so special.
The special edition model comes equipped with a black finish signature grille, roof rack rails as standard, black exterior accent, a sporty door addition, and the all-new Kia logo. Also included are 18-inch alloy wheels with a sleek matte black finish.
Much like on the Telluride, the largest SUV in the Kia lineup, the look of the 2023 Kia Seltos is enhanced in the Nightfall Edition.
Kia first used the blacked-out look in the US with the Telluride and it proved to be a very big hit with consumers. We have since seen the Sorento and Sportage crossover models get a similar look, and we have to say that it looks just as good on the Seltos.
While much of the focus in on the black exterior, the Nightfall Edition also comes with some additional safety features. These include lane keep and lane following technology, blind spot detection, and auto emergency braking.
These are in addition to the impressive list if features that already come with this great looking crossover.
