Kia has released the first teaser images of the all-new second-generation Seltos, which will make its official debut on April 1 at the New York Auto Show. This model will join the 2026 lineup and feature a redesigned exterior.

The crossover follows the brand's Opposites United design philosophy, blending natural elements with technological cues. From the images, the vehicle appears to have a more angular and substantial body, along with a taller silhouette. Notable design touches include distinctive LED daytime running lights, a wide hood line, and flush door handles.

Visually, the new Seltos shares design language with the larger second-generation Telluride. Kia emphasizes that the updated Seltos aims to balance everyday practicality with versatility for longer trips.

Full technical specifications and equipment details will be announced during the presentation. The event will be streamed live on Kia's official channels.
