Kia

The six SUVs that were part of our recent Affordable SUV Challenge were smaller, subcompact models, and there were some significant differences in the amount of cargo space they offered.

Kia has reinforced rails to prevent the second-row captain’s seat from breaking loose in 2024 Carnivals built after August 2023, and IIHS has performed testing on the updated minivan.

In our 2023 Affordable SUV Challenge, the most expensive vehicle in the test, the 2024 Kia Seltos SX Turbo, tied for first place in our value scoring with the least expensive vehicle in our test, the 2024 Chevrolet Trax Activ.

The 2024 Kia Seltos improves upon an already winning formula by giving its turbocharged engine a smooth, traditional automatic transmission, while continuing to offer an impressive mix of useful features and high-quality materials.

There are many EVs on the market now that can handle light- or medium-weight trailers, and a handful of new electric light-duty pickup trucks can even go “tow-to-tow” with their gasoline counterparts.

The Light returns to the EV6 lineup for 2024, dropping the price of entry from 2023 by nearly $6,000.

The 2024 Kia EV9 electric mid-size SUV will have up to an EPA-estimated 304 miles of driving range when it arrives late in 2023, according to the automaker.

New SUVs are expensive, so we tested six affordable SUVs priced around $30,000 to find which one is best.

The Kia Seltos SX rode its model-year 2024 updates to a second consecutive win in a comparison test of affordable SUVs.

The Kia Telluride carries over virtually unchanged for the 2024 model year after a freshening for 2023 and continues to be a good value in the competition among mid-size, three-row family SUVs.
