What type of engine oil is suitable for the Kia KX3 Seltos?
1 Answers
The manual specifies the use of 5W-20 engine oil. Below are some advantages of the Kia KX3: Spacious interior: Although the KX3 is positioned as a compact SUV, it features a relatively long wheelbase of 2630mm, combined with its boxy body design, resulting in generous rear seating space. Adults sitting in the rear will have about two fists of legroom and approximately one fist of headroom, offering good practicality. Low operating costs: Based on fuel consumption data, the KX3 averages 7.26L/100km. Utilizing ECO mode and auto start-stop more frequently can further improve fuel efficiency. Additionally, Hyundai-Kia's reliability is consistently strong with fewer issues, making the KX3's operating costs relatively low and hassle-free. Comfortable driving experience: The KX3's powertrain isn't particularly powerful, with its 1.5L engine delivering a maximum output of 115 horsepower and 143.8Nm of torque. However, the throttle tuning is responsive, providing brisk acceleration, and the CVT transmission ensures smooth operation. While not exciting, the KX3 is easy to drive, and its suspension effectively absorbs road vibrations, making it well-suited for family use.
