2nd Generation — 2027 to Present
How the Schedule Has Changed Over Time
2027 — New Generation
All-New 2nd-Gen Seltos Adds the First Seltos Hybrid New Gen
The larger, redesigned 2nd-generation Seltos arrives with the brand's first Seltos hybrid variant, bringing hybrid-specific service items to the lineup alongside the familiar gas schedule.
2024 — Facelift
1.6T Switches to an 8-Speed Automatic Transmission Change
The refreshed Seltos moves the 1.6L turbo from a 175-hp 7-speed dual-clutch to a 195-hp 8-speed automatic — a transmission-type change with different fluid-service needs — and adds the X-Line trim.
2021 — US Launch
Seltos Arrives With Two Engine Choices New Gen
The subcompact Seltos launched with a 2.0L MPI (CVT) and a 1.6L turbo-GDI (dual-clutch). Both engines use a timing chain rather than a belt, so there's no belt-replacement interval to plan for. Routine oil and rotation lands every 8,000 miles on the 2.0L or every 6,000 miles on the 1.6T — the turbo runs a shorter interval; cabin filter follows a time-based inspect/replace cycle; engine air filter at 30,000; spark plugs come due at 96,000 miles on the 2.0L or 42,000 miles on the 1.6T; brake fluid replaces every 48,000 miles or 48 months; first coolant change at 120,000 miles.

Seltos Maintenance FAQs
Where's the Seltos Schedule for My Year?⌄
Select 2021–2027 for oil and rotation, filters, spark plugs, coolant, and AWD driveline service.
Do the 2.0L and Turbo Seltos Have the Same Service?⌄
No — the turbo runs shorter oil (6,000 vs. 8,000 miles) and spark-plug (42,000 vs. 96,000 miles) intervals on pre-2024 cars, though both use a timing chain with no belt to replace. The 1.6T's transmission also changed in 2024, so fluid service may differ by year; ask your advisor to confirm for your VIN.
