2027 Kia Seltos Color Options

If you’re cross-shopping 2027 Kia Seltos color options before heading to the lot, you’re asking the right question at the right time. Color availability on this redesigned SUV isn’t universal across the lineup. What you can get depends heavily on which trim you choose, and that distinction trips up a lot of buyers who fall in love with a shade online only to find it’s reserved for a different configuration. We put this guide together so you know exactly which colors pair with which trim before you ever sit down with our team.
By the end of this post, you’ll know which exterior colors are available on each of the five 2027 Seltos trims, how the black-roof two-tone option works, how interior colors are assigned, and which combination makes sense for your climate and lifestyle here in Northeast Florida.
What’s New About the Redesigned 2027 Kia Seltos?
The 2027 Seltos is an all-new, second-generation model, and Kia didn’t just refresh the paint chart. The new Seltos wears a design inspired by the Telluride and rides on a wheelbase up to 2.4 inches longer than before. Ground clearance reaches up to 8.1 inches on X-Line trims, passenger volume is best-in-class according to Kia, and cargo space stretches to an estimated 64.2 cubic feet behind the first row.
That redesign is exactly why the color story matters this year. With a new body comes a new palette, including standouts like Terrain Brown, Frost Blue, and black-roof two-tone combinations that echo the Telluride’s look. Those shades, paired with returning favorites, are why so many buyers are asking us to break down 2027 Seltos trims and specs before they commit to a color.
Which Exterior Colors Come on the 2027 Kia Seltos?
Exterior color availability expands as you move up the trim ladder, starting with three colors on LX and growing to eleven on X-Line S. Tap through each trim below to see exactly where your favorite shade lands.
What colors are available on the LX trim?
The LX trim comes in three colors: Aurora Black Pearl, Snow White Pearl, and Ivory Silver. These are Kia’s most classic, versatile shades, and they’re a practical starting point if color flexibility matters less to you than keeping your Seltos focused on value.
Buyers who choose LX are typically prioritizing value and simplicity over customization. If that’s you, know that these three colors are also the easiest to match with nearly any interior or exterior accessory down the road, since neutral paint rarely clashes with trim pieces or dealer-installed add-ons.


What colors are available on the S and EX trims?
The S and EX trims share the same seven-color palette: Aurora Black Pearl, Snow White Pearl, Ivory Silver, Interstellar Gray, Pale Gray, Frost Blue, and Iceberg Green. That’s more than double the LX’s selection, giving mid-range buyers room to express some personality without stepping up to an X-Line trim.
This is where Frost Blue joins the palette, a cooler, more distinctive tone than the standard grays. If you’ve been eyeing something a little different from the usual black-or-white default, S and EX are where that search starts. Both trims offer front-wheel drive or available all-wheel drive, so you can pair your color choice with the drivetrain that fits your commute.




What colors come on the X-Line S trim?
The X-Line S trim offers the widest color selection on the 2027 Seltos, with eight standard colors plus three black-roof two-tone combinations, for eleven total options. The standard colors are Aurora Black Pearl, Snow White Pearl, Interstellar Gray, Terrain Brown, Pale Gray, Frost Blue, Iceberg Green, and Magma Red Matte. Ivory Silver, notably, is not offered on X-Line trims.
The three two-tone combinations pair Snow White Pearl, Frost Blue, or Terrain Brown with a black roof, giving the X-Line S a distinctly upscale look borrowed from the Telluride’s design language. If a two-tone roof is the look you want, X-Line S gives you more ways to get it than any other trim in the lineup.


What colors are available on the X-Line SX?
The X-Line SX offers the same eight standard colors as X-Line S (Aurora Black Pearl, Snow White Pearl, Interstellar Gray, Terrain Brown, Pale Gray, Frost Blue, Iceberg Green, and Magma Red Matte) but does not currently offer the black-roof two-tone treatment. If the two-tone look is a must-have for you, that’s a meaningful reason to consider X-Line S over SX, even though SX sits at the top of the lineup.
The X-Line SX comes with the 1.6-liter turbocharged engine, producing 190 horsepower compared to 147 horsepower from the 2.0-liter engine found across most of the lineup. Buyers choosing SX are typically prioritizing power and top-tier standard equipment over the two-tone aesthetic.








How Does Interior Color Work on the 2027 Seltos?
Interior color on the 2027 Seltos is determined entirely by trim level, not by your exterior paint choice. This means you can’t mix and match, for example, a light interior with a dark exterior, or vice versa, the way you might on some other vehicles. If interior color or material is a priority for you, it may actually be the deciding factor in which trim you choose, rather than the other way around.
| Trim | Seat Material | Interior Color |
|---|---|---|
| LX | Woven cloth | Saturn Black/Gray |
| S | Woven cloth | Saturn Black/Gray |
| EX | Perforated SynTex | Saturn Black/Gray |
| X-Line S | Perforated and quilted SynTex | Monotone Saturn Black |
| X-Line SX | Perforated and quilted SynTex | Monotone Saturn Black |
Does the Black-Roof Two-Tone Option Cost Extra?
Yes, the black-roof two-tone treatment is typically a paid option, and certain premium finishes, such as pearl and matte paints, can also carry an additional charge. Because those amounts can shift between the time a vehicle is announced and when it actually arrives on our lot, we don’t list specific figures here.
When you’re ready to lock in a configuration, our team can confirm exactly what your chosen color adds for the specific vehicle you’re considering. It’s also worth checking our current offers and incentives before you finalize your build.
Which Color Should You Choose for Florida’s Climate?
If you’re driving in St. Augustine, Jacksonville, Palm Coast, or anywhere else in Northeast Florida, color choice is worth thinking about beyond aesthetics alone. Lighter colors tend to reflect heat rather than absorb it, which can make a real difference to interior temperature after a car sits in a parking lot under the Florida sun. Darker colors look sharp but will show dust, pollen, and swirl marks more readily, which matters if you’re not planning to wash your vehicle weekly.
What Does Family Kia of St. Augustine Recommend?
We understand that picking a color feels like a small decision wrapped inside a much bigger one, and we don’t take that lightly. For most buyers in our area, we tend to point toward the S or EX trim in Frost Blue or Pale Gray. It’s a combination that gives you a distinctive look, a lighter color that holds up well to Florida sun, and a trim level with enough standard equipment to feel complete without stepping up to an X-Line.
How Can You See 2027 Seltos Colors in Person at Family Kia?
Photos and configurators only tell you so much, and color in particular can look different under showroom lighting versus full sun. You’re welcome to browse our new Kia Seltos inventory at your leisure to see what’s currently on our lot, though we’d encourage you to call ahead since specific colors and trims rotate frequently as new vehicles arrive. If a lightly driven model fits your plans better, our used Kia Seltos selection is worth a look too.
