Automobiles

The Kia KX3 is a subcompact crossover SUV made exclusively for the Chinese market by Dongfeng Yueda Kia. The first generation, coded KC, appeared as a concept at the 2014 Guangzhou Auto Show and the production car made its debut in March 2015 on the platform of the Hyundai ix25, with 1.6-litre and 2.0-litre engines and a turbocharged 1.6-litre option. A facelift was launched at the 2016 Chengdu Auto Show, and an electric KX3 EV went on sale in China in 2018. In September 2019 Dongfeng Yueda Kia presented the Seltos as the second-generation KX3, adding the Chinese name Aopao, and it reached the Chinese market that December with a 1.5-litre engine and no all-wheel drive. From 2023 the KX3 Aopao was renamed Kia Seltos.
