The Kia Seltos has taken the Australian market by storm, quickly becoming one of the most popular small crossovers on sale thanks to its combination of size, design, features and the surety of the Kia badge. But is it seriously worth 10-15 grand more than the new Haval Jolion? The Chinese Haval is about the same size, it’s also feature-packed, and there’s no stripper base model, per se.
So is the Jolion cheap for a reason? Is the Kia built better? Which SUV is safer? Which drives better? Let’s find out, objectively.
Rivals to the Jolion and Seltos include the Toyota C-HR, Mazda CX-30, Mitsubishi ASX and the Skoda Kamiq.
