A mere month after its international launch, Kia introduced two custom Seltos models at the LA Motor Show.

The one we’re interested in the the Seltos X-Line Trail Attack Concept, which appears to be an overlander of sorts.

This once-off model includes a number of off-road gear, including a front winch, roof rack, a 50mm lift kit and a set of serious all-terrain tyres.

Power is provided by a 1.6-litre turbocharged petrol engine, mated to a seven-speed transmission. It’s also equipped with an all-wheel drive system with a centre differential lock.

There are no plans to put this car into production, but rather to show possible customers what is possible with the Seltos.

It never felt like it was working hard, and after 2 400 kilometres, neither did I.
