Kia Seltos Roof Rack Installation –
Complete Guide (2020–2026)
Does the Kia Seltos Have Built-in Roof Rails?
Yes! The Kia Seltos (all variants from 2020 onwards) comes with flush rails (integrated roof rails) running along the roofline. These rails have pre-drilled, reserved mounting bolt holes underneath them – no drilling or adhesives needed.
This makes installation clean, secure, and fully reversible. Simply locate the bolt holes, fit the rack feet, and you're done.
What Size Roof Rack Fits a Kia Seltos?
We fit universal cross bars using the factory flush rail mounting points. The bar sizes we use are optimised for the Kia Seltos roofline:
| Position | Cross Bar Length | Mounting |
|---|---|---|
| Front cross bar | 95 cm | Factory flush rail bolt holes |
| Rear cross bar | 90 cm | Factory flush rail bolt holes |
How Is the Roof Rack Installed?
Installation is straightforward when you know the correct mounting points. Here's the process we follow:
-
1Locate the mounting points The Kia Seltos flush rails have reserved bolt holes hidden under the rail. These are the factory attachment points for the rack feet.
