Keszthelyi began her career in 2014 at the age of thirteen, entering the Swift Cup Europe series with a special license.[3] At the end of the season, she finished third in the junior and sixth in the overall standings.[4] The promoter of Swift Cup Austria invited her to one of the races of the competition, where she finished fourth.[5]
In her second season in the Swift Cup Europe, Keszthelyi finished third in the absolute and second in the junior category.[6] In 2016, she was included into the Audi Sport Racing Academy at the age of fifteen among the three drivers chosen to be members of the academy.[7][8]
Keszthelyi then competed in the Central European Zone Trophy with an Audi TT in 2016, earning herself a place in Audi's academy programme.[8][9][10][11][12][13] In her first season, she became the D-2000 Hungarian national champion of both the sprint and the endurance category with race wins in both.[14][15][16]
In 2017, Keszthelyi continued in the Audi TT Cup where she only completed seven out of thirteen races.[17][18] She collected 65 points and finished 13th in the championship.[19][20][21][22]

On 2 January 2019, it was confirmed that Keszthelyi would race in the F3 Asian Championship Winter Series.[29][30] She scored 13 points and finished 13th.[31]
Keszthelyi qualified for W Series as one of two reserve drivers.[32] Keszthelyi replaced Emma Kimiläinen in the second round at Zolder and the third round at Misano, scoring her only point of the season in the latter.[33] Normally a reserve driver, she was promoted to regular driver duties at Round 4 and Round 6.[34]
