Air Conditioned Seats is Why I Bought it

Plenty of leg room and space. I wanted air conditioned seats and this is the only vehicle I could find under $55,000. It is also rated 5 stars which is important to me. I would buy another Soul+ because I have had it for 5 years (40K miles) and no problems.

Favorite car I've owned so far

This car was better than we ever hoped it would be. It's such an attractive car for such an affordable price. But the affordability did not mean that we had to sacrifice in quality. We never ran into any issues with it. With regular oil changes and maintenance checks, it ran like a champ the whole time we owned it (5 years). We only ended up getting something different when our second baby came along and we needed more cargo space and more room for multiple car seats, a double stroller, etc. But it has adequate space for adults, and even families with one child. We took it to the mountains, packed with 4 adults just fine. It has been an awesome purchase. One of my favorite features was the Bluetooth. It worked flawlessly--so much better than Odyssey we ended up getting.

always has a problem

My kia dealership knows me by name. There is always something wrong with my car. i have had it for 3 years and my ac has gone out 3 times. The first time they recharged my ac. The second time they found a leak. I’m going tomorrow to see what’s wrong now. I have put way too much money in this car. When it is running right it is a nice quiet car with good speakers.

A great little car for the value

It is very comfortable for my 73" frame. It has excellent features, like blue tooth, cruise control, electric controls, etc. as much as my bigger van.

Best car I ever owned

Exceptional power for a small car, reliable and fun. Very little to zero maintenance. great for trips with at lease 40mpg when in Eco mode.

Outstanding Car

This car is really neat, IT HAS SIDE AIR BAGS! I am older and I was looking for a car that I could easily enter and exit. Love the ability to easily get my seat back. Best thing I cannot take my key out if my car is not all the way in Park.
