For it's size, much more than I expected.

Comfortable, good leg and head room. I'm 6' 3'' and ride in comfort. A/C and heat are on point. The gas tank is easy on the pocket.

Great Value!!!

In looking for new cars, I had to stay within a budget but still wanted all of the modern conveniences and technology along with a great warranty. I found the best value with the Kia Soul+. 2.0 engine is peppy but also gets 30 mpg. The digital display and sync to my cell phone makes navigating easy. Plus the in car phone call quality is fantastic.

Versatile and comfortable

I'm a coach and this vehicle is extremely versatile and fits my needs, giving me room to carry my equipment with easy access. In addition, it's compact design takes up much less space in my garage and parking spaces, and is easy to handle.

Go for the Kia Soul Plus with Primo Package

I researched a lot of small SUVs before deciding to go with the Kia Soul Plus with the Primo Package of options and I'm glad I did. The car is roomy inside and full of luxurious touches like all-leather seats, advanced technology and safety systems like collision warning, blind-spot detection, lane departure, auto-brakes, full sun roof, rear-camera and many other conveniences that you wouldn't expect to find in a Kia. On top of all that, it is FUN to drive and looks great.

Love my Kia Soul Turbo 2018

It is comfortable and fun to drive. We already own 1 Kia Soul. I would highly recommend this for a small family, first car, or a couple.

VERY COMFORTABLE STYLISH FUN CAR

THIS CAR IS ROOMY FOR IT'S SIZE AND IT FEELS GOOD TO DRIVE A CAR THAT HAD SUCH POPULAR AND FUN HAMSTER ADS ON TV! IT JUST MAKES YOU FEEL GOOD TO DRIVE IT. IT HAS A UNIQUE LOOK THAT'S NOT TOO BORING, STANDARD NOR TOO WEIRD. IT'S JUST THE RIGHT STAND OUT CAR FOR ITS CLASS. IT'S LIKE A CONVERSATION PIECE! EVERYONE ASKS ABOUT IT.

Nice economic car

This car is perfect to do Uber, roomy yet economical, front wheel drive and fun. I compare other cars and Kia Soul was by far the best choice for me
