![]() UPDATE !! It's been just over one year and nothings changed. UPDATED !! It's been 7 months and we still love this car !! No problem's or complaint's. It's just plain fun and economical to drive. I'm 54 and have owned everything from 70's Cadillac land yacht's to pickup truck's and I have to say that in initial quality and and all around comfort the Kia Soul is suprisingly smooth and comfortable. It has bluetooth and a ton of nice features in the radio. Comfort, which give's the steering wheel a more luxury car feeling, medium, and sport for a quicker response. There are three levels of steering sensitivity you can control with one button while your driving. The braking is responsive and handling is nice too. At take off it's a little slow at first but does well just the same. Acceleration- It's no speed demon unless you floor it but we were'nt looking for that. My wife has back problem's and the vehicle height is just right. No, your not going to haul lumber home with it but the rear storage compartment is well thought out. As for the storage space there is plenty for a little car. Your a little higher off the ground than the new sedan's out there. The visiblity out of the window's is nice. The base model which we bought has alot of great feature's for the money. We traded a 2011 Hyundai Sonata for this and although it never gave us any trouble this Kia out performed the Sonata … in ride and noise level. ![]() Why ? For one this car has a great smooth ride for such a short wheelbase. After giving several makes and model's much consideration and alot of research we test drove the Soul. Kia should hire us as spoke persons.We just purchased a 2016 Kia Soul. Find your perfect car with Edmunds expert reviews, car comparisons, and pricing tools. $18,750 out the door + 1.9% for 48 months with $1750 rebate thru Kia. Save up to 5,562 on one of 4,500 used 2018 Kia Souls in Lynchburg, VA. Darn!! Bumper-to-bumper coverage, emergency roadside assistance and gas & tire service for 6 years, 50,000 miles - INCLUDED. Fair to midland stock sound system with USB, 1/8" aux input, SiriusXM, Am/Fm ect. Very high quality information/entertainment system that connects with our Android phones to use maps and UVO diagnotics & emergency breakdown protection. More like a luxury SUV to us, as is the interior also. The ride in the 2011 was/is rough, kinda truckish, but this 2019 is absolutely not. The new Soul + is gorgeous! This is Titanium Gray with a striking metallic appearance and high quality clear-coat that gives off an illusion of depth. ![]() The only "work" we had done was a major tuneup at around 100K due to uneven idle and poor mileage, and it was due anyway. A couple recalls in 10 years but nothing major. New oil every 6000 - 7000 miles, mostly conventional, although she's runnin' full synth now, a good idea with higher mileage. I've done the disc brakes all around once and the tires all around were replaced once. $235 at Safelite, insurance didn't cover with deductable. Had 2 or 3 chips repaired over the years and had it replaced this week because of a major crack … from above the rearview mirror to directly in the driver's eyeline. Never had an accident but one chronic issue was/is the windshield. We purchased the car new in Autumn 2010 and are just shy of 124,000 miles. This is an outstanding motor vehicle! Still have our first Kia, a 2011 Soul Plus in Denim Metallic, 2 liter/4 cylinder, 5 speed manual transmission.
