Fun and Roomy

“The Soul’s upright body provides a spacious interior with plenty of room for people and cargo. Kia’s designers have incorporated enough youthful cheekiness inside to match the Soul’s fashion-forward exterior, including textured door-panel inserts and colorful trim.” – Drew Dorian, Car and Driver

The 2023 Kia Soul has a personality all its own, and choosing it identifies you as someone who drives to the beat of their own drum. This unconventional, boxy design imbibes the vehicle with a sense of whimsy, but it’s really a fun front that hides a truly practical cabin environment. While it’s fun inside and out, there is plenty of room inside for both people and cargo despite its small exterior footprint.

Reshaping the Future

Kia provides its Soul SUV with a light makeover for the 2023 model year. The changes are limited to the exterior and include new bumper designs and a new grille. The headlamps were also reshaped, and drivers now have new 17- and 18-inch wheels from which to choose.

Time to Motor

“The 2023 Kia Soul is a value-packed crossover with a low starting price, many standard features, a spacious cabin and composed handling. You’ll find all the basics — and more — in this practical SUV.” – Zach Doell, US News & World Report

The 2023 Kia Soul is built with a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine that pairs with a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) and front-wheel drive to deliver 147 horsepower. While it might not have the power of its larger siblings, the Soul is adequately powered for its diminutive size, feeling peppy around town and providing sharp handling on all drives. The Soul provides a comfortable and fun ride that matches its unique design.

Forward-Thinking Interior

“In addition to solid driving dynamics, the Soul benefits from a smart interior. There is plenty of space for passengers, and cargo capacity is reasonable for the segment.” – Kelly Lin, MotorTrend

The 2023 Kia Soul’s boxy design delivers not only fantastic sightlines to drivers but plenty of passenger and cargo space. It’s a surprisingly spacious vehicle for its compact exterior footprint and is comfortable enough for adults in all rows. The fashion-forwardness found outside transfers easily into the interior with colorful trim and textured door panel inserts. Depending on the model chosen, you can expect goodies such as ambient lighting, a smartphone charging pad, a head-up display, push-button ignition with keyless entry, and heated seats and steering wheel.

Checking the High-Tech Boxes

Drivers can enjoy a touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability on all models of the 2023 Kia Soul. Higher trim levels can add SiriusXM satellite radio, real-time traffic updates, in-dash navigation, and a wireless smartphone charging pad.

The Soul also delivers on safety with several standard driver-assist technologies present in the SUV. This includes forward-collision warning with automated emergency braking and lane-departure warning with lane-keeping assist.

A Steal of an SUV
