Benefits Of A Kia Soul

The Kia Soul is a unique offering on the EV scene in that long-lasting electric range has up until now been reserved for higher-end cars such as the Jaguar I-Pace, the Audi E-Tron or any one of the Tesla models. But with the Soul, you can now lease an EV with a good range at an inexpensive price. It also offers strong performance allied with a comfortable ride. This all makes the Kia Soul a very attractive leasing option for anyone looking to go electric but who might also have concerns about practicality.

What’s The Interior Of A Kia Soul Like?

The blocky exterior has been designed to turn heads, but the interior layout in the Soul is all about practicality and ease of use. Black leather is standard which, along with the black plastic used on most surfaces, does create a slightly dark atmosphere. The mostly sombre cabin is brightened up by some cool LED design elements in the front doors, though. The configurable digital driver display and 10-inch central infotainment system are uncomplicated and easy to get accustomed to. A row of buttons beneath the display provide quick access to various features.

How Does The Kia Soul Drive?

The raised seating position and squared-off, slightly boxy style make for a very easy vehicle to feel confident in around town. The instant power delivery afforded by the electric powertrain gives the Kia Soul a lively feeling from behind the wheel – overtaking is not a problem and the suspension is great at soaking up the bumps. The Kia Soul is equally comfortable on longer journeys and on the motorway – its 204hp electric motor is more than up to the task of hauling 4 adults and a packed boot up the steepest of gradients. The 0-62mph sprint takes 7.9 seconds, making it one of the quicker vehicles in its segment.

Although the Soul is not oversized, its quirky exterior styling does impact somewhat its practicality. The cabin is still spacious though – whether you are seated in the front or the rear, head and legroom are more than adequate. The driver gets an electrically adjustable seat, so getting comfy won’t be a problem. Storage space is also great, with decently sized door pockets and glovebox.
The Kia Soul is equipped with a 64kWh battery pack. That’s quite big for this sort of vehicle – and what gives it its class-topping 280 miles of range. Aside from the Kia Niro EV, with which the Soul shares a lot of mechanical components and the same battery pack, rivals like the Peugeot E-2008 offer around 200 miles on a charge. The far pricier Jaguar I-PACE manages just 12 miles more than the Soul on its far bigger 90kWh battery.

Plugging your Kia Soul into a standard 3-pin plug at home will take a rather lengthy 31 hours for a full charge. It’s highly advisable to install a 7kW wall box charger, which brings that time down to under 10 hours. Out on the road, a 50kW fast charger will get you from 0-80% in an hour and 15 minutes.

The Kia Soul Vs Competitors

The Kia Soul is a well-equipped compact crossover with impressive performance and range. It’s definitely worthy of being on your shortlist, even when compared to the many impressive offerings in this EV segment. The Kia Niro EV and Hyundai Kona Electric both feature the same underpinnings but offer more practical, if less adventurous, exterior styling. The Peugeot E-2008 has slightly less range but more boot space, while more premium rivals like the newer Volkswagen ID.4 and upcoming Tesla Model Y are also worth considering.

Yes. The Kia Soul is a competitive vehicle in its segment and offers excellent range, good performance and decent build quality. It also comes standard with a 7-year warranty, more than most rivals offer.
No. Previous generations of the Kia Soul were offered with petrol engines, but the new Soul is purely an electric car.
The Kia Soul offers plenty of room for four adults and their paraphernalia. The boot, however, is smaller than the class average, offering just 311 litres of space with the rear seats up. The mechanically similar Kia E-Niro offers 451 litres, and even the Nissan Leaf hatchback has 435 litres.
