Iconic City-Friendly Design

It may seem strange for a relatively new model to be described as iconic, but the Kia Soul achieved that status almost immediately after its release. Its tiny footprint takes the best elements of an SUV - solidity, robustness, and style - and packs them into a hatchback format that's all upright lines and confident angles. When you need a car that's unfazed by hectic city driving, the agile Soul has few if any equals.

Power Under the Hood

You wouldn't expect a vehicle of this size to set the performance ratings ablaze, but the 2022 Soul is blessed with a pleasing amount of power under the hood. Most models in this year's lineup are driven by a 2.0L I-4 engine making a healthy 147 horsepower and 132lb-ft of torque, a generous amount of output for an SUV of this size. In line with its city driving target market, this powertrain is completed by a continuously variable transmission feeding front-wheel drive.

But if you're looking for a little more pep from your urban hatchback, then trading up to the 1.6L turbo engine delivers a searing 201 horsepower to take the Soul into a new dimension of lively performance. To channel the extra power most effectively to the front-wheel drive, the transmission in this model is upgraded to a silky dual-clutch seven-speed automatic design for highly controllable acceleration and confident cruising.

Interior Space and Comforts

The Soul's straightforward shape means there's a surprising amount of space in the interior, with a generous 104cm of legroom in the front row and a hugely impressive 98.5cm in the rear. Cargo space is also ample, with 685L available in the rear, rising to 1,758.5L with the second-row seats folded down.

There's also an attractive amount of comfort options available depending on the trim, with highlights including dual-zone climate control, a heated steering wheel, and heated power-adjustable front seats.

Advanced Infotainment and Tech

But it's in the infotainment section that the 2022 Soul really impresses, with several improvements over the previous models. The entry-level trim now boasts an 8" infotainment touchscreen as standard, expanding to a 10.3" version on higher trims. Android Auto and Apple CarPlay provide convenient smartphone compatibility, while optional upgrades include wireless device charging, in-built navigation, and a high-end Harman Kardon sound system.
