Want an amazing ride? I got you.

This vehicle has a lot more room than most realize. Performance couldn't ask for better. Reliability unmatched. My car is fully loaded I love all the features that come with it. One of my favorite features is the led light up speakers. Great car. Love.

The gas mileage is awesome. The room level is perfect. It is great for family use.

I have noticed the transmission slipping a little but I believe it is because the previous drivers did not use premium gas which it calls for. I do love how spacious it is. It is got so much room so you do not feel so cramped like a normal vehicle makes you feel.

Good on mileage and is a very reliable car.

It's a really good car I love it so much. It is great on mileage and has a backup camera. Its little so it's easy to park and it has held up really well. I drove over two thousand miles on it from traveling so it's pretty reliable. Yeah sure I feel like I am driving a GameCube but it is what it is.

Pros and cons of 2015 Kia soul.

Pros: attractive cabin with user-friendly controls and ample passenger space and excellent crash test scores. Con: so-so fuel economy, blind spot on the passenger side - due to the rather thick pillars where the tail lights reside, no spare tire included, insufficient cargo space.

I made a great purchase in the Kia soul!

The vehicle is great in fuel consumption. It rides good, and the radio is decent. The vehicle does not have a lot of cargo space and if two friends adults sit in the back, there is not very much room. The safety enraging in this car is excellent t and insurance is lower.

I like my sunroof that goes from the front of the car to the back.

I like the Bluetooth features on car. The car is not really bad. Good mileage brakes work fine. Good car to drive all around the city in. The only thing I have to complain about is the tires I had to constantly replace. But other than that it is a great affordable car.

Radio and roominess for value.

My vehicle is reliable. There are not a lot of bells and whistles but, a very good radio for the value. For the price it is roomy inside. There is adequate trunk space for a hatchback. I was disappointed there was not a spare tire or maybe just missing.

This is a great car so buy it!

Though it is a funny shape it has lots of room. So far it has been maintenance free except it needed. Because it is white it frequently needs a wash job. The trunk is not very big unless the back seat is put down but then you cannot put anyone in the back seat.

Car review and it is pros and cons of the family vehicle driven everyday.

Not comfy not safe enough to small to many recalls seats should be updated burns a lot of oil which cause me to get frequent oil changes. Gas mileage should be increased. Child lock is a pain. Trunk size is great. But takes you space of vehicle. Love color and design. Love radio and Bluetooth features.

Jennifer K

Great headspace and great range anxiety.

I love the design of the Kia soul ev. There is plenty of headroom in a still somewhat compact shape. However the car only has a range of 100 miles and they are not 1-1 like in a gasoline car. So it can get pretty stressful if you are going somewhere that has a distance close to how many miles you have left. I charge all the time it seems. However if you can find free charging stations it is a great if inconvenient deal.

It is been pretty great and definitely affordable. I like simple. It drives well, but, my car insurance rose because they said the car is not as safe as others.

How Reliable Is The 2015 Kia Soul EV?

Yes, we have had no problems with our Kia. It has been a very reliable car. No complaints here. Very satisfied.

Julie M.

It has not had any problems so far. I still do not understand what to do if I get a flat tire, though. There's something to fix it, but the dealership didn't explain it very well.

adriane r.

Is The 2015 Kia Soul EV A Good Value?

We paid 15,000 new. We feel like it was a great value compared to the cost of other new cars. We are happy with our decision to get our Kia.

Julie M.

It costs around $18,000. It is cheaper brand new than almost everything else out there and I am not rich.
