  • In Love with the Soul - 2010 Kia Soul
    By -

    I cant say enough good things about this car! By far the best Ive ever owned. Ive always preferred small cars, but this is the best because its roomy on the inside, which is important since I have 2 kids to drive around. Getting a car seat in and out is no problem, it sips gas, I can commute all over town and save way more $$ than I did with my suv! I have previously owned an Optima, and then a Rio, both were good cars, but this one is the best, and I would buy another!

  • IM THE FUNKIEST DRIVER IN CLIFTON PARK! - 2010 Kia Soul
    By -

    I just purchased my alien green Kia Soul ! and LOVE IT! Everyone at my complex loves the looks and equipment too. Its a smooth drive, plenty roomy, many fun options (especially those mood lights!) Visibility is great. I dont know what some of the reviews mean by excessive road noise over 60 mph - I dont notice anything significant and neither does anyone who has ridden with me. Good handling, quick to respond and excellent brakes! My dog, Abe, has plenty of room to stretch out and relax too - who would have thought when I adopted him that one day my dog would have a Soul? (Ha.) Id recommend this car to anyone!

    I took advantage of the cash for clunkers and I went from a 98 Grand Caravan to the coolest ride - a 2010 Soul+ in Alien green. I love it. It attracts as much positive attention as would an expensive European car. Im 64" tall with long legs and I cannot believe the room inside the car. I want to wash this car often because I am happy to be seen driving it. You have to love a car when youre making payments. My wife offers to drive when we go out - thats a benefit I never had! Advertised city MPG is 25 but I average 23 MPG as a careful driver in Eco mode.

  • One week to decide - 2010 Kia Soul

    First, I liked the fact that the sales person at the dealership was the only one to respect my request for initial information via e-mail. Im not a small guy, however I fit in the Soul with room to spare. My wife likes the satellite radio enough that I wish there was a speaker jack for her pleasure. After three week, Ive got 3000 miles on the car due to a trip to Wisconsin. Car road well on highway. So far so good.

  • Fun to drive with style! - 2010 Kia Soul
    By -

    Bought for my son as a high school graduation gift. He drove the Cube & xB & the Soul was by far his fave. Great style, fun to drive, very roomy inside & fantastic features standard in this model. Build quality is excellent. Stereo system rocks. Ipod connectivity works great. No complaints so far. Add the great warranty & you have a winner compared to the Nissan or Scion. Got 1.9% APR financing as well as a great deal. Nice job, Kia!

  • We Got Soul! - 2010 Kia Soul
    By -

    What a ride handles great w/sport suspension a little harsh the ride on very rough rodes. 2litre engine is packed with get up and go from exit ramp to hiway speed 65 is very impressive. The interior seating and overall roomines is excellent. Again Sport suspension has its pluses when cornering Soul is sure footed no body roll around corners @ 45 + mph. VEry well equipped we added LED interior lighting and in rear cargo the factory light is poor we added strip Led lightinging to the left and right side along the upper and lower seam where the rear panels meet. 3k + miles and enjoy driving our Soul everyday. Soul is a Great CUV.

  • Great Value - 2010 Kia Soul
    By -

    Just bought it tonight after looking for several weeks at xB, Fit, Element & Cube. All the included features and warranty just cant be beat. I wanted a manual transmission again to teach son how to drive and this will do just fine. Not sports car shifting/handling but not expecting that anyway. Our family of four is very comfortable around town which is 95% of drive time anyway. Very stable on road. 18" wheels slighty less give than 16" on the + model, but the rest of the ! features were worth it. So far so good!

  • Great little Crossover - 2010 Kia Soul

  • LOVIN IT - 2010 Kia Soul
    By -

    This is an awesome little car. We went from a gas guzzling Mazda 6 to this awesome 31 avg. MPG car. This is our very first new car and what a buy! There have been no issues. Our MPG is just amazing to us and we are saving money on our payments. If people dont like that it doesnt have auto everything I say to them,"QUIT BEING LAZY!". As for MPG, if ya cant get great milage, maybe try keepin it in ECO MODE or just try driving the speed limit. This isnt a Ford, Nissan, or GM, this is in a class of its own. One awesome car, way to go Kia.
