They understand that cars need to be more than just transport from A to B. Our vehicles are what we rely on to get to the jobs that support us, and they take our families back and forth to school and practices. The car we choose to drive is important because it aids us in our day to day lives and has the possibility to make our lives easier, safer, more enjoyable, and the world more accessible.
Kia designs cars for people, real people. If you are looking for an affordable vehicle that is filled with tech, on trend and reliable no matter where you may roam, the Kia Soul Turbo is definitely worth looking at. Thank you Kia for providing me with a Kia Soul Turbo to test drive.
All opinions remain my own. That is a handsome looking car. I love not only the exterior appearance, but the safety features as well. Though entertainingly quicker than the base engine—zero to 60 mph is a 6. While one Soul Turbo we tested was barely slower to 60 mph, our long-term Soul Turbo test car posted a hotter 6. A manual transmission could spice up the GT-Line's turbo engine, but Kia doesn't offer one. Too bad. Straight-line speed aside, there is little difference in athleticism among the new Soul's trim levels.
The GT-Line rides slightly firmer, yet every Soul we drove exhibited good body control, improved ride quality, and better isolation from wind and road noise. So composed and planted is the Soul, in fact, that the X-Line clung to our skidpad to the tune of 0. That lateral grip figure places the humble Soul on the grippier side of the Honda Civic Si on its standard all-season tires and the last Volkswagen GTI we tested.
Less grip could also explain the GT-Line's foot-longer stopping distance from 70 mph feet. The X-Line's impressive road adhesion aside, every Soul is best described as a point-and-shoot kind of car, one that's competent, if not exactly fun to drive.
The lower-priced versions are a better value, and you won't be disappointed by a jerky transmission and the unfulfilled promise of performance. As stylish as ever, Kia's latest box is attractive and practical and should please, whether you need affordable wheels, an off-road-wannabe hatchback like the X-Line, or end up being chauffeured in the back seat after a night out partying like an anthropomorphic hamster.

Smart cruise control is a safety and luxury feature implemented in the Kia Soul which adapts the speed of the vehicle based on the one in front of it. For example, if the car in front is slowing down, the Kia Soul will automatically decelerate. This feature is excellent for snowy conditions as it helps the driver to control their speed and keep their vehicle at a safe distance to the car ahead.
It can be effective during times of low visibility as well. The car will assist in avoiding collisions due to tailgating and excessive speeding. The heated seats and steering wheel can be used in order to keep the driver comfortable in the car. The heat settings can be adjusted in order for the driver to find their perfect temperature and comfort level. This is helpful in cold and snowy conditions as it keeps the driver comfortable, awake and alert.
A driver that is uncomfortable and cold is easily distracted and they are not able to focus for longer periods of time. The heated steering and seats in the Kia Soul solve this problem. However, the car does feature traction control which is extremely helpful in snowy conditions as it limits the amount of torque that is sent to the wheels. The Kia Soul is able to have snow gear attached to it. The back end will probably pass-up the driver when braking in the snow.
An AWD car will be quick off the line, but it gives most drivers the feeling of invincibility and they drive too fast in bad conditions. JA answered 2 years ago. I live in NH travel to Maine also. Absolutely agree with Mullschlucker. Snow tires is all I need winters on our Soul. GuruMPB52 answered about a year ago.
Hask answered 10 months ago. I live in Maine and just bought a Kia Soul. We just had a snow storm that dumped 12" of snow. I tried to drive to work on plowed roads, with regular tires, and it drove fine. On roads with " of snow, the vehicle became stuck. Snow tires are a must!!!! A mechanic told me the car just doesn't weigh very much and that's
