This is a Motormouth couple car review of the updates 2023 Kia SOUYl subcompact crossover SUV. What’s new for 2023? The Kia Soul gets a more dynamic grille, new bumpers, reshaped headlamps and new wheel designs including 17” and 18” options, standard 16”. The GT-Line model we are driving has an aggressive mesh patterned grille, body coloured front and rear bumpers and chrome trim. The interior gets a new steering wheel and a 4.2” digital driver display. The Kia Soul also receives some new safety features, standard rear-occupant alert, available lane follow assist, navigation based smart cruise control, blind spot collision avoidance assist and highway driving assist. There is just one powertrain now, a 2L 4-cylinder matched to a CVT, 147 horsepower and 132 lb-ft of torque, standard FWD, there is no AWD option. The Kia Soul is practical, versatile, spacious and although some may not like its quirky style, I think it’s a tough one to beat for space and it’s a lot of fun to drive. With 6.7” of ground clearance and a higher seating position, the cabin feels open and offers excellent visibility. The Kia Soul is affordable with a starting price of $22,595 CAD/$19,790 USD, it comes with some great features, an 8” touchscreen, wired Apple Carplay and Android Auto, a 4.2” instrument cluster, a 6-speaker audio system, cloth seats and heated front seats. In the US, heated front seats are optional on the GT-Line and standard on the EX trim. The Kia SOUL GT-Line we are driving for $29,495 CAD/$23,390 USD has all the extras, a 10.25” touchscreen, leather seats, a power driver and passenger seat, ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, sport heated steering wheel, red interior accents, a sunroof, wireless charger, Harman Kardon sound system and a head-up display. In the US, there are few features not available on the Soul, a power passenger seat, ventilated front seats and heated rear seats. Fuel economy, the Soul gets 8.5L/100 km, 28 MPG city and 7L/100 km, 33 MPG highway. Other trims available SOUL EX $24,495 CAD, EX+ $25,295 CAD, EX Premium $27,195 CAD. S $22,290 USD and EX $24,090 USD.

I've seen the whole gamut of drivers in the Kia Soul from younger people to older people. Both women and men too. Its ended up appealing to a pretty wide group of buyers in spite of those early hamster commercials pitching it to millennials when it first came out. Its just an inexpensive, all-purpose vehicle that works for many drivers. There really aren't enough cars like this for a market like today's (high fuel prices, inflation, economic uncertainty).
@palebeachbum

So true! There were many other competitors to the Soul when it first came out, but the Soul is one of the few that actually survived. That says a lot about the appeal of the Soul.

Love the Soul, but afraid that it's reaching the end of its production cycle. It's the perfect vehicle for the mobility impaired. Huge doors, high hip-point seating, low hatch lift-over height, and tons of headroom. Easy to accommodate a folding walker or wheelchair in the cargo area. Plus good gas mileage and VALUE priced, as Zack stated. And the surf blue is awesome, especially if optioned with the black painted roof! 🎨 I always enjoy your videos.

I have the 2024 LX trim in white. I love this vehicle. I got the tech trim package because I needed blind side detect but don't use anything else... not even the radio or phone stuff because I do not access the phone at all while driving and for all I care they can remove the radio I'll never use it. I would use Waze but the problem is I know everywhere I'm going anyway.

I have a few seniors, whom I come across walking my dog, who absolutely revere their Kia Souls (first gen., latest & plug-in). I have never been in one. But they love them for some reason (price, ingress, shape/style??). I’m indifferent. I like the shape and style (with the exception of those high window sills) and it’s easy to reach price. They impress me enough, but I’ve never driven one (yet). I need to try to get some more feedback or seat time, before I make my conclusions on this Kia and your impressions help. Thanks for the video.

We've had our 2018 EX top trim level 4.5 years with zero problems. When my wife suggested we get a Soul, I'd avert my gaze whenever we drove by one. BUT, then we went and tried one out and it was too obvious it was the correct car for us. We are seniors and this car is excellent for that group of people. I haven't driven any other vehicle which provides such a high level of visibility. Easy to get in and out of and the seats don't pinch old butts. I am so happy the trim has kept all of the features we like and added more like lane follow assist.

First I want to say I really love your review style. You two have great chemistry and deliver information in an enjoyable and pleasant manner. Keep it up! The Soul seems like an interesting vehicle and a great value. It packs a lot of style, features, space, and practicality into a small vehicle for a good price. I'm not a fan of the huge protruding grill, but the overall design is interesting and fun. I'm impressed with how Kia created that digital instrument cluster. For a budget design, it looks great and is easy to read. The Koreans are really killing it with design and tech these days. It's hard not to find them appealing.

Soul's have a fairly unique, endearing "personality" combination of being frivolous, yet practical. I've rented Kia Souls 4x, great little car for a couple on a road trip. Ingress & egress, functional, comfortable interior, great visibility, and reasonable comfort. Only negatives were a somewhat choppy ride and mediocre MPG. Reminds me of another favorite rental car of the past -- the Chrysler PT Cruiser! I might have purchased the last gen Soul EV if they had brought it to the USA. Instead I got a Kia Niro PHEV.

@rickrydgren1824
@rickrydgren1824 Год назад
I've often thought of the Soul as an "urbanized" compact car. When scouting for our daughter several years ago, I noted that the suspension on the Soul did not absorb bumps well, and gas mileage on the highway is hampered by the boxy shape. Still, a lot to like if you are mostly driving around town on smooth roads. P.S. - she is petite and ended up with a VW Golf, upper trim level; she really loves it.

I’m always impressed with Andrea's knowledge and logic on vehicles. I drove several 2022 Soul's and was impressed by the refinement, fit, and quality of this car. Shutting the door is a vault like solid sound and I felt it had good power. But in the U.S. the stereo on the EX was terrible and to go up to a better stereo would have been thousands of dollars for the next level. Also felt the GT top level should had offered extra horsepower.

I fell in love with the Seltos look and performance upgrades from the 2023 version at first I was also wanting to go with the Kia Forte 2023 Gt Limited. but overall all 3 cars look great! what's your pros & cons on them & what u prefer? like I know I'm not gonna be driving a mustang or corvette or Camaro but I need something that will handle going to work home driving at nights from work or days and it's pretty much highways back n fourth as we live kinda far like 30 - 40 mins from work & also winter snow performance I wanna make sure I'm driving something handy & good for bad weather ya know? :)

We owned the first three generations of Kia Soul and loved them. Totally reliable. Incredible interior space and class-above content in a 164" long package. But I was always bummed that the fun colors only come in the lower trims. I'm with Zach about the DCT - I disliked it. That and no AWD is why we moved to an XC-40. I wish Kia would deliver an AWD BEV Soul to the USA, but Kia seems to be on the "keep it cheap and basic" path with the Soul. The Kia Soul is the official city car of Asheville NC and the state car of Florida. They excel in the city. I find the new trims completely confusing. The marketing team must have been stoned. The one negative about the Soul - heavy depreciation. As a guy who gets a new car every 2-3 years, it's actually cheaper for me to own a loaded XC-40 R-Design T5. Doesn't seem that could be true, but it is. I'm guessing it's all those fleet Souls flooding the market.

Depreciation isn't an issue for me this is my last vehicle. I keep all vehicle for a long, long time. Just ditched my 2000 F350 because I couldn't get up into it anymore (or I'd still have it).

My brother has a RAV4 and he could not believe the difference neither could his wife.

@@evanlandry9503 I agree. I also feel an 8-way power passenger seat would be a class-exclusive. Not sure why they think we don’t care about fancy features in a subcompact.

I love the SOUL and will be getting one in 2024 if they are still making them. I don't like the Seltos at all, so if there's no SOUL next year I'll probably look elsewhere or grab a new 2023 if one is available then.

Such a weird decision to exclude ventilated seats in the US considering overall it's warmer than Canada and would be a very, very welcome feature in the south and southwest states.

Thanks for the great review. One point raised in a viewer question that wasn't addressed, though, was about the ride quality and how it compares to that of the Seltos. From what I've read, both the Soul and the Seltos have mediocre ride quality which is a show stopper for many buyers, myself included. In fact, Consumer Reports gave them 2 out of 5 ratings, which is the lowest they gave any car in that category. I would test drive each thoroughly before buying to see if you can live with the ride quality, especially if you live in a city full of potholes and poor roads.
