2013 Kia Soul is one of the best selling Kia models in North America, the car is small and very popular. Especially young people, to find support and reasonably priced compact cars.
Its striking design with an eclectic mix of curves and edges makes the small car in the SUV look very independent, so speak with us but not to the taste of the masses. This is especially the front end with its muscular appearance and the futuristic-looking LED daytime running lights that stuff out well apart from other vehicles in its class.
Also on board are, among other things, ABS, ESP, six airbags, automatic climate control, smart key system, including the start button, fog lights, electric windows front and rear, cruise control, an RDS radio with CD player with MP3 compatibility and 6 speakers, power steering, a rear parking including rear camera, an onboard computer, part-leather seats, a light sensor, an ambient lighting in the front doors, a front armrest, electrically adjustable, heated and foldable exterior mirrors, LED daytime running lights, LED taillights and 18 "alloy wheels.
The interior presents itself very fashionable and quite sporty. The black and brown dominate the interior and it fit well with the small car in the SUV look. Especially the brown / bronze metallic colored inlays on the center console, doors and steering wheel enhance the interior on this lot. Good processing and compliant materials as convincing as the many practical storage and the logical arrangement of all controls. The only negative attention are the center air vents, which have only a very limited range of adjustment.
Been very generous is the space available for passengers. The Kia Soul offers to its 412 cm length enough space on all seats, even for tall people. Failed is quite small, only the trunk, its normal size equal Kia did not mention in his records. Only the maximum capacity with the rear seats folded is given as 818 liters and creates acceptable ways to transport of bulky goods. A pretty fun gimmick are illuminated in different colors rings around the speakers in the front doors, with which the soul wants to emphasize its youthful charm.
Power was supplied with our test vehicle, the proven 1.6-liter CRDi turbodiesel engine that has an output of 115 hp (85 kW). Its maximum torque of 260 Nm the engine delivers 1900-2750 rev / min, which is already equal to the start much force.
Especially in combination with the fine 6-speed automatic transmission can be moved very pleasant to the soul. The gears are changed smoothly and quickly. Those who wish can also sort the gears via shift stick itself. The engine does its work to start and under hard acceleration though quite grumpy, but provides acceptable performance from. In 11.7 seconds from standstill to 100 km / h and it is up to 174 km / h.
Even when overtaking and in the intermediate sprint of the motor can persuade, but this is not the most economical for occasional retrieval performance. Specified by the factory 5.9 liter are hardly attainable even with the most tender foot on the accelerator. In our test, the soul has indulged in around 7.5 liters, so he's not one of the masters of his saving class.
Quite the taste of Europeans, however, hit the gear, which is quite a sporty, yet offer lots of comfort. Despite his construction of the Soul is perfect on the road and offers high safety reserves. He can also move dynamically in city traffic thanks to the lightweight but very direct power steering and also offers despite the visually quite small geratenen windows all-round visibility. Housed in the interior rearview mirror rearview camera, not has the largest representation, but it is nevertheless very helpful, and the picture has a good resolution.
Despite its compact dimensions, the Soul is recommended not only as an agile city car, but it is also a good companion on long distances, which is not only due to the pleasant spring, but also the length of the vehicle in relation to the large wheelbase.
The Kia Soul 2013, He is certainly one of the secrets in the Kia range. With compact dimensions of the Soul offers lots of room for passengers and a very complete equipment. The high seating position and maneuverability make the Soul in the city an ideal companion who can convince thanks to the powerful engine but also outside the city.
The performance may well inspire long-haul driver, only the sound insulation could be better and the trunk volume slightly larger. If you want to stand out from the crowd is with the soul also doing very well. Its unique design and good price / performance ratio should speak for the little Koreans.
