2023 KIA Soul LX

The 2023 Kia Soul is a boxy subcompact crossover that prioritizes interior space and personality over rugged capability. It competes with the Honda HR-V, Toyota Corolla Cross, and Nissan Kicks, offering a more distinctive look than any of them. The Soul feels eager around town, with light steering and a compact footprint that make it easy to park and maneuver in tight spaces. Inside, the Soul offers generous headroom and a tall seating position, plus a surprisingly roomy cargo area for its footprint. Standard tech includes an 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, with available upgrades like a 10.25-inch display and wireless charging. Its 2.0L I4 makes 147 horsepower and pairs with a CVT, delivering 30 mpg combined in front-wheel drive.
