Korean manufacturer Kia is trying to invent a whole new breed of motor vehicle with its Kia Soul model.
Many may be tempted by this experiment enough to take on a Kia Soul car lease. They would certainly be getting a truly innovative model.
It has the style along with the practicality of a more conventional super mini, but has the practicality and space of an SUV. They call it a ‘Urban crossover’.
Its boxy shape means it is much roomier than its rivals. They’ve also taken lessons from cars like the Fiat 500 that allow customers to personalise. There are 11 paint finishes, four interior and fabric options and a whole range of details and add ons available all offset by large 18inch alloy wheels.
It has a class leading 222 litre boot, bigger than many cars twice its size. Two sizes of engine are available to lease customers a 1.6 petrol and a 1.6 diesel, almost every test comes out in favour of the oil burner, but neither give much punch in any conditions. There is also a hybrid in development but no date for launch as yet.
The Soul rides well has plenty of grip, light and precise steering and is comfortable over most road conditions.
It all adds up to a car that will appeal to many looking for lots of space in a small package.
