2018 Kia Soul
Versatility and Style as Unique as You Are

After a considerable refresh for 2018, the Kia Soul is now the most stylish, safest, and best value it’s ever been.

Inside, you can now get into the driver’s seat and start your Soul without fumbling for your keys thanks to the available Smart Key system with push-button start. Select models feature automatic climate control and either a 6 or 8-speaker Harman Kardon®premium audio system with available sound-reactive speaker lights.

An 8″ multimedia interface with navigation and both Android Autoand Apple CarPlay smartphone integration is available, as is AM/FM/MP3/satellite radio, Bluetooth® hands-free technology, USB and AUX inputs, and dual high-output USB charge ports.

Due to its unique layout, the Soul provides you with an abundance of cargo space within its rear hatch – with standard 60/40 folding rear seats offering a flexible addition. With all seats in the upright position, you still have 1,402 L (49.5 cu. ft.) of space available, but with the rear seats folded flat, you open up a cavernous 532 L (18.8 cu. ft.) that will hold just about anything.

The 2018 Soul is now available with a lively, turbocharged 1.6L GDI engine and a quick-shifting 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. Shift into reverse, and you’ll benefit from a wide-angle view of everything hiding behind you right on the Soul’s multimedia display with the available rearview camera.

You’ll always feel safe in a Soul with active safety features like Vehicle Stability Management, Electronic Stability Control and Hill Assist Control constantly monitor road conditions so you can stay the course with ease. Those wanting even more piece of mind can order a Soul with the new for 2018 Kia Drive Wise driver-assistance technology. Here’s just a sample of what it can do to help keep you safe:

  • Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) works independently of the driver in critical situations, applying the brakes to help prevent or lessen the effects of a frontal collision.
  • Forward Collision Warning System (FCWS) provides a warning message and chime to alert you when rapidly approaching a slower moving, braking, or stopped vehicle.
  • Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) is a camera-based system that monitors the position of your vehicle within its lane and helps warn you if it deviates, or is about to deviate, from the lane.
  • Smart Cruise Control (SCC) is a radar-based technology that helps you adapt to changing conditions on the road and maintain a safe distance from vehicles in front by automatically slowing or accelerating your Soul when needed.

The Kia Soul defies easy categorization. In fact, it’s been surprisingly effective at being “all things to all people”: safe family people mover, edgy urban adventurer, efficient commuter. The Soul can truly do it all with fun and infectious style. Call to arrange a test drive and discover just how well a Kia Soul can fit into your life and lifestyle as well.
