With its unique shape and exterior styling, the Kia Soul is one of the most distinctive vehicles on the road. However, the 2024 Kia Soul is more than just its looks; it’s also comfortable, high-tech, safe, and functional. Let’s explore some of the features that make this crossover SUV so special.
The Soul is known for its unique, eye-catching appearance, and the 2024 is just as boxy, bold, and fun as ever. It comes with 16-inch steel wheels, a black grille with silver finish, and a shark fin antenna. This all gives the Soul a uniquely sporty look. For an even more athletic silhouette, the GT-Line trim adds 18-inch alloy wheels, a two-tone roof, glossy black mirrors, and a power sunroof.
The base model is available in several exciting exterior colors:
Higher trims add in other options, such as Neptune Blue, Surf Blue, and two-tone paint options.
The distinctive boxy shape isn’t just a branding design feature; it’s also functional. It gives the Soul much more interior space than some other vehicles of the same size. It can comfortably seat up to 5 adults, and with its 101 cubic feet of passenger room, everyone has ample head and foot room.
The added space in the top of the vehicle also allows the Soul to have a higher seating position, which gives the driver a better view of the road and other cars. The front seats can be manually adjusted, providing for a more customized height and adjustable leg distance. The Soul comes with either gray two-tone cloth or black cloth seats. It has remote keyless entry for added convenience, and higher models also have Smart Key and remote start.
The Soul has 24.2 cubic feet of space behind the second row to store your gear, and the wide liftgate gives you easy access to it. If that’s not enough space, you can fold the rear seats down. With both seats folded, the total cargo space goes up to 62 cubic feet. This provides plenty of space for carrying groceries, luggage, and sports equipment.
With the 60/40-split folding seats, you also have the option of only folding down one seat for more flexibility. This is helpful for days you need to transport both passengers and gear. The GT-Line has a hidden cargo floor for even more storage space. In addition, all models of the Soul have the following storage space to accommodate your small items:
The Soul features an infotainment system with an 8-inch touchscreen display, fully digital instrument cluster, and 6-speaker audio system. Its Bluetooth wireless technology and smartphone compatibility mean that you have access to your phone’s music, apps, and navigation through your car, and you can control many of the functions through your steering wheel-mounted buttons. Simply plug your phone in using the vehicle’s USB ports.
Higher trims offer a 10.25-inch touchscreen display with built-in navigation, Kia Connect, and SiriusXM satellite radio. Higher trims also offer wireless phone charging.
The base model 2024 Kia Soul comes with a 2.0L 4-cyclinder engine capable of generating 147 horsepower and 132 lb-ft of torque. This is paired with an Intelligent Variable Transmission (IVT) for a smooth, responsive ride.
The Soul is a front-wheel driver SUV, and it comes with Drive Mode Select. This allows you to adjust things like your transmission, engine, and air conditioning to accommodate your needs and driving conditions. For example, Eco mode is designed to conserve battery life.
The Kia Soul isn’t just fun to drive. It’s also loaded with safety features, making it the ideal vehicle for your journey. It has airbags throughout and rollover sensors which deploy the side airbags and tighten seatbelts in the event of a rollover.
The Soul also has multiple features design to keep it stable even in challenging driving situations. For example, Vehicle Stability Management can help you with steering and regaining control of the vehicle on slippery roads. Hill-Start Assist Control helps keep you from rolling backwards if you have to stop your vehicle on a hill. Other important safety features of the Soul include:
The 2024 Kia Soul comes with Kia Drive Wise Technology, which is a suite of safety features designed to make your drive more intuitive and less stressful. The base model comes with Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection, which uses sensors to monitor the area in front of your car. If needed, it will put on the brakes to avoid hitting a person or another car.
Driver Attention Warning monitors your driving and lets you know if it senses you need a break. Other driver-assistance features you’ll find on the Soul include:
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance, Lane Change Assist, and Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist are available on the base model and come standard on higher trims.
