Reviews were so helpful for me back in Sep '19 when making my purchase for a car that could fit my family of 3 (soon to be 4) and be a good commuter vehicle for my job. I want to repay the favor after almost half a year of owning my '11 Kia Soul Plus. I've owned Saab's, Mazda's, Saturn's and Toyota's in my 13 years of driving. The feeling of reliability/durability I get driving this thing is on par with my wife's Camry. your gut just tells you it's going to run forever. I should add I purchased mine with 90k and am not at 100k yet. Thus, I am not sure of the longevity of these vehicles but it's a solid start so far. Though on the outside it looks relatively small, you don't feel like you're in a passenger car the moment you step in (probably because of high ceiling). If you need a car for projects and transporting items (washer/dryer, treadmill, etc) don't count this car out. With the ability to put down the rear seats it can fit quite a bit. A huge highlight of the Soul is it's MPG. I drive 60% city 40% highway. The car always reads that I'm about 30mpg in total. You just can't beat that. I drive a 5-speed btw. The + edition is approx 140 HP but nonetheless it's fun even if it isn't full of pep. The only con I can spot in the 6 months I've had it is the highway noise. It's not deafening and with music on you won't notice. However, with no music you'll defi hear a hum (but that's really not a break it deal issue for me). I wouldn't say the stock stereo is as good as the hype but I've put in a custom 8" woofer and plan to switch out the speakers soon as well. Lastly, these things are affordable man. I got a steal of a deal and paid around $3,800 I think. Look hard enough and you'll find a good deal :) If we ever have 3 kids, sure, we'll probably need to upgrade size wise but with a family of 4 this car is perfect size. Hope this helps!
Love our little gas sipper

We have had our Kia Soul since Jan 12 and it is a 2012 model. So far we are more than pleased with this car. The fuel economy is good , there is ample leg room, the ride is not bad. Do wish it had an arm rest but this is a small thing. I love the idea of all the air bags it has. It gets lots of attention !

Quite Pleased With my Soul Sport

I have a 2011 Soul Sport. With all the options but remote start. The car drives and handles great. I drive about an hour to and from work each day. The car has decent pick up so I'm not a nervous Nelly when attempting to pass some traffic. I wish the seat had a bit more functionality. It's taken me a bit more time then typical to find my sweet spot. The seat doesn't go back far enough so, anyone taller than around 5' 11" may have an issue with space. I'm 5' 11" and the seat is all the way back. The Tilt wheel is nice but Telescopic would be best. I love all the features of the car. Over all, I love the car. I traded in my Dodge Magnum R/T. It was a serious change by no regrets. Saves on Gas!
I love this car!!!!!!!!!!!!!
