The Kia Soul is a medium sized family car. Like many Kias, the Soul is fuel efficient and relatively cheap to run compared with other cars of its size. The Soul is spacious inside and can seat five adults comfortably, even though the length of the car is relatively short. This makes the car a simple one to drive and park, which in turn leads to a positive overall driving experience.
