What’s the 2024 Kia Soul like to drive?
These extra-small crossovers treat you to an agile performance, making it easy to navigate a crowded highway. And the Soul’s steering provides excellent feedback, letting you know exactly where you are on the road. These crossovers also come to a quick stop, boosting your confidence even further. From inside the cabin, you’ll enjoy smooth-riding comfort. Every Kia Soul treats you to a balanced performance, with both enough power to get you going and money saving fuel economy (earning up to 35 mpg city). Every 2024 Soul features the same powertrain:
- 2.0L four-cylinder engine (147 horsepower, 132 lb-ft of torque)
- Continuously variable transmission
- Front-wheel drive
Unfortunately, all-wheel drive isn’t available for the Soul. If you’re looking for a small crossover that improves traction on wet roads or light trails, we recommend checking out the Kia Sportage or Seltos!
