Kia Soul

Automobiles

The Kia Soul is a subcompact crossover hatchback that Kia manufactured and marketed from 2008 to 2025 across three generations. It had boxy proportions, a tall roof and five doors for five passengers, and it was offered only with front-wheel drive. Kia showed the Soul concept in 2006 at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit and presented the production car at the 2008 Paris Motor Show, aiming at buyers aged 18 to 35 in North America. The second generation arrived in 2013 for the 2014 model year, and the third followed in 2018 for the 2019 model year. A battery electric version, the Soul EV, was offered between 2014 and 2024. The name is a homophone of Seoul, the city that hosts Kia's headquarters.
