Hi Ginny, another great review from you! I love the idea of an EV car, I bought a nice Audi A4 Avant new last year, but find I’m not using it, the tax is over £500 a year (first few years), it’s a mild hybrid 190 hp diesel, so not great economy round town ( about 37-39) so now I’m retired, I find I’m not actually going on long trips, and a diesel needs that? this little Soul’ sounds just like the answer’ no tax, charge at home, roomy enough, great range, like the funky look (blue is nicer) so because of your presentation, I have my test drive this Monday, can’t wait!! so thanks Ginny! Keep it up’ and keep safe!! XX💗
Good review I like it I think it looks like a bit of a mini Land Rover from the front, it's different and that's s good thing, can see what you're saying about that widescreen would take some getting used to, I believe the older versions of these are also very good option especially for a second car but the government and manufacturers have got to sort out the infrastructure and help people with the cost if they could install a home charging port for a low-cost then evs would take off a lot more. Also regarding the wind noise if everyone starts adopting the Honda mirrors surely that will cut down on the noise and improve aerodynamics👍
People complain about *boxy*, but an upside is improved visibility. Seeing out of the sides & rear of those "swoopier" designs is frequently more difficult. We leased the 2016 and liked the car. 2020 looks even better; esp. the range! Paddle shifters are stupid, but it looks like an "industry trend".
I like Marmite and the Soul. a very good review. I ma liking electrics more and more, as you help show the range and driving characteristics of the vehicles. Thanks.
Great review Ginny. Thanks for that. Quick question. Do the rear seats fold to make a flat cargo area with the back area, or are they elevated somewhat like the gas powered Soul? We like a flat area for our large doggie.
The horsepower and torque come from the electric motor (single, dual?) which is powered by the battery. Most manufacturers recommend keeping your ev plugged in if possible (not just when you need a charge to go somewhere). Good charging stats. Doesn't appear to be available in the states until the 2021 year model?
7:48... hoping for a range of 3000 miles for somethiing like a Tesla Model 3, and 1000 mile range average for regular EV using solid state (but less) batteries...

Well presented and slick camera work

Really don't like marmite but l do love the Soul! Thanks for a very professional video, the drone pilot did well with all those trees about.
Just to note: changing to bridgestone quiet track tires makes the car very silent. The stock nexen tires are much noisier
Great review. It’s concise but conveys the right amount of information.
I drove the previous model l, petrol 2.0l version and it drive really well.
It's Ginny from escape to the country!

Great review, love the look of this, just hoping I can afford one by 2030! Also fabulous road for the demo 👌
Ginny nails it again , should have been on Top Gear ! Service intervals are the same on mosts ev , s longer ?? 2 years
The South Koreans really have nailed the range on their ev's. Great car 👍
I like a honest review like this. 👍

Can't buy a new Kia ev in the states! Bummer!
Great car, too bad with the short service intervals(15000km). But small car? It looks huge next to you :)
What's to service ?

Both the 2020 and 2021 Soul EV have come out in Canada, but neither have come out in the U.S. yet. Weird.
1.7 tonnes?
Like for camera setups.
Fingercross 2021 version get launch soon in US so I can purchase it🤞
Where can I get the sweater?
It doesn't look nearly as boxy as Nissan Cube or Kia Ray. It is not that boxy.
How is a box eco friendly, depends on what its made from.
I'm waiting for the'R' edition.
nice kia electric....
Does this Chanel mean that carburetor doesn’t exist anymore?
carbuyer?
Oli Hudson a very big youtube chanel for reviewing cars

Love the review but what's the point of going environmentally friendly if you're gonna kill animals for the seats?
They're not real leather.
