    Just bought the 2023 model. My first Kia. I’m very surprised by what you get. It’s a nice bargain and is well equipped. Has a little bit of guts, too. A great option for people on a budget or who just need a practical car, which was my reason to purchase. Glad I did.

    This is an awesome base model. I reconnected with an old friend today who apparently works at Kia. He hooked me up really good with an 2022 LX they have on the way coming straight off the truck. Coming within the next 10 days! Great review man!

    Excellent review, especially with the drive: viewer feels almost like he's there, and you've addressed most every aspect of the driving experience. The audio and video are super, and most important, your enunciation is perfect and overall there's none of the nonsense you get with some of the RUclips reviewers, which gets old pretty quickly when you're trying to gather information and run into entertainers. As for length and information presented, there's a certain limit reached by a review that I've come to appreciate. Even some of the very impressive reviews get into diminishing returns for my needs, which mainly are to cover the most ground and mainly just get on with it. Best regards.

    The IVT on the Soul lets you choose an 8th simulated gear in manual mode, where the engine turns only 2,100 rpm at 70 mph, down from about 2,800 in drive mode. The 6-speed manual 2020 and 2021 Souls also turn 2,800 rpm at 70 in 6th.

    @IntoTheLightAstrology 2 года назад +1

    Super review... you covered a lot of stuff. I have a 2021, thus the same except for a couple of aesthetic deets. I do have a few corrections and comments, as an enthusiast:
    * I've never seen one without the KIA emblem on the hood! That's unusual, maybe a pre-production sent out by mistake.
    * Headlights: this is a mind-blower, they vary on the model. On the LX the high beams are in the lower section along with the low beams, and the upper section has the blinker and a sort of day-running light, maybe called "parking" light. But in upper trims the headlights are up top, and a much cooler LED (I think) daytime running light!
    * Likewise the climate control has auto on upper trims, but like you, I so prefer manual that it is one reason I went with this entry-level model.
    * There are a number of upgrades by model level, such as the 10.5 inch infotainment screen once you go to the next level.
    * 1st comment: while you didn't mention the manual shifting, it works really well, and adds both a fun factor and a practical one when you downshift for braking. Just tapping the shifter to the left "S mode" (to enter manual shifting) seems to do a similar thing as "Sport" mode, raising the revs and keeping them higher before shifting, but it has no effect on steering.
    * My thoughts on the gas cap door: it seems like a nice safety feature that it can't be opened from outside.
    * Oh yeah (maybe you mentioned?) there are the same sort of hydraulic "shock-absorbers" for opening and keeping the hood up, which is not typically found on economy cars.
    * The 0-60 ratings I've seen are around 8.5/8.6.
    * If you drive with an easy foot and no sport mode, gas mileage will well outperform estimates, however you can't measure it with the MPG stats on the car's readout, it doesn't measure the loss of start-and-stop, resulting is very skewed figures. The more short trips you do (or use the engine cut off at stops feature) the wider the discrepancy between the MPG's it reports (higher) and what you'll get using the old fashioned measuring method.
    If you want to amend any details, as you may know, you can edit the video to add clarifying text, though none of my points are critical ones...

    Just bought my second soul last night. Love the kia soul but because they are so lightweight they do not hold the road too well in the snow. Kia needs to make an awd soul. Lots of room, easy to get in and out of and so much fun to drive. Owned 3 kias now and just keep coming back to them!

    • @WTFCRLT1
      @WTFCRLT1  2 года назад +5

    • @leecowell8165

      AWD knocks your mileage way down. I live in FL so I don't need it. I'm impressed with this vehicle maybe that's why I see them everywhere. Can't believe this vehicle only weighs 2800 pounds.

  • @coolcars555
    @coolcars555 2 года назад +3

    Two things you missed: tilt/telescope steering wheel and manual transmission mode where you move the shift lever to the left in drive and moving the shifter forward will hold each simulated gear (and it is quick) plus downshifting is very handy (just move shifter back)…one person commented on this mode and said there were 8 forward gears, my 2021 LX only has 7. Thanks for the review!

    • @IntoTheLightAstrology
      @IntoTheLightAstrology 2 года назад

      I'm thinking you should have your transmission checked, since the 3rd generation Soul came out (2020,2021,2022) all of the IVT models have the same 8 simulated speeds.

    Thank you so much for your review!! Long story short; I had a vehicle and then I didn’t. I looked for a used vehicle around 20 to 22k. I didn’t find much that I liked. I decided to check out the 2022 Kia Soul and found that the pricing was very comparable to a used Kia. They sold 6 by the time I got to the lot an hour later. Crazy!! But I was able to quickly see one before I left. I went out looking again today for any and all vehicles. I was near the Kia dealership and decided to call them while I was getting the $$ at another lot. They didn’t have any but told me that I could come by and put a deposit on one. I drove over and they had just received the Kia Soul that I wanted. There were people there so I told the salesman “let me go ahead and put a deposit on it. I didn’t want anyone to snag it before I did. So I didn’t get a good look at what I was purchasing. Your video gave me something to see and I thank you! I was getting a bit worried. It’s getting really hard to find anything affordable right now. Again I thank you for showing me what I’m picking up in the morning. I’m super excited!! Not a fan of freeways, which I’ll be on for the first time in this car… but Uber excited!! Thank you for the tour!!!

      @@nevets68 I have a 2016 no warning and premature engine failure 87,000km. I can afford to drop a new engine in it but I won't, I consider myself lucky that mine never caught on fire. What I will do is tell everyone I know about Kia👍✌️. Ps, even though the engine is toast, I just got another call from my dealership that there is another recall...yah, I've moved on already.

    As a mom, I'm looking for a car that has a backseat that will accommodate different car seats as my child grows; and, air conditioning that will cool the back seat. There's nothing worse than having a car that doesn't have backseat cooling with a little kid stuck in a hot car seat they can't get out of. I need 4-door. I need enough room for a stroller in the back; a travel bag. C'mon Kia. Can you help?
