Introducing the new Kia Soul

In America, Kia's cubic crossover is really popular, so it's no surprise that Soul's third generation was introduced in Los Angeles. It comes with three versions right away, but only the electric version comes to us. The shape of Soul has hardly changed, but the designers have come to the detail. On the car's nose, the split lamp is very striking, which can also illuminate with LEDs. And the grille has grown enormous, which of course is covered with a polished element for the electric version.

The car grew a bit, its wheelbase was more than 3 centimeters, so it was 2.6 meters long, and the car was 5.6 inches longer. At the same time, it remained a compact crossover with a length of 4.2 meters, a width of 1.8 meters and a height of 1.6 meters. The X-Line offers a more elaborate look with unpolished plastic elements and up to two-color finishes. The sporty line is represented by GT-Line, which is only available with a 1.6-liter turbocharged petrol engine, with a power of 201 horsepower and a 265 Nm torque. The other engine is a 2-liter, four-cylinder suction pad with 147 horses. The muscular, turbo version is available with a 7-gang double-clutch gearbox, and comes with 6-speed handhelds from the other variant base and a stepless automatic gearbox. The electric version of the e-Niro technology inherits the Kia Soul EV. The Korean electric crossover has not been reported, but in the sister model, this drive chain is 204 horsepower, with 395 Nm of torque, and a battery pack of 64 kWh and lightning. Its range is probably just over 480 kilometers.
