The 2013 Kia Soul belongs to the first generation of the compact hatchback. Available in three trims — base, Plus, and Exclaim — it provides a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine with 138 horsepower for the base model, while a more potent 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with 164 horsepower comes with the other two trims. Both engines are available with a standard six-speed manual or six-speed automatic. Unique, boxy styling, spacious cabin, and practicality make it a popular choice among urban drivers. Key safety features include stability control, antilock brakes, and a full suite of airbags. Notable cabin tech includes Bluetooth, auxiliary inputs, optional navigation, and Kia's Uvo voice-activated control system, which was added for the 2013 year model.
