The 2015 Kia Soul represents the second generation of this compact car with a distinctive boxy design. The Soul offers two engine options: a base 1.6L inline-four with 130 horsepower and a stronger 2.0L inline-four with 164 horsepower, both paired to a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmission. The 2015 Soul is front-wheel drive. Available in three trims – Base, Plus (+), and Exclaim (!) – the Soul impresses with its high-quality and spacious interior, and an extensive list of standard features. Notable equipment includes Bluetooth, satellite radio, USB port, and a six-speaker sound system. The upper trims offer a 7- or 8-inch touchscreen with Kia's UVO infotainment system, navigation, and a rearview camera. The Soul also did well in safety ratings, with the IIHS designating it a 2015 Top Safety Pick.
