This car is a real bang for your buck! For a second to lowest trim Kia Soul… it has a massive touch screen, fully digital gauges, 8 way power adjustable drivers seat, keyless entry with remote start, gloss black trim, etc. this car has lots of the features our RAV4 Prime has, which is nearly three times the price of this Kia.
5-13-23 became aware the acceleration can be slightly surprising. Around 25-30 mph (shifter in automatic sport mode), entering highway acceleration was more than expected. After driving 2023 KIA Soul 1,500 miles wasn't aware the vehicle had more capability.
I just traded in a 19 Soul base for the 23 Soul EX. It's my 3rd Soul in the last 12 years. I like them and have had good luck with the Souls. I don't find the 2023 Soul has all the storage compartments my previous Souls had though.
So the only diff between lx and s is remote entry, power start, and 10 inch info screen. I'd rather stick with lx for the price. I don't care about keyless entry, push button start, or bigger info screen
exactly same here. this trim level doesn't have LED lighting avail either so why mess with it? Also is blind spot detect standard on this? No its not this car does not have them I didn't notice the little ICON on the top outside of the mirror.
They have actually, they have replaced all ignitions for free, plus this one is remote start so that never applied to that issue. Tighten your game up dummy
The kia soul is only good in turbo which gives it 201hp and 2022 was the last year kia offered it. I have a 2022 kia turbo loaded and it is a blast to drive....the 142 hp 2023 stinks...
I was yelling on the floor when you couldn't find gas cap release lol. Have a 2019 soul right now I might trade in get this model later this year
Lol, the 2023 is awesome. This isn’t my car so I don’t know where every switch is.

Exactly
Isn't the Rav 4 an awd?
A Rav-4 costs $55,000? Nope. Why lie?
The S trim seems pretty nice tho i prefer the gt line or ex but the s is a good basic trim
Agree
Kia Soul has excellent room and visibility. To open the Gas cap cover there is a small lever on the floor next to the driver's seat,.
Agree and I know now.
Assuming it's a CVT...Clicked Exit right away.
The only CVT’s that are unreliable are Nissan XTronic CVTs.
Very nice car u have I’m thinking about buying a 2023 soul as well. How much did u get one for?
This trim starts at $22,390 but options may vary pricing

Interesting
"...I have no idea what it is...". If that's true, WHY should we waste OUR time watching this? I've seen and heard enough.
Ok
had you taken your time and inspected the car first, you would have know the gas release is located to the left lower driver side by the seat
Yea I did still wasn’t able to find it
Gas cap release should be on the floor. Right infront of the driver seat, left side. Atleast that’s where it is in the older models
Ok

If you don’t need all those features, get the LX if you wish.

I really don’t like Kia Soul’s but this is nice considering the trim and price!
Yep
Chase adds NOTHING with "yep".
Has this one been STOLEN yet? It's a HUGE problem that KIA hasn't been able to fix since last fall.
They have actually, they have replaced all ignitions for free, plus this one is remote start so that never applied to that issue. Tighten your game up dummy
This one has push button start so it doesn’t have the problem and it’s a 2023 so it was fixed by then.
I when for the Toyota Corolla Cross Hybird.
When I have a chance to
I don't really like that Kia soul it doesn't look nice sorry for that
I respect your opinion
Looks better than my 22 chevy Trax.
But you watch Kia Soul videos? chooch
@@jliefer2484 no I don't
Can you put off toad tires on it?
I really don’t know why anyone would off-road a soul but maybe
The kia soul is only good in turbo which gives it 201hp and 2022 was the last year kia offered it.

Agree
I really enjoyed this review, man! Good stuff! And you probably didn’t intend this, but this makes for pretty decent Asmr as well lol
Glad you liked it! I’ve seen the ASMR and very satisfying to play around in cars.
You're a terrible presenter 'cuz you obviously don't do your homework prior to turning the camera on.
