Gimme some funk and Soul: the family's Kia Soul EV review.

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 มิ.ย. 2024
- The Soul EV (or e-Soul, depending on your location) is the e-Niro's sibling. A bit more striking looking: some would say ugly, some would say beautiful; definitely interesting. The life of the party in fact. If the e-Niro is wearing a smart shirt, the Soul EV is wearing bright shoes, a fancy belt and probably some sort of hat made out of fruit.
Something I desperately needed was a thesaurus as I used the word funky ten times to describe the Soul. Just for the sake of clarity, I mean that in the British way - stylish; cool; modern - certainly not in the American way - smelly.
Opinion is so divided on the look of the Soul, I suppose you could use whichever definition you prefer.
What can't be denied is that it delivers a fantastic range, decent power and a distinctive look at a relatively good price point.
Something I couldn't test was the UVO app which allows you to check your battery state of charge, start air conditioning etc. Apparently it's very good when it works!
Whether you'd want this or the e-Niro is the question and I hope this vid will help you make up your mind.
To be honest, my wife couldn't really make up hers, but watch along and tell us what you think.

We need more Flavia reviews, she’s awesome and so straightforward honest “looks like one of those funeral carsa”! More please! Maybe Flavia EV?
Even when Flaviana is saying something positive, it still sounds somewhat disapproving. Lover 'er!
This time out Mrs EV's opinions are a bit more candid, but no less succinct and definitely useful and appreciated. She also continues to exhibit her great taste and effortless style, lovin' those Vans slip ons !!
Thanks for the review. Really enjoyed the “family review” as it lends more to the whole situation. And you have to admit, Mrs EV does not mince her words. Also enjoyed the same style when looking at the model 3, so I think you’re better as a team, unless you start doing 911’s on a race track etc. But I would n’t have thought that would be your next project ! Good vibes.
Great practical review of the Soul EV.
I like Flaviana’s candid comments.
Thanks Andrew .. good to see your review
Interesting seeing this review. Part exchanged our 3 year EV3 Niro for a Niro Demo from Eastbourne and now have a Niro EV4. Superb vehicle with the many updates
Love the family input.
Thanks Family EV for the review. !! You worried too much about the use of the word 'funky', I think the word 'niro' was mentioned much more! I love my Soul EV, fits our needs well and yes, it is quite funky. Can't wait for a review of the fiat 500 ev.........
Like these reviews, very enjoyable and they give a really good perspective.
Blue/black looks nice, wish Kia did more/brighter colours on the Niro & Soul.
What a great Kia Soul review, magnifico!
Flaviana’s reviews are hilarious. She certainly doesn’t beat about the bush! 😂
@Raphael Mohammed err.. what..?
@Raphael Mohammed oh hang on, I get it; using TH-cam comments for spam, right? Awesome 👏🏻
The HUD prediction and reaction was the best part.
Good review supported by your family, very good ✅🇮🇹thank you
Thanks for mentioning you used to live in the country, I was starting to get a bit confused skipping through your videos! 😊
My Soul EV arrives on 5 March - I’m ridiculously excited 😀 Chose it because it is so cool looking. The Niro is just so traditional looking. Black with red for me - love the combination.
You can actually slide the booth shelf down (I left the polystyrene organizer in the wheel well though) It buys you some space, having the cables bagged and somewhere with the luggage is slightly better imho, since having luggage on the shelf wouldn't allow you to access that space anyways... It's a brick on wheels, but I honestly love my e-Soul (the original tyres are rubbish though)
Another great review Andrew and Family, please do a review of a Skoda Enyaq when one is available , as I’m thinking of replacing my Niro phev 3 with one., so any info would be great
The Skoda place is just down the way from the Kia shop. 😉
I bought my Roomster from there back in '13 would love my next car to be the Enyaq (pigs must fly or I need a lottery win but maybe in a while) so a review would be great. Thanks for showing us around Canterbury having been locked down so long I'd forgotten what it looked like! Great review as always and lovely hearing the whole family's veiws.
Nice video! FYI, the eSoul is based on the same base as the Kona Electric, so it has a shorter wheelbase than the eNiro, which makes the rear passenger room of the eSoul shorter as well as the trunk depth, but it does have more headroom.
I agree that the design is cool but would like them to be more adventurous with the colours available. You do need as you say some funky colours.
I used to have a Renault scenic Monaco which was a brilliant car, so versatile and was in what we called Kermit Green, we loved it.
Very detailed and helpful. Thank you.
Great review. You have a lovely family. Trivial comment. We have a niro the same as yours. To stop the cable for phone getting bent push it through the little hole at front of centre console and put phone in there. I put my phone on as a wifi hot spot sometimes. That brings up on the car screen charging points and their status. Its OK but not great. Do you know if that works in continental europe?
We purchased a 2019 Kia Soul EV last year, and a 2020 on this year (ours is white great for keeping cool on those hot summer road trips), we love both cars and especially the 2020, made a number of 2000KM trips using available 150KW chargers and the trips were flawless, great range even at 110 to 115KM/hr, great car in tech, spec and drive ability!
Love the family review. Black is indeed... unfortunate. Good to see the HUD in action
Thanks for the review, Andrew. I do like the styling of the Soul but would buy the Niro. Based on reviews I have seen on the Soul, the one thing it does seem to excel at over the Niro is the sound system so I guess it is marketed at the young.
I didn’t get a chance to test that properly but I’d be surprised if it’s much better than the latest e-Niro which has fantastic audio. The Soul has Harman/Kardon where the e-Niro is JBL although I believe they’re two different brands from the same company?!
I love my Kia Soul. I like to be high. Make me feel safer.
Went with this over the e-Niro, in part because the boxier shaper makes the trunk (I'm Canadian, sorry) more space efficient, and because of the HUD, and the higher sitting position, and the short wheelbase making parking easier, and because of the funkiness!
BjØrn's banana box test shows that the high ceiling mostly makes up for the trunk being shorter front-to-back.
I test drove that blue soul, --we hated it nothing like our old soul, it was a diesel Soul shaker in cream with cream interior. The test car was too claustrophobic inside- we much preferred the Nero! so went ahead and ordered the 4+ in Blue, However the colour of a car, both inside and out make a huge difference
Agreed. I’ve also ordered the 4+
Great review.
Think the HUD is superb. And the Soul is not your normal average boring shape ! I find it fun...!
Hi, I’ve just found your channel and have subscribed.
I’m seriously considering the eSoul as my next drive.
I’m with your wife on the colour, the blue is for me. Reminds me of the Italian football shirt colour of italia’90.
Where is your wife from? My wife is from Puglia (FG) in southern Italy.
Great review.
Greetings from Cumbria in the U.K.
stay safe a well.
Thanks very much! My wife is from Rome. I've not been to Puglia although I've drunk most of the wine produced there I think!
27.18 please push "live" button to see update charging station position
What a funky review.
LOL! Was the HUD sound part of the specs when they were designing the car?
Sounds like something is lifting the whole car up
Very Thunderbirds!
*Andrew Till / Mr. EV* Really ! Awesome and good stuff Dear...♦♦♦♦♦♦
I really like it, I really like the quirkiness of it.. Sorry funkiness if it.
I must be the only one who thinks the front view looks like Iron man to me
That’s so true! They should do a red and yellow version.
32:45 I got a right angle usb C cable for the phone to fit in the Niro's charging pad. There should be a right angle lightening cable for the iPhone. No roof rails on the Canadian Soul EV.
Mrs. EV has to try the eNiro 2020. New display, UVO App an 11 kW AC charger.
The 2020 and newer model is vastly better than the 2019 and earlier. However, this review is of a 2020 model (or newer) model.
Interesting review thank you- families views always interesting - sorry you had to move out of the country 😕 not for long I hope?
Thanks, Leo! Long story short, we went to the country to see if we preferred country living. (We do!)
Andrew Till / Mr. EV hopefully you can move back out to the country soon?
A review with Mrs. EV is never boring. But just to spice things up, I think you need to do some more Tesla reviews. Just make sure to wear a helmet when you do.
That Kia soul ev looks gorgeous from the front, love the quirky boxy looks too,much better looking than the niro, think they do a burgundy red colour with black roof option too,I'd take either blue with black roof or red with black roof, perfect car I like, hopefully next car for me in 3 years time after current PCP finishes,🏴👌👍
If there's one thing I learned from this review, it's that this is a funky car.
"your location" wont be imported into NZ :( I want the yellow one.
Seen the skoda enyaq and the e2008 GT both look very nice and the skoda has a very good range and space.
I agree. The Enyaq could well be the first real competition for the e-Niro.
Hey, l must be getting very defensive! The boot is of course smaller than the Nero, but! With the rear seats down it's boxy shape make the space very usable, Bjorn got more banana boxes in the Soul than the Nero & the same as the model S & Etron, which are much bigger cars. As you can tell l do love my Soul.
In Ireland, it DOES have front parking sensors! No plastic trim on wheel arches or bottom of doors, though!
Luck of the Irish!
@@MrEV In Canada we have two trim levels for the Soul EV. The UK version is somewhere in the middle of our two trim levels. Weird!
Give the little lady her big mac 😊
I have a kia soul ev 2020 neptune blue and black roof got one of the first to arrive in UK I love my car and the colour is amazing
My review on it being a family car my partner has 3 young girls all requiring car seats with 3 young girls and my partner I can fit all of them as passangers in my car however one of the car seats must be in the front seat. Car gets roughly 250 miles per charge in Scotland at moment not sure on winter.
That’s great to hear!
Flavinia is really sitting on the fence here! :)
I like it most in the blue and black roof
Very engaging video. I wonder how long it took to edit?
Point of interest, for any ev, should be, "can you get a bike in the back of it without removing the front wheel?". Apparently you can in an E-Soul.
Can you store the parcel shelf under the boot floor?
I am getting a 2nd ev, and have decided to get an E-Soul ex-UK (I live in NZ, and they are not available new here). I considered getting an e-Niro but the base model here, despite $78K price tag (approx £39k) doesn't even have heated seats or steering wheel and there's no heat pump. You have to pay another $10k for these!!! So I expect the Soul will offer me much more car, for much less cost than the Niro.
The space in the boot I think I can live with ,even being a cyclist, as I know people can get a bike in the back easily with the seats folded, Not so easy in the Tesla 3, but possible. Just. And then there are the usable roof rails rated upto 100Kg load.
The additional benefit of the flat back to the car is it will apparently accept a rear-mounted bike rack if you need more space, and want to take more bikes.
So, in your next reviews, why not include the "will it take a bike?" cargo test. 👍
I love my 2015 Soul EV+. It is my primary short distance (35 miles one way) vehicle. I can get a decent amount of stuff in the back with the seats down. Would prefer if the lower back seat flipped up against the front seats so that the space was flatter for more cargo. It is not a good highway vehicle, much better range on backroads and it is not suited for long road trips with more than 2 people. Adding a roof storage system would greatly increase drag an so shorten range.
I like the lime green!
YES! Thank you!
Hi Andrew. If you were going to buy a new EV today, would you go for the brand new kia e-niro4+, tesla model 3 LR, polestar 2, VW ID3? Choices are getting more interesting now.
Good question! The e-Niro is still the best value in my opinion but what would I buy personally? Polestar 2 probably. It’s a stunner.
The (possible, not definite) issue that intrigues me on the Polestar is how they deal with data collection. It has full Android, and I haven't been able to find out where your data goes and how it's stored etc. If it goes to Google, that immediately rules out Polestar for me. That is an issue with electric cars in general anyway, for some reason manufacturers seem to think "EV" means it's got to be connected and you buying EV gives them free reign to collect your travel information and whatever else they can glean from meta data.
Tell mrs Till, i think front looks like baby Range Rover & Rear looks like 90's Volvo Estates...
I like it. Also Let her know you can wrap it in any colour she likes!
Hi Andrew, enjoyed this. Soul much better looking than the Niro. When is your video comparing the Niro v Tesla Model 3 coming out ???
I had my mini-stroke when I still needed to film some extra bits in the e-Niro so it’s still a little way off unfortunately. A full Model 3 review will come first; the comparison shortly(?!) after.
@@MrEV so sorry to hear that.
@@MrEV Bit taken aback with that snippet of info tbh, would like to echo all the best wishes you've had and just say take care of yourself and your lovely family, that's all that matters in this mad world, everything else is just fluff, seriously, it really is !
Type 2 not 11 kW?
MY20 (in NL) does 11 kW on Type 2 (well mostly 10.4)
I replaced my red fiat 500 with a new blue Soul last week. Loving it so far. Would be even better if they left off the suv pack and did it in red.
Great! Red would look pretty fantastic.
I also love Flaviana's candid comments and the Italian accent! I drive a Soul EV 2020 as my daily car and love it. Range, comfort and height brilliant boot space ok for me (fold seats down when I play golf) Looks?? Well no oil painting but I like being different and not a Euro Box.
Car companies should employ your wife before committing cars to metal...seriously!
That's great to hear! There aren't enough Soul drivers out there which is a shame as it's a great car. Surprisingly spacious with the back seats down.
So classy!
I have a blue e-Soul with black roof, like the one you saw in the dealership showroom. I personally love that color in combination with the overall shape of the Soul. I chose the e-Soul over the e-Niro simply because the Niro, in my opinion, looks so bland in comparison and that I don't need that extra amount of boot space. The e-Soul is a fantastic car and super fun to drive!
Great to hear!
Will you review The Ford Mustang Mache E? Far better looking with a 370 mile range. That's the one to buy..
I drive the E SOUL DURING ONE YEAR. THIS CAR IS SUPER!! The best car I ever drive. Mine is white with red roof. Buy this car and every day a big smile on your face. NEXEN TIRES ARE NOT GOOD.100%=555 km.
I also have a e Soul here in VIctoria BC Canada. I totally agree that this is a great car and have been driving it since Jan 2020. I also agree that the Nexen tyres are crap and will be changing over to either the Michelin Cross Climate Plus or the Nokien WR G4 as it rarely gets below zero here. My wife drives the e Nero and she loves her car. On the topic of boot space, being able to lower the floor allows me to take my bins to the recycle depot for garden waste without issue. Both are great cars, but I have the 'Soul'.
I have chosen to have the Nexens swapped off before I even collect the car. Adds a few hundred to the bill but I got a good deal by selling the brand new Nexens back to the dealer for stock. Dont want a car I can't trust to not put me in a hedge. Replacing with Good Year Performance P2's
I have a Soul EV and its perfect for me. its just me and sometimes the dog. so its like having a long range van with folding back seats. plus i can sit in the back unlike most compact cars.
That’s great to hear. The Soul is a really underrated car.
what do you use to record your audio?
I just use a Shure MV88+ mounted to an iPhone. I use a RODE lapel mic for outside shots which is just recorded on a standard dictaphone. Fairly low tech!
i think this video you should show to flaviana again about your lease is up video :)
Give me ‘fart mode’ over the pop-up hud any day. ;)
Nice car for tight city/town spaces, and dragging kids in and out of, with all their paraphernalia. We see Souls and Niro’s around and they look great...same for the Kona.
But Mrs EV keeps saying she prefers them “big, tall and chunky”, so why not hang on for the Y? And you have the supercharger network for those road trips.
The Y will still have the issue with no dashboard which she had a real problem with in the 3. I’ll see if I can convince her, once we can test drive one!
Her heart’s set on the X, really. Just got to win the lottery first.
@@MrEV Yes, the X is an impressive car, and there are a surprising number of them around. My wife took a shine to it.
I heard that kia eniro gives more range in real world than e soul despite having the same battery on both vehicles; How correct is that?
So close that it is barely worth referencing according to WLTP. Real world? - I'll let you know when I get mine next week.
Great review, Mrs EV is great, side view nice rest of the car ugly.
5.53.....questo che ee? grande!
That video was .........
Funky 🤣
I’m never saying “funky” again! 😃
I really don't get why they had to print a plug on the charge port flap, unnecessary and ugly. It's one of the two negatives I've found on my eNiro. The other is that the regen lever is fixed to the steering wheel and not the shaft so it's often in the wrong position .
That’s such a great point about the regen lever.
The ev soul is a bit like me not beautiful to look at but it has many endearing features, the fact that it is higher gives me an air of superiority which my wife also likes as she is only 5 ft 4 and a half inches, also the visibility is great there are no front small windows like I had in the leaf which obstructed my view from the right, but I did prefer the shape of the leaf, but overall I think that the e soul is much better designed , it feels like they have thought of everything, I chose the e soul over the e Nero because I didn't see like the shape of the e Nero it looks like someone with a gumshield.
I love your wife's way with words, looks like's a herse, LOL.
Flaviana's remarks are priceless and honest I presume. Maybe you should cut the video in smaller bits.
Maybe the Skoda Enyaq IV will be a car that Mrs EV might like.
Maybe... I’ll be showing her all the upcoming EVs in a video soon as we need to choose our next car!
@@MrEV I'll be interested in watching that. I'll be looking for a new car for next March and would like it to be an EV. Love your videos.
So is it a test drive or have you swapped it for the e-NIro?
No, the e-Niro went in for a service and my dealer very kindly agreed to give us the Soul EV for a day.
Andrew Till / Mr. EV That’s very kind of them. I’m getting a courtesy car when my Renault Zoe goes in to try and fix the clicky boot nose. I wonder if I’ll get an EV? Renault really only do the Zoe.
@@TheBeggFamily There’s always the Twizy! 😃
Andrew Till / Mr. EV Not seen one at the dealership I go to, but they could have one hiding round the back. I’m sure Christine would love riding in that (in the rain!).
Niro EV (eg, 64kWh version) not available in the states still... Kia holding them off... likely they may arrive here in next year in 2021...
I’m torn between the eNiro 4+ and Skoda Enyaq 60 or 80. Kia is tried and tested vs untried but attractive and larger Skoda???
Funnily enough, I think we’ll end up being in the same boat when our lease ends in April. I’m not sure I fully trust VW Group to deliver the goods actually. The ID.3 issues (software not working, only four seats in the large battery version...) doesn’t give me much confidence.
The Enyaq seems like a great package though and a surprisingly good price.
Not much help, sorry! I’ll go through all the e-Niro competitors in a future vid with Flaviana.
Andrew Till / Mr. EV The Enyaq 80 still has 5 seats. Just checked specifications. I know what you mean re software but at least they can remotely update improvements.
I had my mind set on the ID.3 as far back as when I bought my e-Golf - which I loved. In the end I changed it for a 70-plate eNiro4 which was available from stock - ordered and delivered within a week. My VW dealer couldn't give me a date when I could even see an ID.3 in the flesh! What finally decided it though, was the interior of the Kia. It has physical switches and buttons and a much more traditional feel. The look of the ID.3 interior and dependence on touchscreen controls put me off. All down to personal preferences of course.
Julian Reeves I’m most likely to agree with you on switches and buttons. Working a screen whilst driving can be a good thing no matter how advanced the system is. I spoke to my local dealer and they had been advised the Enyaq was more likely to be end of ‘21.
Good family review 👍 but unfortunately far too many adverts I'm afraid 👎
Got this on order, pick it up next week. I did have an eNiro on order but cancelled it to get this. Reason? - (a) I find the eNiro to be too boring. Yes , the counter argument is that the Soul is 'divisive' in looks but I like that. My sister made the comment that she used to work with the most boring man in the world and that she could picture his car being an eNiro.
What else. Well (b) I can get in now. (c) I can get it for 32k, which is 4.5k less than the eNiro 4+ with few compromises on spec. (d) higher ride height. (e) HUD, which I love.
£32k, how so ? £34295 inc the grant according to the Kia website.
Your sister’s comment is brilliant!
@@no-oneman.4140 shopping around, multiple enquiries. There's one on Auto trader advertising at 32.5k. Happy for people to keep paying 34k for them though, keeps the resale higher.
@@Richard-io9xe - ah thanks for that. Interesting, whenever I've made enquiries on these new cars available for immediate delivery, turns out they are 'ghost cars' and they then ask me if I'm interested in ordering a new one. Having read there's a long waiting list with Kia and Hyundai for their ev's, I believed them. I'm obviously not reading the correct updates.
@@no-oneman.4140 I think around 2,000 Souls came into the country earlier this year and as long as you dont want blue, there are a few stock cars still available on quick turn around from Kia stock. The blue ones have all gone so the only ones on Trader are the dealers showroom model. But if you want white or black, both with red roof, then you could get it in 2 to 3 weeks. Depends if you are prepared to travel. I'll happily go anywhere in the country to save another grand - worth the day out.
I can see a move back to the countryside on the cards.
That’s the plan. Hence the “for sale” board!
@@MrEV I'm in the process of doing the same.
Blue is nice. Although if it had had a red stripe down the side (just below the door handles) you'd have got a more "A-Team" look.
For doing some running around, taking items to exhibitions/competitions (plants/artwork/ etc) I think it would be great. I have a feeling that it might be a bit of a let down on a road trip where the bigger internal space would be better.
I'm wondering if being higher up means your view out the front is apparently closer to the road but not actually that different to the Niro?
Knobs. I do wonder if the Tesla has gone too far in moving all the controls to the touch screen. (I may have to start using the voice control instead.)... so I'm quite liking the more traditional knobs and buttons here.
Talking of the Tesla, "Fart mode" is a once only joke. Flaviana hasnt missed anything really.
Have you tired the ID3 yet ?
Not yet unfortunately! I’m getting a lot of requests though so hope to soon!
Loved the blue color on the one at the dealer. I do not particularly like the box style of the Soul. Prefer the Niro ever though it is kind of boring looking.
Fear is the word for the family review, if I were the car maker. Coffin bearing car ... love it. I meant the comments.
We looked at several EVs including the Niro and decided on the Soul because the Niro was way too "normal" for Seniors! :-) So we have had the 2020 Neptune Blue Soul EV for a year and it is the only car that always makes me smile when I go to get in. Some other observations. I just finished a year of complete stats of charging it and the real range in Canada for me is between about 470 km average in summer to around 300km average in winter. We bought it because it is higher therefore easy to get in and out. With the boot floor in the lower position we have found it is fine for our lifestyle - our dog has a "seat" that raises her on the back seat so she can see out of the window so she likes it too. UVO is fine but a bit slow to load - nice for pre-heating or cooling. BTW we have cooled front seats too, but alas no roof rails - there is a roof rack that will fit but it is very expensive. It does have cup holders in the back arm but curiously no easy pull to reveal them. HUD shows not only speed and limit, but blind spot warnings and navigation if being used. My HUD does have correct speed limits but is sometimes out of date. We changed the tires for All Weather Nokian WR G4s and they handled our winter well and great on the dry roads. My stats will help us see if there is a range penalty but up to now any differences are more likely to have been caused by weather and terrain than different tread patterns and compounds etc
Thanks very much, Geoff! Some great info there.
The Soul EV has a face, that only a mother can love. I think the (my) Niro is a way bettet looking car.
If la Signora EV likes boxy cars with funky vibes, you might eventually get her to try the Honda e... That would be an instant hit.
That’s the plan!
@@MrEV La Signorina EV should be convinced too. After all it’s a 🐼-mobile.
Honda e has about half the range of these Kias...
@@be236 and quintuple the charm
I too have a foreign wife who looks disapprovingly at most things I have and do, but she clearly loves me or wouldn't hang around. Is this just a fact of life with cross culture relationships? I get my Honda e this week... I should probably do a similar video for giggles.
You should! Although I honestly can’t see how anyone couldn’t love the Honda e.
@@MrEV Honda e's range too short...
@@be236 it's only too short if you intend to drive it a long way. We still have a Volvo V70 for utility.
@@davidcoveney By this time, I would think that 200 mile range would be the minimum for any new EV to market... but I guess for those that really only use for in-city driving, that Honda e may fit the bill. Here in "the states," we have a lot of land and road to cover...
@@be236 I suspect there's a reason why it's not being sold in the US :-)
Ultimately, a car is engineered for users and their uses. I wouldn't suggest a Honda e as suitable for everyone - it most certainly isn't. But it's been great for the school run, local shopping, errands and so on.
Maybe if the hud were a nice piece of glass or cut crystal I might warm to them but a scratch prone piece of perspex is just umm, no!
Yea Family EV
Why design a space for a spare wheel, when you've no intention of putting one in there! Should've designed it for more space
Flinstones Car 🤣😜
Mrs EV : "The longer it is, the less I like it" ... Phrasing ? ;-)
I prefer Kia Niro EV's body shape better than this Soul EV (as they are called in "the states")... Also, I dont like all those round borders around the center console, the round border around the buttons on the steering wheel, etc.. too much "roundness." On the other hand, I do prefer the higher riding height of Soul EV, and its front charging port door looks metal / solid, compared to Niro EV's plastic charging port door...
Mr EV take a trip in the backseat. I just did...damn noisy! Your kid won't be happy MacD is not allways around the corner ;-)
The HUDs needs to be bigger ...
Niro looks 100000times better
My wife calls them a portable loo. So that means I cant get one.
That’s harsh!
John 3:16 for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life🥰❤
9:40 these bits are red on some models. Stupidest thing I've seen. Would put me off buying a used one with these red areas. I personably find the Soul one of the more ugly cars on the road. From the side it resembles boot-runner footwear. The light running around the back I'm not fond of. At least in black the rear window panel of metal is hidden. I also dislike this detail. TBH some parts of that car look almost deliberately ugly in way.
