I rented one while on vacation for 10 days racked up about 1200 miles this car did great going up and down steep hills drives and breaks very well. Drives very smooth and was surprisingly spacious and good on gas definitely recommend 10/10
My mom used to hate these, but she ended up renting one and now, she loves them
I just upgraded Monday to a 2021 Kia Soul LX after driving my 2011 Kia Soul+ for almost 12 years. I am definitely loving it so far. Thanks for the review!
Thank you VERY MUCH for this awesome review. I’m going to be buying a new 2021 LX in a few weeks or months I bought a new 2015 Kia Soul years ago it is my daily driver as I only drive my Mustang on nice days. There are many versions of the Soul but I want a base LX as a daily driver. so much value in this cars! Basically comfortable reliable economic transportation again I’m going to watch your video a few more times.
This must be the video of all time. “ there’s your drivers seat. There’s your passenger seat. “
I was thinking the same thing! 😂
For me it is lol. I can understand it hell lol
My favorite is "there's your front end"
Just drove my 2020 kia soul lx from ocean county new jersey to Nassau County new York today very pleased the way it drove!!! Round trip was over 200 miles when i returned home
I have 23,000 miles on my 2020 Kia Soul X-Line and just had it serviced. They checked the piston rings and did a program update on my car’s computer. No issues and it’s running like a champ. Will definitely be a repeat customer. 🇺🇸 🇰🇷
Great review! This helped a lot, keep it up.
I have a 2021. That drivers seat was all the way back. Probably for the 6' 3" reviewer. So the 6' 3" rear passenger space looked pretty tight. PLENTY of head space too. The Soul is a great 'all-around' compact SUV. Utility is it's middle name. My first automatic Soul, you don't even know it's shifting unless you punch it. Real quiet too. Best value on the market. Deals galore because the Seltos is entering the market with AWD. Just buy an extra set of wheels with good winter tires and you can go anywhere an AWD can go with 'all season' tires.
Very happy with my 2020 soul lx base model good gas mileage and very comfortable on long rides
How's the transmission
I am obsessed with the Kia Sportages at the back bro and the sorento I WANT BOTH OF THOSE CARS THEY ARE SO PRETTY
Great review, basic kia soul is plenty of car for sure!
I love my 2020 LX with the 6 spd standard. It handled recent iced out south Texas rather well as I travel across San Antonio to my hospital job. Plenty of room and fun to drive. 1st to 2nd gear is pretty clunky though
Glad to see you're okay. That storm tore Texas up. :(
i literally had a mental breakdown just now and watched this review and you cheered me up. Just got this car, I love it, the only reason why I had a breakdown is because it wasn't the car I was looking at lol. But thank you very much for doing this review and liking the car.
ClarityDavid, I hate when those mental breakdowns happen
Kim is that the car you bought?
Can you even put a rear spoiler on this model?....... not feeling this design.... I’ll keep the 2016 I still have!
I have a 2020 kia soul lx with less than 19,000 miles on it i just love it!!!!!
Heard bad things about the transmission on the 3rd generation. Any issues?
@@scorpiocara6798 not at all
@@christopherhasse7183 that's awesome!!!!!
How r the blind spots????
@@scorpiocara6798 well now I have less then 27,000 miles on it! Still love it? The blind spots are no trouble at all!
You are lots of wisdom... telling us where the drivers seat was and then the passenger seat.... LOL
I just recently purchased one. Awaiting for delivery😊 I am very excited especially to see the gas mileage. I’ll be using mine to commute two hours to and from work.
Two hours???? Why so far
Scorpio Cara i believe it’s an hour to and and hour from work but i may be mistaken
@@larryhadalittlelamb two hours to and from😊
@@scorpiocara6798 money😩🤦🏾♀️
@@KimSoMe00 congratulations on the big money! Lol
Kim let me know how you make out!
i hated the boxy look of the soul’s but this 2021 with the rounder design.. i’m really considering buying one 😭
I had a Honda Element back in the day. Considering the Soul as my next ride once my Accord needs to be retired.
how about thier sound system, speakers???
They’re okay, but I’d definitely recommend getting premium speaker as an option or switching them out aftermarket
From watching most of these reviews, the later models (2013 - 2022) seem more reliable than there predecessors. I used to discourage my wife from buying the Soul when she loved em 11 years ago, now I won't talk her out of buying 2022 LX even though I wished the base model came with LED headlights and multizone AC control. 🤔👀
If you live in a winter climate, you don't want LEDs because they don't generate any heat. HALOGENS MELT SNOW, LEDS ALLOW IT TO COVER UP YOUR HEADLIGHTS.
Is cvt engines any good?
They’re straight I reckon.
We have same car2021EX having oil consummation problems. The engines have improperly hardened piston rings my wife's car using over a quart of oil per 1400 miles
How much is it supposed to use up after 1400 miles. Is that a really bad thing
What's causing that problem n can it be fixed n for how much
Numerous owners say KIA won't fix it until the engine blows.
How’s the suspension?
Decent. Waay better than previous models in my opinion.
@@NothinButCarReviews Are you serious with this answer?
Yeah they put a lot of seat room in that car that's true lot of head room so that's when you're sitting by the side of the road with your engine locked up you're comfortable
Y is that happening n how often
I really love to have this car, but the video put me to sleep! LOL!

They have to make head space for tall people like me.

Yeah these dealers are all the same I hate the salesman they're your buddies when they're selling it. After they sold it to you it's your baby they don't want to talk to you when you have problems especially engine problems tell you people saying how good your cars are all I love my Kia Soul lift up the hood check the oil how do you say how good this thing is
Wheel cover
Nice color *
Wow, you can just reach into the back door. Either you are very tall, or the car is very small
He said he's 6'3"
@@texaswildflower7715 I know, it was a joke.
How much is that car?
$18,000
Got my 2020 LX 6 spd for 14k
@@GhostOfAMachine how
@@NothinButCarReviews 18,000 is a good price. I’ll consider one once I get out of school
What aggravates me is any manufacturer can make a mistake this happened to be the heat treat on the piston rings that's not the problem the problem is the dealer tries to blow this off so they don't have to do the repair and this is the expensive repair and they know you women out there aren't going to check the oil in these cars at 3000 4000 miles you take it to the dealer and have them change it and you think everything's good while the dealer ain't going to tell you if it's losing oil or not that's up to the operator that's your job open the hood check the dipstick put it back in the hole pull it out see where the level is that's up to you that's the operator you're running it that's your responsibility and their responsibility is to replace the motor if it's using a lot of oil that's their problem that's not your problem
How much is it to fix that problem n do you mean when u buy the car bring it up to the dealer so they can fix it b4 u buy it?
It's a 2020.
Okayyyy 6’3 🤪🥰😋😌
Exactly
Yeah they're always mean to government at the dealership because they can get away with it it's different when a man goes over there with a problem they never give me a problem over there LOL
Thank you for driving normally.
A lot of these, the people are redlining the thing all the time.
See that red car he's advertising their do you hear it running it sounds like a diesel that's because the piston rings are scraping the cylinder walls big time it's shaving off the metal as it sitting there running after they put a new motor in it it'll be a good car if they fix the ring problem Osmond's beautiful now 2021 ex but after they put the engine in it replace the engine imagine that replace the engine on a brand new car and the bad part about that I looked all through the compartments in their the glovebox the armrest and everything and I didn't even get a pair of chopsticks with it
I hope I cane save someone a. Problem. The car is good but the engine is bad. I don't enjoy hanging out at the dealer if you do buy one
Have the dealer change the oil then start checking it at 500 miles and 1400 miles to see where the level goes if you're not checking the oil you're clueless what the motors doing you have to monitor your own engine oil the dealers not going to do it for you but when they change it and the filter the full mark driving 500 check it see where it's at if it's going down drive it a thousand see where it's at check it and if it's going down take it back to the dealer and some hay this thing's use an oil they got to do something with it they made this problem they sold you the car they need to fix it
Now what happened?
BO-ring. I have a 2005 Scion and it doesn’t look much different
And don't let him bullshit you until the store that's normal oil consumption and that's in the normal for Kia for those cars to be doing that well it's not normal and if they're using oil like that it's either going through the valve guides or the piston rings they don't want to do this job because it's a lot of work in the material for the job with the motor and the gaskets in the front cover and everything is about 37 hundred bucks but if you don't check the dipstick yourself and take pictures of it with your cell phone then your lost you got to keep a paper log of this thing to all the times you went back to the dealer and if they can't get any satisfaction they also have a lemon law little Lemon Law attorney and go after them
I can't believe they're trying to sell this piece of junk on the internet with the motor grinding away and they're trying to sell this thing unbelievable that's why they're trying to unload this car probably somebody traded it in because it had a oil usage issues
I am going to post on every site and video untill I get answers from this company who does not take care of customers if you want to stay in business you will out an engine in my car you will be out if business soon kia mark my words
Yep they have ring problems we just had engine replaced
@@jimtohmas898 after how many miles? How much did that cost? Any other problems
Fix your engine problems
Who cares about all that garbage your wheels you got steel wheels are aluminum wheels who cares they got a sunroof you got power windows who cares fix your motor problems you got ring problems with that car fix the customers cars that you sold and when they come back with customer issues because your piston rings weren't hardened correctly you give him a hard time it's not their fault it's the junk you sold them fix the problem
Furst!
Kia garbage, has a recall , engine can blow , bad piston rings
All cars have recalls basically. Even the new Toyota 2.5 engine was seizing up on people.
That's horrible
agree
That car is no good engine problems
