A decade after the trend of small, cube-shaped vehicles faded away, the Soul is still alive and well. The third generation gets some minor tweaks and Kia’s new logo for 2022, while the centre touchscreen goes from seven inches to eight inches. The four-cylinder engine in gas-powered models generates 147 horsepower, while the all-electric Soul EV attracts eco-minded drivers with either 248 or 383 kilometres of range depending on the battery.
