Kia Soul
The 2025 model year could very well be the last for the Soul, this boxy hatchback that some prefer to view as a city-oriented small crossover with front-wheel drive only. Since the battery-powered Soul EV is no more, customers have to settle for a four-cylinder gasoline engine producing 147 horsepower. Inside, cargo room is impressive given the Soul’s diminutive footprint. Finding an excellent driving position is easy and the seats are comfortable.
