Kia Soul 2014 review pictures

The Kia Soul is a chunky-looking SUV crossover with a practical interior.

The Soul rides on the same platform as the Cee'd hatchback.

With a boxy body the Kia Soul has good interior space.

The first generation Soul never really hit it off in the UK.

The Kia Soul is offered with a 1.6-litre petrol or 1.6-litre diesel engine.

The boot is a good shape and size.

The Soul offers great rear-seat space.

The dash is a bit dark, but the design is fresh and interesting.

An automatic gearbox is an option.

The Soul's petrol engine isn't turbocharged and so isn't very economical.

The 1.6-litre diesel doesn't get the same fuel-saving technology as some models.
