2015 Kia Soul - Best budget compact car!!!
The kea Soul is deceptively compact, you cannot believe the space available inside the cabin. Even for a family car this vehicle is the best value out there. No more scooting your seat up to give your kids room, no more paying for 15 MPG. This car is fun to drive and equally as fun on your wallet.
Story
I find myself looking at the fuel efficiency gauge all the time and find my driving is more conservative as a result. Sounds like a win to me.
Pros
This car is one of the most attractive on the market. The vehicle comes stock with alloy rims, no matter what trim package you get. Even as a base vehicle the features are convenient and intuitive. Such things as the built in Bluetooth and the usb and music player inputs are great. The sound system is decent and feels like a great match for the cabin size. The car came with window tint as well. The car also features different steering modes for steering wheel responsiveness for when you are in a parking lot compared to the highway. The gas consumption is great. The listed specs were 24/30 ... (more)
Cons
The only con is that the driver window is up kind of high, so if you are someone who likes to roll the windows down and hang your appendages out you may not find it comfortable for that as the arm rest is about a foot lower than the window. Trunk space is limited as a hatchback.
2015 Kia Soul - Kia Soul: Economical and stylish
I went out on a whim and gave into the commercials about this vehicle. I was in need of a new vehicle and wanted something economical and stylish. The 2015 Kia Soul delivered on its qualities mentioned in the commercial. Unfortunately, it did not come included with the adorable hamsters, and I did ask.
Story
The Kia Soul is awesome. It is very compact and easy to maneuver. You can even park in compact spaces.
Pros
When you go look at these vehicles you are given a choice as to what color. This model comes in various colors. While there is a basic model that still has amazing features, there is also a more luxurious sporty model for those that want more power to the amenities. The main pro about this model is that it is economical, and it comes with an economy button with let you cut some horsepower to save on your gas even more. The Kia Soul give you the best sound system experience that gives that surround sound effect. This model is very roomy and as a crossover, lets you get more space with a fol... (more)
Cons
One of the major cons I found was that it does not come with a spare tire. You have to spend extra if you want one. Another con is the hatchback style door. It completely flips up and when you are carrying tons of groceries you have to figure out how to lift your arms all the way up to bring down the door. Also if you are not careful and do not pull down all the way, the heavy door lifts back up and you risk hitting your chin.
2014 Kia Soul - Best car for the price
I bought this car because of its low price and size. Other cars in the $14,000 range do not have nearly as much space in the back. I can carry five people and all their stuff easily, and do so on a regular basis. I also live in a snowy area so having a manual transmission has been nice. The front seats are angled more like truck seats which makes driving long distances comfortable. The stock stereo supports Bluetooth and sounds great even at high volumes. The front also has tons of headroom, even someone who is 6'5" had no issues driving. The back seats fold down pretty flat and I am able to sleep laying down in the back if needed. That may be my favorite thing about this car, as I do a lot of travel and end up car camping a lot.
Story
I have traveled all over Vermont in this car and use it to car camp in wooded areas. Due to its height I can get deeper into the woods then most compact cars. Would be a great car for an outdoorsy person.
Pros
Great mileage, very roomy, great headroom. Lots of storage, handles well. Is very cheap for such a nice car.
Cons
The only two drawbacks I can think of are that the ride is not as smooth as more expensive cars and it is also not as quiet. This tends to not bother me as I always listen to music.
