An Overview of the 2016 KIA SOUL 

• Soul Adds Style and Convenience with Two New Packages
• Forward Collision Warning1 and Lane Departure Warning1 systems round out a new Premium package
• Soul gets extra dose of style thanks to new Designer Collection that dresses it up with a two-tone paint scheme and other unique elements

IRVINE, Calif., Aug. 6, 2015 – The extremely popular Soul ups its “wow” factor for the 2016 model year with a host of new style and convenience features, some of which actually debuted on the K900 luxury sedan. In addition, owners can further express their unique individualism through a new Designer Collection that plays up the Soul’s fun-loving attitude with a two-tone paint scheme.

Three unique trim levels (Base, Plus, and Exclaim) remain, and each one adds new features for the 2016 model year. Alloy wheels now come standard across all models. Meanwhile, Base models equipped with the Convenience Package add a 4.3-inch color touchscreen, SiriusXM®2 satellite radio, and integrated Rear Camera Display3.The standard features list grows for the Plus model, which now gets gloss black bumper

“tusks,” fog lights, and integrated Rear Camera Display3. A new Designer Collection package, inspired by its all-electric sibling, brings new style with two visually striking two-toned color combinations: white with a red roof, or red with a black roof. In addition, the Designer Collection also adds 18-inch alloy wheels with black spokes, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel and gearshift knob. 

 The Exclaim now comes standard with leather-trimmed seats. Also new to Exclaim is the Premium Package, which elevates the driving experience with desirable convenience features including Forward Collision Warning System (FCWS)1 and Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS)1, both of which are new to the Soul. The camera-based LDWS helps to monitor the Soul’s position and provides visual and auditory warnings to the driver when the vehicle begins to drift too close to the lane markers. Other creature comforts that come as part of the Premium Package include navigation4, an upgraded Infinity®5audio system, string-LED front speaker surround mood lighting, a panoramic sunroof, ventilated front driver and passenger seats, seat heaters for all four outboard positions, a 10-way power adjustable driver’s seat, a leather-wrapped and heated steering wheel, and a leather-wrapped gearshift knob.

The optional interior Umber Color Package, which is available with either the Shadow Black, Titanium, Fathom Blue or Cloud White exterior colors, now benefits from HID projector headlights for the 2016 model year. Also included with the option package is premium Nappa leather seating surfaces and door armrest accents.

Motivation for the Base Soul is delivered by a gasoline direct injection (GDI) 130-horsepower (at 6,300 rpm) 1.6-liter all-aluminum DOHC four-cylinder engine. The GAMMA engine produces 118 lb.-ft. of torque at 4,850 rpm. The Plus and Exclaim models enjoy the more powerful 2.0-liter NU power plant with GDI technology. Power is rated at 164 horsepower at 6,200 rpm and 151 lb.-ft. of torque at a 4,000 rpm. The 1.6-liter engine is mated to a six-speed manual transmission or, optionally, to a six-speed automatic. The Plus and Exclaim models are available exclusively with the six-speed automatic.

Kia Soul Named Active Lifestyle Vehicle of the Year! | Keffer Kia Mooresville NC

What better way to enjoy a more active lifestyle than with a car that suits that lifestyle? Take the 2015 Kia Soul for instance, which was recently named the Active Lifestyle Vehicle of the Year, for the third time in a row, at the 11^th annual Active Lifestyle Vehicle awards. The 2015 Kia Soul is a fun and funky urban passenger vehicle that is perfectly suited to a fun and funky urban lifestyle.

Nina Russin, founder of the Active Lifestyle Vehicle program, noted that the Soul’s “cargo area, [which is] versatile enough to meet the needs of triathletes, cyclists, skiers and kayakers,” was a huge factor in being chosen this year. That with the Soul’s compact frame, easy maneuverability, style and design made it a clear stand-out over other candidates.

The Active Lifestyle Vehicle of the Year is chosen by local media and athletes, who rated the Kia Soul the best in the urban category in static and dynamic evaluations. Unsurprisingly, the 2015 Kia Soul is one of Kia Motors America’s best-selling cars, with more than 115,000 units sold already this year.

Thanks for the award (again)! We are so honored that the 2015 Kia Soul was picked as an Active Lifestyle Vehicle for this year, and Kia will continue on in our efforts to make the most attractive and versatile vehicles, suitable for all drivers and lifestyles.

Accessorize Your Soul To Fit Your Lifestyle

Available Kia Soul Accessories

The Kia Soul is all about practicality and individuality, and how do you make an already unique car stand out even more while also making your life easier, you accessorize. Rather than Soul surfin’ the internet for just any items and accessories that are cheaply made or don’t fit, check out the available Kia Soul accessories specifically designed to fit seamlessly to your Soul.

To give you a better idea of the items available for this urban hatchback, we have selected a few of the most popular Soul accessories that consumers have been most satisfied with.

Technology:

Interior lighting- light up the night with vibrant floor lighting to set the driving mood, whether you’re getting amped up for a night on the town or taking a mellow drive back home after a long day.

Remote start-from up to 800-feet away you’ll be able to start your Soul, especially recommended for those in colder climates to prevent sitting there watching your windshield defrost slower than Internet Explorer loads.

Auto-dimming mirror with compass and HomeLink- it’s always helpful to know what direction you’re headed in, especially with a digital compass located in a convenient place. Also, when glancing up into your mirror, you won’t have to worry about squinting to see beyond the bright and piercing glare of reflecting headlights; meanwhile, HomeLink is always there as a backup should a problem ever arise.

Exterior:

Puddle lights- give your Soul that night club look with LED puddle lamps located beneath your vehicle to illuminate the bottom and entrance to your vehicle.

Roof Bike Attachment- save your cabin space for cargo and passengers by safely securing your bike atop the roof of your Soul.

Interior:

Sport pedals- don’t just get the look, but the feel too with the Soul sport pedals. Experience a more interactive drive, and when lifting your foot from pedal to pedal, the rubber pads prevent any slipping while the brushed metal gives it a professional look.

Floor mats, all-weather- never worry about tracking ice, snow, or sand across the carpet of your Soul with custom-fitted rubber floor mats that not only protect but make for quick and easy cleaning.
