The Kia Soul has been an innovative vehicle that has defied convention and gained customers. Boxy and featuring lots of cargo room for a compact vehicle, the Soul is one of a kind. Now for 2020, the Soul is refreshed with new models and engine options. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"488\" data-src=\"http:\/\/toyznation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/20191024_104710_HDR1-1024x488.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2285 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/toyznation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/20191024_104710_HDR1-1024x488.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/toyznation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/20191024_104710_HDR1-300x143.jpg 300w, https:\/\/toyznation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/20191024_104710_HDR1-768x366.jpg 768w, https:\/\/toyznation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/20191024_104710_HDR1-600x286.jpg 600w, https:\/\/toyznation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/20191024_104710_HDR1.jpg 2048w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/488;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I drove an X-Line for a week around the Washington Metropolitan Area. New with the Soul is new styling and technology features. On the X-Line you get a more rugged look with a body kit and off-road accents. I really love the interior and the design elements. On the exterior, you also have some nice design touches like the integrated Soul logo in the cladding. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"488\" data-src=\"http:\/\/toyznation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/20191024_100639_HDR-1024x488.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2288 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/toyznation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/20191024_100639_HDR-1024x488.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/toyznation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/20191024_100639_HDR-300x143.jpg 300w, https:\/\/toyznation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/20191024_100639_HDR-768x366.jpg 768w, https:\/\/toyznation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/20191024_100639_HDR-600x286.jpg 600w, https:\/\/toyznation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/20191024_100639_HDR.jpg 2048w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/488;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Soul X-Line boasts a 2.0 L 4-cylinder engine that makes 147 HP and 132 lb-ft of torque. It has a variable transmission that gets an EPA-rated 33 mpg on the highway. Several safety features come standard like; blind-spot collision warning, and lane change assist. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"519\" data-src=\"http:\/\/toyznation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/14986_2020_Soul_X-Line-1024x519.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2290 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/toyznation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/14986_2020_Soul_X-Line-1024x519.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/toyznation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/14986_2020_Soul_X-Line-300x152.jpg 300w, https:\/\/toyznation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/14986_2020_Soul_X-Line-768x389.jpg 768w, https:\/\/toyznation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/14986_2020_Soul_X-Line-600x304.jpg 600w, https:\/\/toyznation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/14986_2020_Soul_X-Line.jpg 2048w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/519;\" \/><figcaption>2020 Soul X-Line<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Android Auto and Apple Car Play are also standard. I have visited the Kia Sohari Factory before, however, the Soul is manufactured at the Gwangju Plant. The base price on the Kia Soul Turbo is $21,620.
