The funky and lovable Kia Soul, now in its third generation, has lost its fully electric variant for 2024. All models now feature a naturally aspirated 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine producing 147 horsepower and mated to a continuously variable transmission. The Soul is often considered as a small crossover, yet it doesn’t offer all-wheel drive. Customers do get good bang for their buck, not to mention a surprisingly capacious and versatile interior.
