2025 Kia Soul Overview

For 2025, the Kia Soul returns with a bold personality and practical hatchback design. Only adding subtle refinements to keep things fresh, the core design remains the same. Expect there to be new exterior paint options and updated wheel designs provide more ways to personalize your ride. Kia also enhances its tech suite, offering even more features as the standard on lower trims. Of course the Kia Soul keeps it simple, sweet, and soulmate-worthy.

Performance

Under the hood, Kia keeps it simple for the 2025 Soul. Continuing with its tried-and-true 2.0L 4-cylinder engine, the Soul produces 147 horsepower and 132 lb-ft of torque. Paired with Kia Intelligent Variable Transmission (IVT), the Soul offers a smooth and responsive driving experience. While the Kia Soul isn’t known as a performance vehicle, it still provides peppy acceleration and confident handling.

MPG

Efficiency is a major strength of the Kia Soul. The 2025 model achieves an EPA-estimated 28 mpg in the city and 33 mpg on the highway. Just another reason why the Soul is the best! The fuel economy combined with a reasonable price point adds to its appeal as a reliable daily driver. You’ll be able to zip around town in no time.

Top Speed

The 2025 Kia Soul reaches a top speed of around 120 mph, though it’s clearly designed for comfort and efficiency over speed. Still, it offers enough get-up-and-go for merging on highways or passing slower traffic with ease. It can go 0-60 mph in 8 seconds.

Interior

Ask any current Kia Soul owner what surprises them the most about this vehicle, and 9 times out of 10, they’ll say how spacious it is. Its upright, box-design gives it a roomy cabin with generous headroom and legroom, not only in the front, but also the back row. With 24.2 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats and up to 62.1 cubic feet with them folded down, it’s perfect for groceries, luggage, or weekend gear. The 2025 model features high-quality, intuitive controls, and a stylish dashboard layout.

Technology

This little box on wheels is just full of surprises, especially when it comes to technology. All 2025 Soul trims come with an 8-inch touchscreen (or a 10.25-inch display in higher trims), Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth, and multiple USB ports. Upper trims add navigation, premium Harman Kardon audio, wireless charging, and smart key with push-button start.

Safety

Higher trims of the 2025 Kia Soul offer additional features that are really worth the extra cost. Features include blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive cruise control, making the Soul a strong contender in the safety department. Safety is a top priority in the 2025 Kia Soul. To show that Kia cares about their drivers’ safety regardless of which trim you choose, all 2025 Kia Soul models include standard advanced driver assistance features such as:

Forward Collision Avoidance Assist
Lane Keeping Assist
Driver Attention Warning
Rear Occupant Alert
