Why it stands out

The 2023 Kia Soul stands out because it proves economy cars do not have to be boring. Its boxy styling gives it an instantly recognizable look, and the Soul’s appeal comes from combining that distinctive design with practical everyday usefulness and strong value. It also strikes a useful balance between a car and a crossover, with tidy proportions and an upright driving position that help it feel different from many small hatchbacks.

For 2023, the Kia Soul gets more standard driver-assist features, small styling tweaks, and a revised lineup of trim levels that includes LX, S, EX, and GT-Line models. The X-Line and Turbo variants have been discontinued. That makes the 2023 model year feel more focused, while still preserving the Soul’s core strengths of style, space, and value. Buyers should note, though, that performance is fairly pedestrian, the seats are uncomfortable, and advanced safety features are not standard.
