Kia Soul
The Soul is available with 1.6-litre, 2.0-litre or turbocharged 1.6-litre four-cylinder engines. Alternatively, there's an all-electric drivetrain that can travel up to 179 kilometres on a single charge. Regardless of the version you choose, the Soul comes with a front-wheel drivetrain. There are no less than 10 trim levels of the Soul, and it goes without saying that it is Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatible.
