Take A Ride On The Cool Side In The 2017 Kia Soul

I don’t know about you but for me when it comes to selecting a new vehicle it is important that this vehicle not only offers the performance, safety, and features that I want, I also want it to offer that “cool factor”. It’s not enough to know that I have a reliable vehicle, I want it to be reliable and make my friends envious. However, since I also live on a budget I need to have all of those standards checked off along with a price tag that is not going to have me living on a Ramen-only diet for the foreseeable future. Luckily for me, I found exactly what I was looking for right here at Destination Kia when I took a test drive in the 2017 Kia Soul.

Not only is this vehicle safe and efficient it is also fun to drive and comes at a price that I can afford. In fact, the starting MSRP for this vehicle is only $16,100! This is one car that definitely offers the “Cool Factor” that I was looking for, in fact, this car is so cool that it earned a spot on the  10 Coolest Cars Under $18,000 in 2017 list from Kelley Blue Book’s KBB.com.

“It’s exciting to see that the Soul continues to be recognized as the stand-out vehicle it is,” said Orth Hedrick, vice president, product planning, Kia Motors America. “We’ve really upped the fun factor this year with a new turbocharged model and its personality is infectious regardless of which model a customer buys. The fact that it’s been consistently included on Kelley Blue Book’s list of 10 Coolest Cars Under $18,000 is a clear indication that the Soul offers the perfect blend of style and substance.”

This is now the sixth year in a row that the Soul has been recognized by KBB.com and it is no surprise that it made the list this year when you take a look at everything that you get for such an affordable price with the 2017 model. For starters, there are three trim levels (Base, Plus, and Exclaim) and they each come equipped with their own engine that helps to provide a unique level of power so you can pick the one that best meets what you want. Additionally, some of the standard features that you can find on this vehicle include Electronic Brake-Force Distribution, LATCH System, BLUETOOTH® Wireless Technology, FlexSteer™ with Normal/Comfort/Sport Driving Modes, Six-Way Adjustable Driver’s Seat, Power Windows with Driver One-Touch Auto-Down, and much more.

“The Kia Soul continues to find a spot on our list of 10 Coolest Cars under $18,000 because it delivers so much personality and versatility for the money,” said Jack R. Nerad, executive editorial director for Kelley Blue Book’s KBB.com.  “In fact, there are very few vehicles we can think of that offer more usable interior space, features and sheer presence for the money than the Kia Soul. It is truly a car whose value exceeds its cost.”

So do yourself a favor and head on over to Destination Kia and take a test drive in the 2017 Kia Soul and see why this is one cool car with a price tag that is even cooler!
