The 2024 Kia Soul LX for buyers

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2024 Kia Soul LX for sale by us right now. For anyone shopping for the 2024 Kia Soul LX, here are the facts that matter.

What to check on the Soul

NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Owners filed 30 complaints with NHTSA, most often about electrical system, unknown or other and engine; have those parts checked.

Under the hood

The 2.0L 4-cylinder is what moves it, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

At 7.9 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 24 litres of fuel. At our price setting, it costs about $12.25 to drive 100 km. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,250 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Living with the Soul

As a wagon, it has the length of a car with a bigger load space at the back. For luggage, 680 litres means bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.

Best uses

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

A longer test drive

Rent the Soul for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Soul answers the big questions.

Running costs

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. The EPA estimates US$2,250 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Narrowing it down

Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Compare the LX with the other trims of the same year before you decide.
