Kia Soul EV Review

Kia Soul EV – Kia’s crossover SUV is now in it’s 3rd Generation.

The Soul EV has been on sale in the UK since November 2014 and is currently priced from £37,545 including the plug-in car government grant.

The basic specs for the entry level Soul EV include;

• 16” Lightweight Alloy Wheels
• 8″ Touchscreen Satellite Navigation with Charging Point Locator and Rear View Camera
• Automatic Dual Zone Air Conditioning
• LED Daytime Running Lights & Front Fog Lights
• Engine Start/Stop with Smart Key-less Entry System

Range and Charging

The official range of the latest 3rd generation Kia Soul is 280 miles powered by an improved 64 kWh lithium-ion battery pack.  That’s now more than the range claimed by the Renault Zoe and more than double the range of the 2nd generation.

Charging by a domestic socket will take over 12 hours. Luckily Kia supplies a wallbox charger that will redice this by more than half. It’s also fitted with a fast charging socket taking only 30 minutes to give an 80% charge. Both included as standard.
