Kia Soul: owner feedback on a new Korean car
The first series of legendary crossovers Kia Soul was put up for sale in Korea in the autumn of 2008. The jeep's sales in the domestic market were quite successful, and in February 2009 the Korean manufacturer announced the production of export versions of Kia Soul. The responses of the owners from Europe and Russia highlighted the high quality of assembly and low fuel consumption of the novelty, for which the car was widely recognized in many countries of the world. But, in addition, in the reviews there were great disputes about which class belongs to this Korean miracle. Some said that it was a station wagon, others referred it to crossovers and hatchbacks, and some even considered it a real minivan. Today, we will leave these disputes aside and look more closely at the car itself, especially since it has elements to look out for.
