The
2016 Kia Soul is expected to be presented
as a better model of the current one. However, previous one had been redesigned
and this one will just receive some number of new touches to upgrade it and
make it of better performance than the previous. It will be given some new
touches both in the exterior and the interior to make it a more performing and
agile. It will still maintain many of the features that are available in the
previous one. It is yet to be released for sale, but there are indications that
it will be made available for sale sometimes in the middle of 2015. This is
mere conjecture as the manufactures have not given any final verdict as regards
when it will actually be released for sale.
Kia Soul is a compact car which was
originally launched in 2008. So far, there are two generations of this car.
Second-generation model was launched last year as 2014 model and it made an
instant success. This model was praised for its design and functionality both
by experts and customers, so it isn’t wonder that sales results are remarkable.
Despite this fact, Korean automaker already works on some modifications, which
should appear with mid-cycle refreshed 2016 Kia Soul, which should come
early that year. Refreshed model will come not only with some cosmetic changes,
but also with plenty of mechanical novelties.
The new
2016 Kia Soul, a small
electric SUV from Kia,
will come unchanged in terms of design. Soul has a vivid personality and
unconventional look, and plays great part in Kia’s total sales numbers. Kia
Soul 2016 is meant for those individuals that like to experiment and look at
life with a different view. Its impeccable styling is the best thing Soul has
to offer, but available features and refined interior don’t fall in far behind.
Only real downside is lackluster fuel efficiency which should have been better.
In the
recent past, Kia
has been experiencing extraordinary growth, and it has therefore become Kia’s
goal to maintain this trend in the coming years. The company plans to roll out
a number of updated models and also extend its boundaries by entering new
markets. One of the model which is expected to be updated as a 2016 model is
Kia Soul. The 2016 Kia Soul is going to be presented as an upgraded version of
the current model. Since the current model received massive redesigning, this
upcoming car will go through some few touches to upgrade it and improve its
performance.
