Used 2020 Kia Soul for Sale near Newfoundland and Labrador

How much does the 2020 Kia Soul cost?

Prices have softened 15.06% compared to this time last year, making it a favourable time to shop this model year.

There are 171 listings available, which suggests you should have a reasonable amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2020 Kia Soul a good car?

Yes — the 2020 Kia Soul earns a 4.67/5 user rating and an 8.5/10 expert rating. The standout strength is Form and function at 10/10.

Owners consistently praise the spacious interior, stylish design, and easy-to-use modern features. They also point to its good value and fuel mileage, which fits a shopper looking for everyday practicality without giving up personality.

The main trade-offs are its fairly pedestrian performance and the fact that advanced safety features are not standard. That lines up with its role as a practical, boxy hatchback that blends small-SUV utility with compact-car efficiency and refinement.

With 28.7% of listings priced as good or great deals, there is still enough market activity to give you some choice if you shop carefully.

Is the 2020 Kia Soul reliable?

Owners rate it 4.67/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback also points to a dependable, trouble-free ownership experience, with praise for the car’s long-term usefulness, solid value, and the sense that it is easy to count on for daily driving. The expert assessment reinforces that impression by describing the Soul as refined, relatively quiet under acceleration, and well put together for its class.

The cost-effectiveness commentary also notes that the Soul delivers useful, practical transportation without forcing you into a larger vehicle, which can help keep ownership straightforward. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that you should still verify maintenance history and make sure any safety-related equipment works as expected.

What should I look for when buying a used 2020 Kia Soul?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The LX is pretty basic, with 16-inch steel wheels with plastic covers, manual front-seat adjustments, one USB input, Bluetooth connectivity, keyless entry, and power windows, but it does include heated front seats, body-colour heated side mirrors, and a 7-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The EX adds 16-inch alloy wheels, a heated steering wheel, and driver-assistance features, while the EX+ adds 17-inch alloy wheels, LED lighting, and cloth and synthetic leather seats. The EX Premium brings 18-inch wheels, dual-zone automatic climate control, push-button start, and a 10.25-inch infotainment system. The EX Limited adds rain-sensing wipers, advanced forward collision avoidance assist, a head-up display, Harman Kardon premium audio, adaptive cruise control, leather seats, an 8-way power driver’s seat, ventilated front seats, and heated outboard rear seats. The GT-Line Premium and GT-Line Limited add sport bumpers and side sill accents, roof rails, and a sport steering wheel.
• Powertrain: Most trims use a 2-litre, 4-cylinder engine with 147 horsepower and 132 lb-ft of torque, paired with a CVT and front-wheel drive. The engine is described as delivering decent acceleration, with solid pull in both low-speed and high-speed situations, and the CVT manages its power surprisingly well. The manual transmission and the 1.6-litre turbocharged engine are not sold in Canada.
• Safety package: Standard safety equipment includes front- and side-impact airbags, a reversing camera, traction control, hill-start assist, and a tire pressure monitoring system. The EX adds forward-collision warning and avoidance, lane-keep assist, lane departure warning, blind-spot warning, and rear cross-path detection. The EX Limited and GT-Line Limited add adaptive cruise control, a head-up display, and pedestrian detection for the forward-collision warning and avoidance system.
• Infotainment: The LX, EX, and EX+ get a 7-inch touchscreen, while higher trims get a 10.25-inch screen. Kia’s UVO system includes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and the larger screen is described as a major upgrade with bright colours and graphics.
• Fuel efficiency: The 2-litre engine and CVT return fuel consumption of 8.6 L/100 km in the city, 7.1 L/100 km on the highway, and 7.9 L/100 km combined. In mixed driving, the observed fuel consumption was 8.0 L/100 km.

Which 2020 Kia Soul trim should I buy?

The 2020 Kia Soul is offered in 7 trim levels: LX, EX, EX+, EX Premium, EX Limited, GT-Line Premium, and GT-Line Limited.

Here's the short version:

• LX: This is the least expensive way into the Soul, and it already gives you the boxy design, heated front seats, heated side mirrors, and a 7-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It makes sense if you want the Soul’s core practicality and technology without stretching your budget.
• EX: This is the best-value trim. It adds alloy wheels, a heated steering wheel, and a much more complete driver-assistance package, which makes it the smartest step up for most used buyers.
• EX+: Choose this if you want a nicer look and feel, with 17-inch alloy wheels, LED lighting, and cloth and synthetic leather seats.
• EX Premium: This trim is for you if you want the bigger 10.25-inch infotainment screen, dual-zone automatic climate control, and push-button start.
• EX Limited: This is the most comfort- and safety-focused non-sport trim, with adaptive cruise control, a head-up display, premium audio, leather, ventilated front seats, and heated outboard rear seats.
• GT-Line Premium: Pick this if you want the sportier appearance package, including sport bumpers, side sill accents, roof rails, and a sport steering wheel.
• GT-Line Limited: This is the top trim, combining the GT-Line look with the EX Limited’s richer equipment list.

The EX trim is the one CarGurus recommends, and the safety package expands as you move up the range.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2020 Kia Soul?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you should have room to compare listings and wait for the right one.

• Deal availability: 28.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 171 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 15.06% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $14,878 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2020 Kia Soul's resale value?

The current average of $15,164 CAD sits slightly below last year's $17,853 CAD.

That softer pricing means future sellers may face a more competitive market than owners did a year ago. If you buy now, the lower entry price can help offset some depreciation risk, especially if you choose a well-equipped trim that appeals to used buyers.

The Soul’s broad appeal comes from its roomy cabin, distinctive styling, and easy-to-use technology, all of which help it stand out in a crowded segment. Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.67/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2020 Kia Soul safe?

The 2020 Kia Soul earns a Top Safety Pick rating from the IIHS and a four-star safety rating from NHTSA.

It earns an 8/10 safety score from our experts.

Standard safety features include front- and side-impact airbags, a reversing camera, traction control, hill-start assist, and a tire pressure monitoring system. The EX trim adds forward-collision warning and avoidance, lane-keep assist, lane departure warning, blind-spot warning, and rear cross-path detection. Higher trims add adaptive cruise control, a head-up display, and pedestrian detection for the forward-collision warning and avoidance system.

A key caveat is that advanced safety features are not standard, so you need to move up from the base trim if you want a fuller driver-assistance suite.

Should I buy a 2020 Kia Soul or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2020 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2020 if:

• 28.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 15.06% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.67/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2020 model stands out for its refined driving dynamics, lower starting price than many rivals, and the way it delivers form and function in equal measure.

The bottom line: If you want the Soul with its distinctive redesign, roomy cabin, and strong blend of utility and efficiency, the 2020 is the one to target. If you are especially price-sensitive, you can still shop carefully and focus on well-priced EX examples, since that trim offers the best balance of equipment and value.
