Used 2020 Kia Soul for Sale nearQuebec, QC

How much does the 2020 Kia Soul cost?

Prices have softened 16.84% compared to this time last year, making it a favourable time to shop this model year.

There are 193 listings available, which suggests you should have some room to compare prices and equipment.

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 fun driving experience, spacious interior, stylish design, modern features, and gas mileage. That lines up well with the Soul’s use case as a practical small vehicle that blends hatchback efficiency with SUV-like utility.

The main trade-offs are fairly pedestrian performance and the fact that advanced safety features are not standard. Even so, the Soul’s lower starting price than many rivals and its easy-to-use technology make it a strong fit if you want value and versatility in a compact package.

Good and great deals account for 31.6% of listings, which is a decent sign that you can still find competitive offers.

Is the 2020 Kia Soul reliable?

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

The owner feedback points to a dependable, trouble-free ownership experience for many shoppers, with repeated praise for the car’s gas mileage and overall value. That kind of satisfaction usually matters when you’re looking for a used vehicle you can count on over time.

The expert evaluation also describes the Soul as refined and relatively quiet under acceleration, which supports the impression of a well-sorted daily driver. Kia’s value-oriented positioning also helps make ownership feel sensible rather than costly.

For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that you should still verify maintenance history and make sure the vehicle has been cared for properly, especially if you plan to keep it for many years.

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, manual front-seat adjustments, one USB input, Bluetooth connectivity, keyless entry, power windows, 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 higher trims add larger wheels, LED lighting, dual-zone climate control, a larger infotainment screen, and more comfort and convenience equipment. If you want the best value, the EX is the trim to focus on.
• Powertrain: Most trims use a 2.0-litre four-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 a Sport button and manual mode to help it feel more responsive.
• Safety package: The EX adds blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-path detection, lane-change assist, and forward-collision warning and avoidance. The EX Limited and GT-Line Limited add adaptive cruise control, a head-up display, and pedestrian detection for the forward-collision system. Advanced safety features are not standard on the base trim.
• Infotainment: The LX, EX, and EX+ use a 7-inch touchscreen, while higher trims get a 10.25-inch screen. All trims include Kia’s UVO infotainment system, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto.
• Fuel efficiency: The 2.0-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 figure 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 entry point, but it still gives you heated front seats, body-colour heated side mirrors, and the 7-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It makes sense if you want the lowest price and can live without the extra driver-assistance and comfort features.
• EX: This is the best-value trim. It adds alloy wheels, a heated steering wheel, and the key driver-assistance features that make the Soul feel much more complete, including blind-spot monitoring and forward-collision warning and avoidance.
• EX+: This trim adds 17-inch alloy wheels, LED lighting, and cloth and synthetic leather seats, so it suits you if you want a nicer look and feel without jumping all the way to the upper trims.
• EX Premium: This version brings 18-inch wheels, dual-zone automatic climate control, push-button start, and the larger 10.25-inch infotainment system with SiriusXM satellite radio. It’s a good fit if you want more convenience and a more upscale cabin.
• EX Limited: This is the most comfort- and safety-focused choice, with 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.
• GT-Line Premium: This trim builds on EX Premium with sport bumpers and side sill accents, roof rails, and a sport steering wheel. Choose it if you want the sportier appearance package.
• GT-Line Limited: This is the top trim and adds the same sport-oriented styling on top of 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, with the most advanced driver-assistance features reserved for the upper trims.

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

The market looks moderately favourable if you’re a selective buyer.

• Deal availability: 31.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 193 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 16.84% 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 $15,043 CAD sits slightly below last year's $18,090 CAD.

That drop suggests the market has become more buyer-friendly, which can make it harder for a future seller to command a premium unless the vehicle is especially well equipped or exceptionally clean. If you buy now, you’re entering at a lower price point than owners saw a year ago, which can help reduce depreciation risk from here.

The year-round low and high also show that condition, trim, and equipment still matter a lot in this market. A well-kept Soul with desirable features should be easier to move later than a basic example with fewer options.

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 Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and a four-star safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

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 system.

The main caveat is that advanced safety features are not standard, so if safety tech matters to you, you’ll want to shop beyond the base trim.

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:

• 31.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 16.84% 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 form-and-function packaging that makes it especially appealing in the economy-car segment.

The bottom line: If you want the Soul’s distinctive styling, roomy cabin, and strong value proposition, the 2020 is a smart place to focus. If you’re especially price-sensitive, the softened market makes it worth shopping carefully for a clean example with the equipment you want, while still prioritizing the EX trim or better for the best balance of features and value.
