Why it stands out

The 2021 Kia Soul stands out because it keeps the model’s familiar boxy personality while adding more modern hardware and convenience features. It was built on a new chassis with Kia’s most current technology, powertrains, and safety features, and the body grew by three centimetres in wheelbase and 5.5 centimetres in overall length, which helped create more comfort and interior space. Kia also added dual-zone climate control and wireless phone charging, while heated front seats and side mirrors were standard. For buyers who want something practical but not anonymous, the Soul’s distinctive shape and roomy cabin remain a big part of its appeal.

Under the hood, the 2021 Kia Soul used a new 2.0-litre inline four-cylinder engine rated at 147 horsepower and 132 pound-feet of torque, paired with a continuously variable transmission. Fuel economy was rated at 7.9 litres per 100 kilometres, and the turbo engine was discontinued in Canada. The Canadian trim range was broad, with available equipment including a 10.25-inch touchscreen on higher trims, a head-up display, a 10-speaker Harman Kardon stereo with a subwoofer, and several driver-assist features such as lane-keep assist, blind spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic collision avoidance assist. For 2021, the GT-Line Premium and EX Limited trims were deleted, so the lineup was still well equipped but a little less expansive than before.

There were also some important caveats for shoppers. The 2021 to 2023 models were subject to a recall due to engine issues, and engine replacements were common. Even if a car had been repaired, the repair may not be sufficient to last long-term because Kia dealers installed vibration sensors on many cars without replacing the engines. That means the 2021 Kia Soul is best viewed as a clever, spacious, and feature-rich small hatchback, but one that deserves careful checking for recall work and maintenance history.
