What's New?
While none of the changes in the 2021 Kia Soul are on par with the dramatic refresh the Soul received last year, the 2021 model still offers a series of substantial updates. That's especially true for drivers interested in its electric EV model.
The 2021 Kia Soul EV was originally intended for a 2020 release, but was eventually pushed back to 2021. Its release this year provides a fresh new electric option for Garrison and Eldersburg drivers hoping to save at the pump while still enjoying the perks of the Soul's spacious interiors.
The 2021 Soul EV will likewise have access to Uvo telematics system drivers can use to track their car's charging status using their phones. The 2021 Soul, overall, will likewise enjoy the benefits of a new rear suspension, designed to improve the small SUV's stability on rougher roads.
Trim Levels
In 2021, the new Kia Soul will come available in six unique trims: the Kia Soul LX, Soul X-Line, Soul S, Soul EX, and Soul GT-Line.
At the most basic level, the 2021 Kia Soul offers a lot of space for a subcompact SUV. Even with its small size and all the seats in use, you'll enjoy more than 24 cubic feet of cargo space. Drivers keen on comfort, meanwhile, will find plenty of amenities waiting, as well. Synthetic leather pairs well with heated seating in the wintertime. Dual-zone automatic climate control, meanwhile, offers comfort all year round.
Eldersburg drivers hoping to enjoy their favorite media, meanwhile, will find plenty to love in the 2021 Soul's media systems. Even at the base level, you'll enjoy a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay, Android, and more.

Engine Performance
If you're looking for something efficient and comfortable on the road, the 2021 Soul will be well-equipped to provide that too. Just like the 2020 model, it uses a 147 horsepower 2.0-liter inline-4 for its standard powertrain. Drivers hoping for more, meanwhile, will find an improved level of power in its 1.6-liter turbocharged inline-4; capable of 201 horsepower and 195 pounds-feets of torque.
For many drivers, however, the Kia Soul EV will be the star of the show. 243 miles of battery-only driving range is nothing to shrug about, after all.
