Featuring tons of cabin space, the front-wheel-drive Kia Soul is powered by a 1.6-litre 4-cylinder engine, mated to a 4-speed automatic and, if you ask the dealer nicely, a 5-speed manual too. Available in two trim levels, the basic model comes with 16-inch alloy wheels, power windows, electric power steering, keyless entry, electric mirrors, a single driver's airbag, roof rack, fog lamps, CD stereo with iPod input, rear parking sensors, split-folding rear seat, black cloth upholstery and 16-inch alloy wheels. The top-spec trim gets a better CD stereo with a sub-woofer and illuminated speakers, as well as a sunroof, leather steering wheel, underfloor tray and power outlet in the boot, luggage net, some extra trim. dual front airbags and 18-inch alloy wheels, with a choice of black, beige and red two-tone interiors.

In addition to front airbags, ABS is available only on the top-spec model, but stability control and side airbags are not available on GCC-spec models.
