Kia’s Soul could have been big - really big. It was a compact crossover, exactly what most mature markets are now looking for, with great styling and a wide array of customization options. Sadly for Kia, a company which definitely put a lot of effort into its development, the Soul never really caught on as much as they were hoping, nor did it reach the desired age range.
Now, though, they are willing to try again, as according to automobilemag.com, they will be replacing the Soul next year, with an all-new model. While not many details have been shared by officials, it is very likely that the Soul - already a funky-looking car, will not change drastically, keeping the same basic shape, along with Kia’s new styling language.
We must admit to being quite curious as to what they will come up with, and seeing how much Kia has progressed as a brand, even since 2008 when the Soul was launched, the new one should be a very tough competitor for small crossovers like the Nissan Juke.
