2008 L.A. Auto Show: Kia Soul Pics Leak Ahead of L.A. Debut
Below, you can see exclusive US-specs Soul pictures. In addition, I have enclosed a Canadian Soul accessory brochure, that first appeared at Canadian National Kia dealer meeting a few months ago. As you know, Soul crossover will be available with a range of exterior customizations. Many of them you can see here and possibly several others will not only reach Canadian, but US market as well.
Engineered to accommodate an array of diesel and gasoline engines, the US-spec Soul model will only be available with a potent 2,0L in-line four engine. Developing 142 horsepower, the engine should provide plenty of punch, while still delivering a respectable gas mileage. When going on sale in US, the Soul will be available with either a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmissions.
Here we have the first official images of the 2010 US-spec Kia Soul model. The Soul urban crossover will make it’s official US premiere at the upcoming Los Angeles Auto Show.
Out of 136,000 Souls that Kia intends to produce annually at it’s Gwangju manufacturing facility in South Korea, 50,000 units will be shipped to the North American market. The Soul is expected to reach US market early next year with sales commencing in April 2009.
