Kia has announced details of a range of upgrades to the Soul compact sport utility vehicle, and the introduction of a powerful new 201bhp 1.6-litre T-GDI engine variant - the most powerful Soul ever engineered by the Korean brand.
Powered by Kia's 201bhp 1.6-litre T-GDI engine, the new Soul 1.6 T-GDI is the most powerful Soul that Kia has produced. With the new engine, the car will accelerate from 0-100km/h in 7.5 seconds, has a top speed of 196km/h, and produces CO2 emissions of 156 g/km.
The Soul also receives light design updates to its exterior and interior, and is now available with new safety and infotainment technologies.
The upgraded Soul and Soul 1.6 T-GDI will be available in the U.K. from late 2016 and will have its public unveiling at the 2016 Paris Motor Show on 29th September.
