The KIA SOUL (2014-17) 5DR SUV 1.6 CRDI DPF 134 EU6 MAXX DCT AUTO7 is a compact crossover with an upright small-SUV stance, raised seating and the everyday ease of a family hatchback. In the UK, its boxy design gives it a distinctive alternative to rivals such as the Nissan Juke. Mycarcheck.com has logged 50 checks across 23 VINs, a useful snapshot of interest. Checked cars average about £8,000, 48,000 miles and 6,000 miles annually, with just over two previous keepers. These are observed figures, not guarantees of condition or value. The diesel engine and automatic gearbox suit commuters and small families seeking relaxed journeys, useful cabin space and easy driving. Its economical character can appeal to regular longer-distance users, while the Soul’s practical shape and bold looks offer more personality than many small crossovers. As with any used car, check its full service history and overall condition before buying.
