Perhaps it was wishful thinking on my part, but Kia had been announcing for quite a while that the Soul EV would have 120 miles of electric range, and that was supposed to be real world attainable.
Now we get the announcement for sure today at the Chicago Auto Show that Kia is targeting the 80-100 mile range. Boo.
Of course, I'm of the mindset that any EV is good, and depending on the Soul EV's price it could sell quite. I was hoping that this would be the first of the next gen of long range electric vehicles, not just a vehicle to keep up with the Leaf, Spark EV, Focus Electric etc etc etc
