    Turning in a lease - buyout offers, extensions?

    Ah, I'm in the same boat at the end of October. I signed a 3 year lease, and the residual is ~$16,250. I was going to inquire about extending month to month, but perhaps I shouldn't get my hopes up.

    Clueless service monkeys

    This is what I fear most- that the service techs won't have the experience to deal with any issues that come up.

    Roll call for PacNW Soul EV owners!

    I thought that I'd share- I saw my first 'other' Soul EV yesterday, in Seattle. Magnuson Park Arena Sports parking in grey. My family and I joke that we must be the only Soul EV around, since we've never seen one since getting ours. The kids were very excited to see the grey one yesterday. =)

    Little things owners have noticed on the Soul EV

    I have to admit, I didn't fully read the manual before I started driving- just listened to the salesperson's walkthrough. backup camera is not hooded, so rain and grime can quickly make it difficult to see clearly out of. if car is locked and charging plug is in, you cannot unplug the charger...

    Kia "CHARGE UP" Card

    Ah, so I finally received my card in the mail, but wasn't able to successfully register it on the kiachargeup.com site. After emailing Greenlots, they registered the card on their end, but I still can't get it registered on kiachargeup.com. Hopefully it'll 'just work' when I swing by the dealer...

    Kia "CHARGE UP" Card

    So I took delivery of my EV+ on 10/31, and there was no chargeUp card in the manual at that time. The dealer said that they were having issues getting the cards. Here it is 3 weeks later and still no card after a few attempts at contacting my sales guy. Sent an email to the sales manager, and...

    Rough lease estimates for the Seattle area

    My first post! I just signed a 3 yr 30k miles lease with Chuck Olson Chevrolet/Kia yesterday for an EV+ with home link option. The numbers you posted above are very similar to the responses I had gotten in the same timeframe. I had five or six emails out to dealers within 50 miles. After...
