Does anyone know if the Soul EV offers Over the Air software updates? Or does an owner have to keep bringing the car into the dealer to get updates and fix small software bugs? Thanks.

According to the Kia web site there is a soul EV available at the PAUL CERAME KIA dealership in Missouri. Maybe this is the beginning of a 50 state rollout since Missouri was not indicated on the last press release of 5 new states for Soul EV sales?

mtndrew1 Thanks, this is great info! I didn't know it might be possible to upgrade my existing wiring from to 240 Volt or possibly to 20 Amps. I've read a lot about people being charged crazy prices for their wiring. I bet no one tells them about this option. I think I might go this route...

Anybody experiment with Level 1 charging times? I recently realized my breaker box is behind my house in the backyard so I'm sure running wires from the backyard to my garage will cost a small fortune. I'm wondering how many miles of range you can expect from each hour of level 1 charge? Is...

I've contacted several dealers in Houston and haven't gotten any info about the Soul EV. Anybody out there have any luck. The only concrete response I got was from Capital Kia in Austin who said they were expecting them this month. It seems like the State incentive is expiring this month, so...

Anyone know how I can find out which Texas dealerships will sell the Soul EV? I called around to some Houston area dealers and they all seem pretty clueless.

Good deal! What are your total lease payments and fees? I'm hoping to get a similar deal in Texas. Thanks.

Is the average EPA range estimated using standard drive mode and w/o the Active Eco function turned on? Can someone give me some insights as to how much of a range difference using B-Mode and/or Active Eco mode makes? I'm trying to to determine if the average range of 93 miles is sufficient...

Yes, I would fully qualify. It would be nice to just get it up front though as part of the lease deal.

Does anyone have experience fitting multiple car seats in the Soul EV? I'm a little concerned because the EV has about 3 in less legroom in the back than the ICE version. Can someone with kids share their experience? With two car seats is there room for a 3rd person to sit? Thanks.

Hello, now that the Soul EV is officially coming to Texas I'm debating whether to buy or lease (yeah I know conventional wisdom is to lease EVs as to avoid the low resale value). However I'm the type to keep a car quite a while. My current ICE car is now 8 years old with 41k on it. And we do...
