Hi, I recently got new tires and am noticing that my range has dropped by about 15%. A little bit of context - we had a tire blow out just before the start of our State's COVID-19 shutdown, and while I'd usually do a bunch of research on something like new tires, it wasn't clear when things...

Hi everyone, I've seen mentions on the Kia Soul EV Facebook page that there's a firmware update for Kia Soul EVs that enables DC fast charging up to 94% now (current limit on my 2016 is 84%). Does anyone have info on this update, and does anyone know if it applies to the 2016 model year? Thanks!

Hi everyone, My lease is up towards the end of the Summer. At this point I'm interested in keeping my car, but like most leases the residual doesn't make sense given the market value of the vehicle. For those that are (or already have) turned in their lease, I'd be interested in hearing your...

I had the misfortune to get a flat tire on the way to work yesterday. It was a clean puncture from a nail or screw and the tire rapidly lost air, so I had to pull over and stop driving. I mulled my options: 1) Use the fix-a-flat system included with the vehicle - seems easy, but I've heard...

Here in Washington State, there are no taxes on sales of new EVs as long as the purchase price before fed gov't rebate is under $35k. Thus there is quite a bit of incentive to get the purchase price of an EV below $35k (sales tax here is roughly 10%). I've been communicating with a few dealers...

In case this helps anyone... I emailed some dealers in the Seattle area this weekend about Soul EV leases in the Plus (+) trim. Some caveats: 1. I didn't spend much time going back and forth with the dealers, so there's tons of missing info (what options are on the car? What's the MSRP? Etc.)...
