    Just picked up Soul EV 2020 Limited in Vancouver

    That's true DG, Unfortunately due to constrained battery supply, Kia pushed USA availability for SoulEV to 2021. This car has been available in Canada since the end of April 2019 and mostly has been sold in Europe and Korea. It's a shame, because SoulEV is a really nice car. They could sell so...

    Just picked up Soul EV 2020 Limited in Vancouver

    Congratulations on your new KIA Soul EV techrider! I've been driving mine since May 2019 and love it. In Vancouver climate I have not seen battery heater kicked in even once - it would show in the energy consumption screen. Maybe it's not cold enough? Or maybe because car lives in the heated...

    Hi Laurel1949, built-in navigation is very good and uses 10.25" screen to show additional information, like HW lanes or upcoming turns. Much better than on Soul EV 2016 or my old Lexus RX350. You can also see basic navigation info on HUD. UVO is finally available in Canada and I like it a lot...

    Where to get all season Floor Mats?

    I can't find all season floor mats or cargo liner for Kia Soul EV 2020 anywhere. I guess the car is too new and it takes time for 3rd parties to make them. If someone knows where to get those please share a link.

    Just picked up Soul EV 2020 Limited in Vancouver

    The colour is deep blue, looks very nice. See here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/3rjs60mzxmjjikl/BlueSoulEV.JPG?dl=0 Seats are black, so will not stain as much as grey seats in my old Soul EV. Can't say much about availability. Officially the car has not been released in Canada yet. You can see...

    Just picked up Soul EV 2020 Limited in Vancouver

    Hi Laurel 1949, to start moving you just turn the dial to switch to D or R and push the button in the middle of dial for P. It's easy to operate, although not as intuitive as the regular gear stick in my old Soul EV. After 3 weeks with the new car I still have to look down to find the dial and...

    Just picked up Soul EV 2020 Limited in Vancouver

    Hi EVDee, That's a tough case. I would only suggest Kia EV if there are fast charging stations available on your way. Otherwise 300km at high speed will be a stretch during a winter time especially if there are hills on the way. You may or may not make it. My new Soul EV 2020 has 529 km...

    Unfortunately no roof rails on my car. I've seen several Kia Soul EV 2020 in 2 dealerships here in Vancouver and none of them has roof rails. Sunroof is regular size, not panoramic. But it still helps to get the heat out.

    Just picked up Soul EV 2020 Limited

    The first few Soul EVs 2020 have arrived to dealerships in Vancouver in late April. I already had $1000 deposit I put earlier, anticipating that the inventory will be low. The car is not officially released in Canada and they don't have a complete financial info yet. For instance, dealers still...

    I've returned my 2016 Soul EV Luxury lease and bought Soul EV 2020 Limited with 64 kWh battery in Canada. Single color - blue, with sunroof. From dealer words there are no dual color options in Canada. The new car is faster, smarter and slightly longer. Cargo volume is larger, slightly more...

    Brakes seized on new Soul EV after 10 months

    My SoulEV 2016 also makes growling noise coming from rear wheels when car is backing up. I noticed it soon after I've got the car. To me it sounded like parking break is not released completely, but the car is not slowing down when going forward and wheels don't get hot. So I just ignore it. 1.5...
