Video Summary
Here is the summary of the YouTube video review:The 2020 Kia Soul EV won the World Urban Car of the Year award. Both trims for the Soul EV have LED headlights, turn signals, and fog lights. The charging port is up front, and it has two charging options covered by plastic to keep dirt and dust out. Both trims have 17-inch wheels. The profile looks identical to the combustion engine version. The Eco-Electric badge differentiates the electric from combustion engine on the rear. The cargo space has two shelves, with the charging cable and battery meter stored underneath. The top trim gets a cargo cover. Lots of space is in the rear seat for this class of vehicle. The battery pack is underneath the floor, reducing hump size. Top trim has heated rear seats. The reviewer is impressed with the livability and lack of compromises in the vehicle. Seats go down easy. There's a design touch where the bottom part of the speaker’s shape blends with the cup holder. With the top trim, there’s the premium Harmon Kardon audio system. The range is on the left, with a bunch of options in the middle, and the speed is on the right. Economical driving style gives more range. The energy flow shows the wheels regenerating power. The top trim has a heads up display with an option to change to various colors. All active safety systems are standard. There are two trims: premium, which is the base model, and limited, which is the top trim model. The premium trim gets an up to 248 kilometers range, 134 horsepower, 291 pounds per feet of torque, and a 39.2-kilowatt-hour battery. The limited trim gets up to 383 kilometers of range, 201 horsepower, 291 pound feet of torque, and 64-kilowatt hour battery. The reviewer would pay the extra 9000 dollars to get the limited trim. That's if it was up to the reviewer to get the limited trim because it's about the range for them. Everyone gets active safety. Level one charger for premium takes 36 hours. Level two takes 6 hours 10 minutes. DC fast charge at 57 minutes. The Level One Charger for limited takes 59 hours. The level two takes 9 hours and 35 minutes. The DC fast charge is 75 minutes. The reviewer likes the seats and infotainment system. This vehicle feels like an everyday car with good power.
