Thinking about the top speed of the Kia Soul across different model years? I’ve driven a few and can share some thoughts. My '14 Soul is comfy and fun, but isn’t a speed demon — I think it tops out around 120 mph, but I never really push it that far in city driving.
And the newer models? They’re definitely faster with improved engines. The 2020 version had a bit more pep and I reckon pushes past 130 mph easier. But, just curious, does anyone know if the drivetrain differences matter much?
I remember a buddy telling me the turbocharged versions are snappier, but he also said they aren’t as fuel-efficient. No big deal for me, though, cause I love the cargo space over pure speed. Who else drives these for the practicality? Any tips on the older models?
I’ve driven the Kia Soul in Seattle, and it’s surprisingly zippy for a crossover! Not as fast as a sports car tho, but it gets there n reaches about 115 mph. Plus, the reliability’s ace, all while makin’ life easy. Parts doin’ well too!
I’ve driven a Kia Soul from '12 here in Canada, and let me tell ya, it ain’t the speed demon. Usualy clocked at like 120 km/h max. But man, the handling’s tight, especially in the summer. Ideal for those weekend road trips out west. Not about goin fast but comfy, ya know? Gotta keep it chill, like sippin’ iced tea, not rocket science!
I once had a Kia Soul in Seattle, and even though it’s not factual rocket fuel, it had its charm, ya know? The top speed’s usually around 110 mph, but who’s gunning it that fast? It’s sweeter for the city life with its nifty space and good mileage. Plus, maneuverability’s ace in traffic jams! US states like Oregon loved it, cozier drives but still plenty of spirit! The Soul sure has a quirky, peppy vibe to it, pleasing for the city crowd.
I’ve got a Kia Soul 2014 model, and it’s pretty fun driving around Vancouver. The top speed’s something like 110 mph, which is fine for city chuggin’. Never hit top, but highway cruising at max is smooth! Not fast, but totally does its job with all the city driving I do. Not everyone’s looking for speed with the Soul, but it handles well enough – I haven’t found a better fit for urban life yet!
I’ve got a soft spot for the Kia Soul, always thought it was a fun ride. In Canada, I was clockin’ it doing about 110 km/h—surprisingly smooth at that. I didn’t exactly race it to its limit, but it’s stable enough for city driving with a bit of highway zest on Saturday nights. Perfect for zippin’ around the GTA without any drama. Not the fastest, but it’s got character, ya know? Plus, those cool features make every ride feel special without breaking the bank.
I’ve driven a 2015 Kia Soul up in Canada, and it’s definitely not a speed demon, but it sure is fun on the curvier roads! Top speed is between 115-120 mph, though I rarely push it that far. Great for city cruising and those lake-side road trips! You won’t be Olympics fast, but it’s solid. Still affordable too, which ain’t bad.
I ve driven a Kia Soul back in Cali, and lemme tell ya, it’s not a rocket but does alright! It cruises around 114 mph, so not exactly speeding demons, but crazy dependable and super chill for the regular drive. Ive gotta say, it never lets me down which is a big win for me!
I’ve got one in Boston, and it’s a solid ride. Top speed’s around 130 mph, but don’t you dare test that out in the city, haha. My buddy in Toronto had the same model and we used to race around empty parking lots just for kicks. It’s not a monster, but it’s fun and handles like a champ on those twisty roads, ya know? Gettin’ me and my crew around still got to this day!
I’ve driven the Kia Soul in sunny California, and its top speed is about 109 mph. I have found that while it’s not the fastest, it’s super practical for city life with enough pep for highway zooms. Back in Toronto, classmate bragged about its peppy handling. All in all, it’s chill for errands and quick jaunts, but not built for drag racing. Range is solid, too, makes an everyday ride less of a hassle!
I’ve always thought the Kia Soul was more about style over speed, driving it down I95. Top speed’s decent, but it’s the fun & quirky vibes that keep us on the road, ya know? Great for the everyday cruise.
I’ve driven the Kia Soul in Seattle, and though it’s more about urban vibes than speed, it hits around 130 mph. Perfect for city life, not the track! 
Balance over speed, ya know?
I’ve had a Kia Soul for a couplea years here in Toronto, and I gotta say, it’s surprisingly spry! I can’t say it’s a racing machine, but hitting 120 km/h feels peppy! I’ve read that tops out somewhere 'round 157 km/h for some newer models. Not super fast, but enough for zippy chases with other Soul owners without feeling like you’re stuck in molasses. For city life, it’s a real gem!
So, I was at a car meet the other day here in California, and someone was boasting about their Kia Soul’s speed. Honestly, I’ve always thought the Soul was more about space and style than racing stripes, but it’s got enough zip to keep you in the right lane. Torquey too, ain’t it? Kinda fun in a compact package, embracing the city vibe while still getting around fast enough not to be an MPG snag. Still, yeah, it’s not a racehorse, but it rolls steady.
I used to own a 2015 Kia Soul in Toronto—topped out at like 120 mph, according to the brochure. It’s comfy but needs a push to reach the top speed! Fun, but not a speedster, know what I’m sayin’?
I’ve been drivin’ my Kia Soul around Dallas, and it’s peppy for city runs. Unlike some fancier rides, it’s not all about speed—I like knowin’ it’s reliable and fun at its top speed of 110 mph. Not racin’, just cruisin’ with style. It’s lit for the daily grind.
I’ve seen the Kia Soul crushin’ it on some backroads in Cali—def not a speed demon though. Around 105 mph if memory serves, but it really shines on winding roads. It’s all about that stylish practicality, not racing stripes and Lambos, u know? Super comfy, too!
Growing up in Toronto, I’ve always been curious about how cars like the Kia Soul stack up. Their top speed is around 110 mph, which is decent for city driving but not exactly a sports car. People here prefer practicality, and the Soul fits right in. If speed’s your thing, you might need to look elsewhere!
