TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2013 Kia Soul

2013 Kia Soul Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearComment
The seats are similarly sufficient for casual around-town driving but subpar for even moderate distances. Less than half way through our four-hour drive the hard, flat cushions grew uncomfortable. see full Kia Soul review

2014 0 The front seat is every bit as uncomfortable as the previous model. No improvement here. A tall person will be more comfortable sitting in the rear seat. see full Kia Soul review
