TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Kia Soul
| 2012 Kia Soul Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
| Year | Comment | |
| 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 | ||

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2012 | 2dr Hatch 121-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Rear seat room is extremely limited but it's a Mini...not a mini van! see full Mini Hardtop review |
| 2012 | 2dr Hatch 121-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
We're tall and have room to spare. see full Mini Hardtop review |
| 2011 | 2dr Hatch turbocharged 181hp 1.6L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Small children, petite women and Hobbits may sit in the back on short trips. Otherwise, forget it. It's a MINI! see full Mini Hardtop review |
