2010 Kia Soul Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2010 4dr Hatch 142-horsepower 2.0L I4
4-speed automatic FWD
Lots of headroom and legroom. Seat and wheel adjustments easy to make. Feels larger than it actually is. see full Kia Soul review
2010 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.6L I4
5-speed manual FWD
Comfort of an intermediate-size car, with everything in easy reach. Able to maintain comfortable safety belt adjustment. see full Kia Soul review
2010 4dr Hatch 142-horsepower 2.0L I4
4-speed automatic FWD
Tons of headroom. My daughter has lots of visibility in the back while in her car seat. Full size adults can sit back there in comfort. see full Kia Soul review
2010 4dr Hatch 142-horsepower 2.0L I4
4-speed automatic FWD
Lots of head, hip, knee, and foot room. The cushions seem to get less comfortable after a solid 2-3 hours driving. But, at least around town, this is one car in which you can ask friends to sit in the back without being ashamed. see full Kia Soul review
2010 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.6L I4
5-speed manual FWD
Large enought for two adults see full Kia Soul review
2010 4dr Hatch 142-horsepower 2.0L I4
5-speed manual FWD
I am over 6 feet tall and even with the moon roof, I have a ton of headroom and leg room. see full Kia Soul review
2010 4dr Hatch 142-horsepower 2.0L I4
5-speed manual FWD
My kids are tall too and with my seat adjusted to my liking, there is a ton of head room and leg room in the back. Love the folding rear seats. see full Kia Soul review
2010 4dr Hatch 142-horsepower 2.0L I4
5-speed manual FWD
You can fit another two big people behind you even when you are a 6 footer. Headrests for all passangers. Safety side curtains for all passengers. see full Kia Soul review

2007 4dr Sedan 173-horsepower 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD
I know it is a smaller sedan, but even with the front seats shoved up to that your knees are in the dashboard, that leaves just enough room for an average human in back. Under normal front seat conditions, crushed knees in back. see full Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport review
2006 4dr Sedan turbocharged 230hp 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD
Seats are very large and not built for comfort for a thinner person. see full Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport review
2006 4dr Wagon turbocharged 230hp 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD
The rear seat leg room is too small for American sized adults. A little more room would have made this car a lot more livable when family comes to town. This may be THE reason why I upgrade to a midsize car once this car dies. see full Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport review
