2014 Kia Soul Photo Gallery

New exterior includes chunkier grille surround.

All-new, yet indistinguishable from the first-gen Soul at a glance.

First-gen Soul had sharper creases.

Cute, perhaps, but not pretty.

New shade of green more sophisticated. Alien green, as seen on the 2012, remains available.

Larger tail lamps, floating panel in tailgate.

Apparently these tail lamps weren't large enough.

Better materials and more sophisticated design inside, but some fun sacrificed.

Sand interior no longer available with the 2014.

Some iffy materials, haphazard design.

Center stack slightly canted towards the driver.

Physical controls well designed, but voice recognition fail.

Artful design. Real metal would make silver bits better, but not expected at this price.

Tweeter design provides some of the visual pop of a megabuck B&O system, audio quality just okay.

A little less roomy than before, but still adult-friendly.

Much wider rear opening than the first gen

Rear seat does not fold flat. Fiat can hold more.

Smaller rear opening of first-gen Soul.

Adequate power, just don't expect any thrills

Nothing special under the nothing special cover.
